I always like Jankowski. I also thought he had a great rookie season, and his goals were all high-level shots, not fluky bounces. He then got some flukey bounces in the 2nd year. 3rd year, he completely fell apart.
What he is doing in Carolina isn't surprising to me. Just hope he keeps it up (and I doubt he will). He scored 4 goals in a game here once (2nd season I think?). When things are going right, you just keep on going. Confidence in this league is a hell of a drug too.
As for Colborne, IIRC, he got hurt in Colorado early on and then apparently had concussion issues. That's where his career derailed. He only played that one season for Colorado, and then tried to make a comeback the following season in the AHL. Called it a career after that. I appreciated his time here in Calgary - I remember his impossible to stop shootout move going around the goalie with his reach. Hopefully he is healthy and concussion-symptom-free now.
