I'm blinded by the fact that we needed a number one centre for Iggy for so long. I guess my brain is now hardwired into wanting to gain a proper one for our rebuilding team. I've never studied these young athletes, never seen them play in front of my eyes, and outside of the WJC I've only seen Mac/Drou/Jones a total of 3 times.
I like Jones. I think he's going to be a stud. I just can't shake the thought that we pass up on MacKinnon (for example) and then we don't have another opportunity to get a franchise centre.
I hope Colorado wants Seth bad enough that they truly 'out tank us' or if we somehow end up below them..that they deal their pick+ for ours.
