Ferkland is a great guy to have on your team because he is the true definition of someone who can play up and down the roster.

He has shown us in the past three years that he can score, he can muck it up and he's fast and he can play whatever role is needed (although I wish he would've played tougher this season)

The thing is that you kind of lose that versatility by needing him to be your RW1.

If there is someone else who can be your RW1 then you are able to have Ferland be the lineup floater who replaces brouwer in that role (since basically thats how GG used brouwer 5on5)
