I am still one of the minority that likes to have a heavyweight and thinks that a good one can add a lot to a team, I really do love guys like Ferland. He can actually ride shotgun on almost any line if he continues developing without being a detriment offensively (and as much as I love guys like McGrattan, he simply would drag an offensive line down).
Ferland will be a huge fan-favorite if he continues on his trajectory. Closest thing to a Gary Roberts and Jarome Iginla (not that I am saying he will have that high of an offensive ceiling as those two, but you get the idea) this team has had in the pipe for years.
