Drouin and Jones have excelled this season, but Mackinnon is who you choose if he is available, from a Calgary perspective.
Only really have two seasons to judge them both.

Drouin: slightly below ppg in first season/more than doubled his production in the second season

Mackinnon: slightly above ppg in first season/slightly above first seasons

Drouin improved drastically from his first season, and it doesn't look like a fluke when you see him dominate the play. Also seems more disciplined when it comes to taking penalties.
