The downfall was we needed to continue to rebuild our depth, and only getting one first rounder instead of three wouldn't help that at all.

Based on what has happened since then, would you rather have MacKinnon or Monahan, Poirier and Klimchuk? I'm happy with how it turned out, but I wonder how we would be reacting to games if it was MacKinnon out there with Sven and Jiri instead of Sean.
I was one of the posters that wanted Feaster to do everything in his power to get the 1st over-all. I also wanted one of Lindholm, Nurse or Nichushkin if we had kept the #6.

Boy have I ever changed my mind.

So to answer your question, without a doubt in my mind Monahan + Poirier + Klimchuk >>>>>>>>> McKinnon
