I'm heartless but I still prefer the TD Garden employee to go back to singing. He was good and didn't turn it into a show.

Wilson at least passes as a top line forward as much as I don't like his truly predatory mindset. Ferland is best suited for a 3rd line wreaking havoc.
Bergyesque
Been there, done that.
I get that, but don't agree.
Let's say Backes had laid that hit on a Canes' player and had to respond in a fight, and got a concussion, out for the season.
Wouldn't we find ridiculous that Backes had to respond to a legal hit?
The way to retaliate is to do the same; go hit their skill guys, Aho, Teravainen, Hamilton, etc.
Has anyone seen this?
Lol!

Let me preface this by saying that I wasn't a Ferland guy when people were talking about him around the TDL. I've watched some more CAR games recently though and actually think he'd be a solid add. While I agree that Ferland is best suited on the 3rd line, I found these few things interesting.
Since 2015 Ferland ranks 45th among LW's in points and 57th in P/GP (min 150gp). So if you figure 31 team in the NHL, production wise he's a #2 on a bottom 3rd team, but ideally a #3 (like we both think)
Since 2015 here is Ferland's production vs Wilson's:
Ferland - 281 GP / 57G / 62A / 119 Pts
Wilson - 289 GP / 46G / 64A / 110 Pts
^So IDK is a crazy to think that the market value for someone like him isn't $5 million a year?

If you can get Ferland in and ship out Backes that 3rd line is going to be good.
I think we might have some serious locker room issues down the road if we bring in a newcomer that makes more than Bergeron and Marchand.

Marchand-Bergeron-Pasternak
JDB-DK-Mojo
Bjork-Coyle-Ferland
Heinen-Kuraly-Wagner
That would be a damn good lineup IMO and as good a forward group as what Tampa has.

Marc Savard on Hockey Central alluding to Ferland busted hand..He broke his hand with Calgary fighting so could be true.
Karmas a b*tch for running at one of our most important players for our Cup run by a team with no Cup equity. Canes stay the Canes.

So true. Those billboards on the highway that state 3 minute ER wait time. Thats just the time the receptionist takes to give you a nod recognizing your at the back of the line.you been to a hospital lately? He`d be fortunate if they have even processed his paperwork let alone taken him in to see the Dr

So true. I must say, though, when you tell them that you fell off the ladder 14 feet up or come in green from pain from kidney stone they do tend to process you faster that the ones with sniffles. Arterial bleeding also helps.

I felt the passion in the stands. We all did! It really sent chills. It was a moment that if it didnt come across on tv, you had to be in the Garden. She was incredible.
