I think Lowry should have been the pick but he wasn't close to being that much better that he was "screwed". Other teams have had good seasons as well.

Jones can have all the numbers he wants Holtby played better in my view.

And you can ignore the fact that the team that Jones played for not helping but it played a big role in his play this season.

Still being a very close second is nothing to sneeze at and certainly nowhere close to being screwed.
A 59-9 record isn't "that much better" than a 49-18 record? On which planet? Also... other teams may have "had good seasons too," but there's only been one season in WHL history that was better than this year's Hitmen.

Couple all of that with the fact that this team carried very little in the way of expectations going into this season, and it's very clear that Lowry, indeed, got screwed.
