I really like Ferland (my favorite player) but I think the Lucic comparison is crazy. I see more of a honest Ville Niemenen type player. Probably top 9, solid top 6 would be hopeful but unlikely though I can very well see him riding the coat tails on a Gaudreau-Monahan line (sometimes, a player just fits, like McAmmond on a Iginla line).

I don't think Flash is wrong, though I wouldn't write him off either... Lucic appears to be a far more intimidating, far more engaging player... and that gets him a lot of points.

BTW he has 7 total goals, not just 4.
