Islanders fans, saw this article and thought it might be of interest given Ryan's former ties to your organization...

No proof, so hearsay.
Did you get those rumors off HFBoards or from Mel Gibson's cab driver in "Conspiracy Theory"?
Jankowski has a pretty good reputation in scouting circles, and I think Hockey Canada's trust in him speaks volumes.
In any case- I have no real connection to the Isles- just thought the story would be of interest. Carry on.
The Isles handled their 08 and 09 drafts pretty meticulously, so for anyone who then watched the 2nd day of the Islanders' 2010 draft and saw how listlessly they picked, ultimately wondering what in all of God's great green nature was going on with the taking of Cody Rosen - an absolute non-prospect - in the 7th, that person was surely scratching his or her head.
Most of us here were.
To then see Jankowski get fired without rhyme or reason within like two days of the draft and to NEVER get any explanation as to why, well, it's pretty doggone clear that there was some serious behind-the-scenes hanky panky going on there, especially in light of who Rosen's father is and what kind of financial clout he has.
That it comes to him now getting a gig with TSN, well, whatever...
