There's no doubt the Flames need a centre, but has MacKinnon proven he is the best player? I'm okay whether the Flames pick him, Jones or Drouin...maybe even Barkov. In fact, as I stated on another thread, if the Flames win the lottery, and identify one of the above as their guy, and know they can get the guy at number three, then why not trade down and pick up more picks? They'd have to be sure they could get their guy at 2/3/4, but they should look into it.
