That's assuming McDonald stays stagnant and doesn't progress, which all goaltenders do somewhat at this point in their career. Where either's ceiling is, I don't really know, but both are still projects for at least 3 years.

That's true but McDonald didn't really get a chance to play regularly until he went to Charlottetown mid-season. I expect he'll improve a lot as a first-string goalie for the full season in 2014-15.
