Looks like we are almost all in agreement, Ferland is exactly what the first line needs. An assertive player that likes to shoot and isn't afraid of getting dirty.
belsarius' numbers are spot on. If Ferland plays hard consistently he gives the Flames something they want on the first line and I think he gets that ice time and by extension the good results.
