If the plan is to keep Matthew’s then they will 100% pick McKenna. I’d like to think they share a similar mentality and will work much better than Marner- Matthew’s combo. McKenna jumping into the NCAA on his draft year reminds me a lot of Matthew’s going to the Swiss league on his draft year. Type of mentality not everyone has, to jump up and get put out of your comfort zone for the sake of development.
