Earlier this week, Mark Jankowski signed his entry-level deal with the Calgary Flames and an ATO for the AHL Stockton Heat, fulfilling the wishes of both player and club to arrive at a deal before the end of the regular season.
This came just a few days after the end of Jankowski's college career, a double-overtime loss to Minnesota-Duluth in the NCAA tournament as his Providence College Friars pursued their second straight national title. It was not to be.
That, then wrapped up the frankly very odd career of Jankowski, who is already receiving considerable "Please ignore the draft position at which he was selected" talk from Flames brass.
