a tale of two Brothers // almost all quiet in the West...

The regular season has not yet started for the Janser, but that does not mean there is nothing to report.

 

Marcel spent his sommer in Ontario with his dad as they have enjoying the outdoors in common. They thought it would be a great idea to participate in a big fishing contest on Lake Ontario. They came near nowhere the top, but their haul was plenty for a week of salmon and steelheads, and hence they did not really feel like losers. They also took some fun cruise on Kurt's Allseas 92, a proper all-steel, full displacement explorer vessel. The old man was in the transport business and has the required captain's patent. For the expedition down St. Lawrence and further to Newfoundland for some whale watching. Unfortunately, the elusive sea mammals were not to be seen. But that did not bother the Janser boys and a lot of fun has been had anyway, with the siblings acting as deckhands for their old man and put hockey in the back of their mind for a brief few days.

Calgary is in rebuild mode and some of the veterans have retired (Perry and Klamasteris) and enjoy their well deserved rest and/or after-hockey career. Others like Jokinen, Nasherov, Reinhart and Eagles have been traded to other franchises in exchange for prospects and draft picks. Funk's future is still open.

At the moment the roster looks a tad depleted:

In net, Dahl has being called up and veteran Vaughn will in all likelyhood fill the backup role.

The only defender on the payroll at the moment is Funk, who will be a UFA in this offseason, and is probably looking for a contender for his final year. This may be the chance Marcel has been looking for to play in the big league.

Thing look a bit better upfront. Johnson has agreed to stay in Calgary for a last hurrah as the physical forward he has always been. Kotkakoivu has extended his contract for an other three seasons and will be one of the centerpieces of the Wrangers for years to come. And last but not least, Swiss Center-turned-winger Janser has signed a five year contract extension with a non-trading-clause.

 

Speaking of the young Rotkreuz native, he is also participating in the renowned ProAm tournament, where his Dekes of Hazard reign supreme. Daniel is leading some of the categories like FO% (61.69%), Hits (82) and points for a center (31 pts). In other stats, such as assists (26), PIM (39), power play goals (3), game winning goals (2) and hits received (70) he is still amongst the top ten. This certainly is a promising starting point and we keep our fingers crossed for more of the same.

 

Here are his stats in the tournament so far:

17GP, 5g, 26a, 31pts, +2, 39 PIM, 82 hits, 8sb, 3ppg, 2 gwg, FO% 61.69

 

He also fought three times to a tie and was declared man of the match four times.

 

We will keep our readers updated on the brothers' career.
