I wouldn't be all that disappointed if Jankowski gets sent down to start the season. Where is he going to play on the team? As it looks, probably the 4th line. Why start him now in a spot where he'll get 7 or 8 minutes per game when they can send him down, let him get 18-20 minutes as the top player on the farm team and bring him up when an injury occurs. Let him come up and earn and keep that spot.
