Scouting Report

Strengths: Is a physical presence and isn’t
afraid to fight it out along the boards. Possesses a good shot and is strong
on the puck.
Weaknesses: Must work on his skating in order
to make it to the next level. Has to work hard for any points he gets.
Projected Role: Jonathan Ferland could become a 4th line agitator, but is in danger of
quickly dropping on the depth chart because of the surplus of quality
prospect forwards in the Habs’ organization.
