And then you set the lines, and tell the team, 'come on boys, we're going to get Janko some points tonight. He's going to throw everything he has out there, and we're going to support him.'
First line minutes, powerplay time.
Get the team outside of their heads and playing for someone, and not numbers. Maybe even get Janko to figure out the kind of player he could be.
In a dream world. Peters isn't that guy.

In a dream world? Peters sets his game plan around getting Jankowski a point? This all seems really silly to me.
As said above Jankowski is a fringe player. You don't play him a bunch of minutes that he hasn't earned as a feel good story.
