Obviously the two goalies were super close and it was by the narrowest of margins they selected McDonald. I don't think anyone has cause or justification to be bemoaning that decision yet. Goalies are probably the worst position to try and judge at that age, we may not know for another 5 years or more which of the two will end up the best.

Exactly! Go waaayyy down memory lane, the year the Flames drafted Kidd, there was this kid still on the board and the Devils drafted him. He went on to have a pretty stellar career and won several cups.
