I wanted Jones then and I still want Jones now. However, would Jones be the same if he developed under our organization compared to going from Nashville to Columbus? Definitely a "what if" situation, but I don't know if he would've been this good as he's showing as a Blue Jacket. Overall, I picked Nathan because I still have some faith in MacKinnon.

Definitely a "what-if" scenario. He got the luxury of playing under (and learning from) Shea Weber. Here, it would have been Erik Johnson. Big difference.

Ultimately, I always thought Jones would become a legit top-pairing guy but now he looks like a franchise anchor back there who will be a legitimate #1 for years to come. If he was here, god only knows. Maybe he develops slide-syndrome like EJ.

Dat bump. But anyone who seriously thinks the Avs should have drafted anyone but MacK at this point should just go find a different team to cheer for.
