That's why, for me, it comes down to the asset management and risk management.
If he signs, no harm no foul. But if he doesn't...

I think the risk versus reward is heavily in favour of sending him back for his 4th season.
He put up disappointing numbers in his 3rd season. The Flames apparently felt he wasn't ready and that it was best for him to go back and develop in college.
If he doesn't sign, we get the 51st pick in the 2017 draft, which I think is very close to Jankowski's value today. It's a hedged bet that makes sense to me. We won't lose a ton either way.
