On this team Ferland has the hardest shot(and can get it through traffic cleanly), the best accelleration, good vision, reliable two-way play despite the occasional giveaway, is a good screener, is simply excellent at takeaways, and he's clearly still developing rougher aspects of his game (backhand, tapping in rebounds, and deflecting point shots). I don't see a finished package at all.
I see no reason he can't be a 25/25 guy at some point before he starts to slow down physically. I don't think he's got "elite" upside or anything, but I don't see why he can't be a poor man's version of Jamie Benn. Style-wise it's actually who comes to mind for me as no one else in the league really has the same package.
One thing I would like is for Ferly to get more PK/PP time over guys like Bouma/Frolik respectively.
