If Jankowski turns into a top 6 player, this is a huge victory.

What do Flames fans think about the odds of Jankowski turning into a top six player at this point?
Personally, I think his offence is trending short for a top sixer. He didn't kill it in college offensively, and while his AHL season was good, I wouldn't say his numbers were eye popping for a 22 year old.
He tracks similar to Brian Boyle offensively. Behind guys like Haula or Jimmy Vesey.
If Jankowski sticks in the NHL I'd guess his upside at 25-35 points. Something like that.
Does that seem fair or unfair?
