Default Hardest hitter/body checker on the Flames?

Who is the current Flames that can hit the hardest?

Loved this hit from Sarich:

I don't know if it was the hardest hit, but Ferland on Seguin early this year was brutal. It wasn't flashy and Seguin didn't go head over heels, but you could see the pain in his face when he got stapled and compressed into the boards.

Ferland. Like someone above said, not always the big flashy TV replay hits, though he has his share of those too, but you see the pain he inflicts on dudes when he hits them.

Bouma................the boards take a beating on his missed hits, as does his own body.

Someone here said it best a few months ago, not sure who though. But I'll never forget it.

Something the the affect of: 'Ferland must have the density of a neutron star'.
Haha so true. Ferland is my answer.
