Fantasy Summary

A smart, two-way forward, Janicke isn’t afraid to sacrifice his body for a big hit or to block a shot and loves to shoot the puck.

July 2023 – Janicke finished his fourth season with Notre Dame in the NCAA. He ranked second on the team in points and didn’t show much improvement, if any, over the previous season. He will return to Notre Dame for the 2023-24 season. An undersized prospect, Janicke is running out of time to prove he can become an NHL player. Naftali Clifton

December 2019 – A former 1st overall pick by the Central Illinois Flying Aces in 2018, Janicke played one season for them, wearing the ‘C’ and scoring 48 points in 58 games. He now plays for the Notre Dame Irish in the NCAA. He started the season on a nice streak, having seven points through his first seven games, but he still needs some adjustment time playing against older and stronger players as an 18-year-old freshman. Janicke was invited to preliminary camp for the 2020 US National Junior Team. He is a two-way forward who isn’t afraid to hit or block a shot. He would play a bottom-six role for this team, but could chip in offensively as he possesses an above average shot. Lucas Main
