There will be a bidding war for him.
Would there really be? Thankfully it appears the UFA talent at Forward is pretty high this year which may drive some of these prices down, of course a lot of these guys still have a chance and will get signed but at the moment you're looking at..

Forward UFA’s ahead of Ferland:
Panarin, Pavelski, Skinner, Lee, Stone, Duchene, Zuccarello, Hayes

Forward comparable UFA's with Ferland:
Simmonds, E Staal, Silfverberg, Eberle
