It should surprise some of the people that I argued with last season about Ferland.
How many games did I watch last season where I thought, wow Ferland looked real solid there and then went in the PGT thread and saw multiple posters claim Ferland was invisible because the broadcast didn't show replays of hits of his multiple times. How many times last year did Ferland show good hockey sense, puckhandling and then I'd go in threads and people are calling him a 4th line plug who doesn't show up consistently.
Ferland is a very good player. His combination of size, speed, physicality and skill is very valuable and fairly rare in this league. Love that style of player.
