In terms of Ferland, I loved the player when he played hard and physical, but he was all too often very comparable to Rene Bourque, he could absolutely dominate a game, or even a stretch of games, and then go absolutely silent.

I hope he gets paid this offseason, contract year and all, but I think i'm still very happy with the trade the way it went
If true, the value of Fox in that trade is the difference between Ferland and Bennett. That will be interesting to track.
