In no way shape or form, can someone who has a reasonable knowledge of hockey, actually believe that Ferland's worst game is better than Bollig's best game. It is simply not even remotely close to the truth.
I'm sure almost all of us can agree that we feel Ferland playing well is for sure an upgrade on many fronts from Bollig, but the overvaluing of popular players when comparing them to "un-popular" players and the hyperbole used to explain the differences between those players is really hard to take sometimes. |
You are correct.... in the Washington 6-2 spanking Ferland was so bad that Hartley gave Bollig 11:36 of ice time and kept Ferland down to only 10:45.
So out of Ferland's 6 games and bollig's 12 games there is 1 example where Hartley thought that Bollig's best game was better than Ferland's worst.
