Good question. It's a toss up between organizational need and best player available. In this case the best player available might also be the best player in the draft - Drouin. So I think it's a pretty easy choice.
I still think that if we miss out on Mackinnon in our top 3/4/5 pick, we should dangle the other 2 first round picks we have to move further up and try and get that center (Barkov).
