Ferland's grit? He is not even playing, he might in fact be permanently damaged. He has basically had an upper body injury(chronic concussion suspected) for the 6 weeks or so. Dougie has been really good though.
I really look at that as a 2 for 1 though. I am sure Dougie will walk in two years though, that will be a very expensive contract. Hannifin has been overwhelmed and has to continue to grow.
