Red lines represent the move to the wing/Jankowski

Upper graphs are out right, bottom graphs are accumulated.

Really points out a big change as blue (for) are bigger than (red) against. He's really cut back on high danger chance against as well (Jankowski).

If you take out the Edmonton game it's a very different season accumulated, and that's true for the whole team.
I think it's important to note his circumstances, too, for full context.
Pre-wing/Jankowski offensive zone starts: 51%
Post-wing/Jankowski offensive zone starts: 74%
