I remember people talking about how well he played in the playoffs against the Ducks

Results over a large sample size, because it's impossible to remove the luck component out of small sample sizes. Like for example...
1) 4 Games .
2) He wasn't the only guy on his line to put up those numbers. The other two guys just happened to pad their stats on the power play (where Ferland was not a participant). Take out PP scoring
Monahan
0-0-0
Gaudreau
0-0-0
Unless you wanna die on that "Ferland dragged Gaudreau and Monahan down so they didn't score" hill with Ricardo... you just have to admit that it's absurd to bring up that stat line when that line simply dominated the chances.
