Yeah it's a big year for Janko and I'd expect him to tackle it well.
Hype really has nothing to do with anything. Jankowski was always a long shot to crack the team this fall based on his lack of pro experience, the fact he really could stand to fill out more and our centre depth. The AHL always made more sense for him despite some fans hoping the Flames would play him out of the position and convert him to a winger. He lasted about as long as I was expecting.
