C Mark Jankowski - Providence College, NCAA (2012, 21st, CGY)

[mrdonkey]

Where's the hate in that post? He put up a couple of points against a terrible team.

That goal is a beauty, and reminds me of the highlights everyone saw of him before the 2012 draft, hopefully it's a sign to come that he's getting his mojo back, but until we start seeing moves like that against actual competition there's no reason to get too excited over a 2 point game.

Just my interpretation, but bringing up the fact that it was a 10-4 win against a terrible team suggests sarcasm. Like only getting a couple points in such a lopsided game is not worth getting excited about.

I have just immediately come to expect that anything said about Jankowski on these forums is either an exercise to downplay him, or be some kind of comedian.

The poster was just showing a very nice goal by Jankowski. He wasn't bragging or anything.

He's not going to get to 220. The kid is a beanpole and so is his dad. I could see him playing around 200.

What a comment!

Does his dad have professional trainers?, since he's not even an athlete the answer is probably no. Not sure why people look at the parents to determine what kind of size they'll end up with. If your driven and have a 6'4 frame 220 is easy with proper nutrition and workouts.

By all accounts Jankowski seems very driven.

At Flames camp he was listed at just a hair under 6'4 and was up to 185 pounds. That was a 15 pound gain over the previous year's camp. He still has a ways to go to beef up to the level you're talking, but I think if he hits the 200-210 range he will be tough to handle. He definitely sounds driven and has said he's going to commit to the things the Flames asked of him after camp. I would look for a more feisty year from Jankowski and a lot more work in the weight room to continue his physical maturation process.

If Janko can play at a PPG pace all season, we should be very happy in Calgary.

It's not that easy to just gain 35 lbs of lean muscle mass.

Its possible, just not very likely. Most lanky NHLers have a lot of problems keeping weight on throughout the season.

Playing weight at 205 lbs like an Eric Staal seems more likely then him just exploding bulk wise to 220 lbs. The kid just isn't built like a Kopitar.

Just because you want him to reach 220 doesn't mean its going to happen.

 

[King In The North]

205 would be realistic.

ITT people who don't lift talking about gaining muscle

Genetics play a part but not all. I was 6'3 165 at 18, now 10 years later I'm 6'3 225. It's possible to put that much on a lean frame just depends on your goals. That doesn't mean that it will equate to better hockey performance..bigger muscles does not equal faster or more goals

I just want to see him improve on last years numbers (by a decent amount) and continue putting on weight.

Ya, me too.

I'd like to see him finish with a PPG rate minimum. So far, so good!

I hope you're not serious, there are countless athletes and regular gymgoers who surpass their parents in terms of physical strength due to advancements in nutrition and training compared to years ago. Do you really think all NFL players have parents who are physical freaks?

but look at Drew Miller. The guy just can't get past 170. He makes it work, though.

 

[Patmac40]

He'll have no trouble getting his weight up. He's been a late bloomer physically his whole life as evidenced by that ridiculous growth spurt he had.

Is that all? You are small.

I am 6ft 8 and weigh 260 . I am 11% body fat. I have a size 14 shoe. Big feet I know. When I was 18 I was still only 6ft 4 and 190 . I was a short skinny little runt.

The only problem is some of the women I date are too fragile. I have to be very careful .

Yea he has crazy baby-face and you can tell he is likely going to hit his "weight" at around 23-24 when his hormones slow down.

I am 7ft 6 and weigh 290. I am 11% sure I'm not fat. I have a size 20 shoe. Used to have two of them but my dog took the left one as his new bed.

The only problem is the Toronto Raptors GM keeps bugging me to at least do a try out with the team and I don't even play basketball.

I am 9ft 10 and weigh 350. I am 5% body fat. I have a size 21 shoe. Big feet i know. When i was 18 i was still only 6ft 8 and 260. I was a short skinny little runt.

The only problem is some of the women i date are too fragile. I have to be very careful not to crush their puny brains with my massive size.

I got a good chuckle, thank you.

I expect Janko to be around the 210 mark in his prime should he make the NHL

Is 205 lbs with his skillset going to be a problem? Or is he still 'megabust'?

 

[sabresEH]

Has anyone seen him play this year? Or do we wanna keep talking about mens bodies.

Definitely men's bodies. Is there something wrong with that?

 

[Noori]

10-4 win over a terrible team, solid job putting up a couple points.

He stopped getting ice time when his team got up big. But of course it's Jankowski so any excuse to call him out or belittle him will be promptly jumped on by every hilarious HF comic.

 

[LukeD]

Still don't know what to expect from Janko.
