Well he still follows The Calgary Flames on twitter...

I counter and say he signs and debuts against Anaheim!

Unless his twitter bio says "Seeking new opportunities", I wouldn't be concerned.
Until then, we can hopefully rely on the Jon Gillies card:

For a couple seconds his twitter said "I hate the stupid Flames and their stupider fans" but he ninja edited it.

...And Vesey still has "Nashville Predators Prospect" on Twitter. Therefore, Vesey will sign with Nashville, but Jankowski won't sign with Calgary.

Freeway is Ryan Pike, the guy who put out that tweet.

80% sure that Mark Jankowski removed a reference to the #Flames from his Twitter bio.

Thanks! Had read those quotes, just wasn't aware that Freeway was Ryan Pike. I thought there were other concerning comments being made :P

Removing the team from your Twitter bio is the new negotiation tactic.

That's some Lebron level drama right there. Did Jankowski also mention that he'd prefer Calgary if only his buddies could sign here? Is he feuding with teammates and the media?

I really don't care either way. He's no better than Agostino and won't be relevant to the Flames for at least two seasons even if he does become an NHLer. IMO too much time is being spent talking about Jankowski because of where he was drafted. He's just another prospect with upside.
I still stand by the notion that Treliving isn't offering him a great contract and they're fighting over bonuses because he's not that high on Treliving's "care list" if he really wanted him and a little money was the issue then he'd be signed by now.
I still think he doesn't sign here and it'll be because Treliving wouldn't budge. And that will be ok and the pick we get will be nice.
|
And I counter with the notion that Treliving likes him, wants to sign him and will sign him. Tomorrow. Maybe Thursday.

Having said that I don't think Treliving really minds if he walks and is going to be a hard negotiator. If Jankowski doesn't want to play ball he will have no problem letting him walk.
Again that's my opinion on baseless speculation.
And if Treliving made this a priority they wouldn't still be negotiating about bonuses. He's made him a priority IF Jankowski wants to sign under his terms.

I have no insider information. The implication of my comment was A JOKE, in that the worst-case scenario of this situation (Jankowski not signing) would be worse than a player no longer following another player on Instagram.
