Micheal Ferland News

Ferland was making his return from a concussion but the Hurricanes removed him from the game because he didn’t feel right. This likely means that Ferland will miss the Hurricanes’ back-to-back on Thursday/Friday.

Ferland missed the last four games with a concussion will be back against the Maple Leafs on Tuesday. Ferland is expected to skate in the bottom-6 to start the game, so he doesn’t have as much fantasy value as he did earlier in the year.

Ferland has missed the last four games with a concussion but is set to return to the Hurricanes lineup on Tuesday. After getting off to a hot-start, Ferland was held pointless in his previous three games and is expected to return on the fourth line.

Ferland will miss Friday’s games with a concussion that he likely suffered in Montreal on Tuesday. With Ferland out, the Hurricanes are forced to shuffle their lines and Clark Bishop is up from Charlotte (AHL) to centre the fourth line. It is difficult to pinpoint how long a player will be sidelined with a concussion so consider Ferland day-to-day.

Ferland missed Thursday’s practice and is questionable for Friday’s game vs. the Ducks. Clark Bishop was recalled from Charlotte (AHL) and would take Ferland’s spot in the lineup if he can’t play. Monitor his status during the Hurricanes’ morning skate on Friday morning.

Ferland was acquired along with Dougie Hamilton from the Flames this offseason and will look to build off of a career-best 41 points (21G / 20A) in 2018. Ferland will be held off of the ice for “a few days” according to Hurricanes head coach Rod Brind’Amour, so it doesn’t sound like he’s in any danger of missing the start of the season.

Ferland had the best season of his career in 2018, scoring 21 goals with 20 assists (41 points) in 77 games. He spent the majority of his time on a line with Johnny Gaudreau and Sean Monahan, but struggled away from them. That trio had a 53.77 CF% and 61.9 GF% in 704:39 together at 5v5, but Ferland saw those rates drop to a 48.76 CF% and 31.25 GF% without Gaudreau and Monahan.

Ferland has missed the last four games with an undisclosed injury but will be back in the lineup tonight in Pittsburgh. Ferland, who will be back on the top line with Sean Monahan and Johnny Gaudreau, has 20 goals and 14 assists (34 points) in 61 games this season.

Ferland left last Thursday’s game in Arizona before missing Saturday’s contest vs. the Avalanche. The Flames said that Ferland “probably” won’t play in Tuesday’s game in Dallas. The Flames claimed Chris Stewart off of waivers on Monday to help fill-in for Ferland.

Ferland missed last Saturday’s game in Vancouver but will be back in the lineup tonight vs. Carolina. Ferland has already lost his top-line spot next two Sean Monahan and Johnny Gaudreau and with that he lost most of his fantasy value. He has just one goal on 12 shots in five games this season.

Ferland, who missed Saturday’s game in Vancouver, also missed today’s practice. Glen Gulutzan said that he hopes Ferland can be back on the ice tomorrow, but his status for Thursday’s game vs. the Hurricanes is in question.

Ferland missed the last three games with a lower-body injury, but will be back in the lineup tonight vs. the Predators. Ferland will replace Sam Bennett, who will be a healthy scratch. Ferland has five goals and six assists (11 points) in 44 games this season.

Ferland has missed the last two games with a lower-body injury, but skated on the fourth line in the morning skate and called himself a game-time decision for tonight’s game. All signs are pointing towards him returning, so expect the rugged winger to play. He has 11 points (5G / 6A) in 44 games this season.

Ferland left Wednesday’s game vs. the Sharks and did not return. The injury will keep him out of the lineup tonight, but luckily for the Flames, Troy Brouwer (finger) will get back into the lineup tonight.
