Ferland - along with Monahan and Bennett - was arguably our best player during the Flames brief playoff spell last month. He's pretty much who he is at this point; streaky and doesn't play as physically as he should at times. But when he's on, especially in playoff mode and actually willing to throw the body around he's fun to watch, with sneaky good speed and hands.
He probably shouldn't be on a top line, but I like the presence he brings...again, when he feels like it and remembers he's a good hitter. I'd like to see him stick around, good guy to have in the playoffs. We need more players with his physical presence, given we're currently a smaller team that gets pushed around a little bit and need to get bigger in such a physical division
