If everything goes really, really well for Jankowski, he may have as good a career as Frolik. I certainly wouldn't expect him to bring more to the table in his rookie season than Frolik does.

Jankowski can do things in traffic that Frolik can't do in open ice.

Production is not a singular measure of skill.
