Very smart player. Tireless worker. Very responsible defensively.
I would not be the least bit surprised if he makes the team next year. In fact I would be more surprised if he doesn't.

Agree 100%. Conroy said in an interview that he seriously was very very close to making the team out of camp this year. It was obvious reading between the lines the reasons he didn't was we couldn't realistically play him over Lazar, Stajan, and Brouwer. They were also confident that Jankowski would come up and secure a spot. He was still junior and team Canada eligible so in the end it was probably best to not rush his career (cough Oilers cough). He will get a long look at camp next year.
