So what he needs is a manipulative ######bag who'd rather a player sacrifice his safety, health, and enjoyment of the game to recreate some adrenaline fueled post-season fools gold rather than just play the game. Right.

Sorry if I prefer players play the game the way they enjoy playing the game while still being effective rather than playing the game the way one guy wants them to play the game from the comforts of behind the bench.

And yes, Ferland is still effective. If he wasn't he'd be behind Bollig on the depth chart. He must be doing something right considering he's the LW on the Backlund line, a role that isn't exactly handed out like candy.
