Confirmed with Link: Mark Jankowski signs ELC

[Johnny Hoxville]

Lebron also unliked the Cavs on Twitter, what does it all mean.

Jankowski removed the Calgary Flames prospect part out of his twitter bio, let the conspiracy theories begin..

Might I suggest citing the source of your info?

This is the tweet that started this and even he isn't sure when it was removed.This is hardly news unless his bio says he is a UFA

He's taking his talents to south beach and joining the Miami Heat..

 

[joeyabs]

He wants to take his talents closer to his mamma

If he's more valuable then the pick just sign him to a contract. Who cares about the extra year of ELC? If anything that would just give him more time to prove himself and get a bigger second contract. Playing hardball is stupid. Just get the guy in a red jersey.

FWIW - Janks still follows the flames on Twitter. If he wasn't planning on signing and was removing flames from his bio, he likely would unfollow them as well. Not saying he will or won't sign, but just extra information for anyone reading.

Don't know why after nearly 4 years I've become suddenly incredibly impatient. Sign the damn contract and claim your rightful place as best player of the 2012 draft.

 

[Flames Fanatic]

Could simply be he's preparing to change it to Flames player?

No you may not

No you may not

There is a word for giving vague information with the purpose of inciting panic.......

Apologies, next time I will cite the source.

As someone who's clearly Twitter-stalked Janko for longer than Pike, I can assure you the Flames missing from his bio is not a new development. His bio used to be a lot more informative, but it's only said "national champion" since he won the national championship.

In the meantime, the Calgary Sun just published an article featuring actual news in the form of quotes from his agent, who thinks he and the Flames made progress today. I'd be surprised if Janko wasn't signed by tomorrow or the day after.

that might be one of the better Francis articles I've read. Love this quote from Janko's agent.

“Calgary hasn’t done anything to dissuade Mark from being a Calgary Flame,†said Arnott, reiterating how great the Flames have been with Jankowski all along.

“This new regime, which did not draft him, did a great job supporting and developing him. They haven’t given him any reason to not be a Flame.â€

Maybe they are not as convinced on him as many here?

Seriously he could be the guy that looks good but produces nothing like Ferland.

If you were hoping for a compensatory pick, I've got bad news for you, son.

 

[moon*]

Dammit

I guess it was always the most likely outcome but still disappointing to hear.

 

[L13]

Never change, moon, never change.

 

[tmurfin]

Much rather have Janko! Good news!!

Nice! I guess they decided on two years starting next year instead of three years starting this year with the expansion draft. I approve.

I wonder if he can still sign an ATO with the Heat?

 

[Volica]

So I guess we will not be seeing him this season then, which is fine. Also protects the asset from the expansion.

I was actually happy to see this, this morning.

 

[Tkachuk Norris]

Niceeeee

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

Janko seems like a really character guy. So does Johnny, but it was important to him to use the leverage he had in his situation and play that 1 game and really was his right and no one can blame him. Janko seems like he's a really loyal guy, he says and does all the right things, I'll be really happy once this is all made official.
