If Nicholl's scored over 5 times his career high, or 230+ goals, while playing with Gretzky, like Ferland did under Gulutzan. I probably would have argued he did show progression.

Just compare the difference in opinion of Ferland in 2015 to 2017, and tell me this entire forum didn't think Ferland progressed. Like come on, why change history? I'm not a fan of Ferland and think he is an extreme weak spot (as a "top line RW") for this team. But to argue he didn't progress?

Also if Ferland can go from 4 goals to 21 with GretzkyGaudreau, why didn't they just put Bennett up there and have him win the Rocket Richard?
