Not to mention he is wildly inconsistent and a history of concussion problems.
You want to guarantee that package til he is 34 years old and for 31.5 million dollars?
Im a big Ferland guy, but that is a very very bad idea.

Very true. I wasn't even a big Ferly when he left, because I didn't like how he played when he was pushed down the roster. That said, I've got a bit of a hockey crush on the guy since he was here in town the other week giving interviews. I do think we should target a player with his skillset though...and that's a fairly rare skillset. It'd definitely come down to how much Tree believes in the person, because if he believes the effort will always be there I think you take the risk with the health.
