Both are going to be great players in the bigs.
Ok, fair enough, but I didn't get that from when you said Drouin could be a flash in the pan.

Secondly, perhaps there are some people bashing MacKinnon, but I'm not one of them, in fact I didn't mention anything about him, other than that Drouin is better. It's obvious he will be a good player as well. I'm just throwing it out there, if the topic about trading up to get MacKinnon is broached, then trading to get Drouin should be in the conversation, because he's the better player. The best retort so far, was when CaptainObvious mentioned our glaring need for a centerman, which made me pause to really consider MacKinnon, as much as I think Drouin is the best player available.
