MacKinnon isn't the sure-fire #1 everyone thought he would be - Jones, Drouin and Barkov all have had fantastic seasons. At this point, I'd definitely prefer Jones. The kid has all the tools to become a great defenseman.

I have no problem if people do have Jones ranked 1 (I think Mackinnon should be personally) what my issue was Alberta Beef saying that seeing all 3 in the tournament that is what he based his decision on. Considering the different situations in I think that is a fairly small, inaccurate sample base to make a lot of conclusions from.
