#revenge_of_feaster.
Imagine if instead of “we think he’s the best player in the draft” Feaster had simply said “we think he’s better than Yakupov”.

Only 28 more players to pass to be at the top! Connor Brown, Alex Galchenyuk, Brock McGinn, and Andreas Athanasiou beware!

He has done well for himself. His career earnings are $7.1M so even a 4th line guy makes enough money to retire in his mid 30's. Happy for the kid.

Agreed. Players like him catch so much crap from posters, but the reality is we would all love to have his story be our own.

What if Weisbrod was right all along?

Wasn't Feaster the one who said it?

Janko has now scored almost 10% of his career goals in his last 7 games.

I think his words were "Weisbrod thinks he might just be the best player in the draft"

Feaster was the ultimate blowhard and Weisbrod wasn't far behind. They did nothing but a massive disservice to the kid with those silly quotes. Most people forget that while Feaster had the "best player in the draft" quote Weisbrod took the cake with "He's Joe Nieuwendyk.'"

Jankowski was somehow both rushed and then held back. Good that he's carved out a pretty long NHL career.

Hertl is big enough.

That's what you call a late bloomer.

His 7 goals have come on 8 shots. I'm assuming he will not keep up that pace, lol.
