Understanding Canucks’ winger Micheal Ferland’s latest concussion
The Vancouver Canucks announced Friday morning that winger Micheal Ferland has been placed in concussion protocol. Here’s why the injury is more concerning than you may think.
Micheal Ferland is a name that Vancouver Canucks fans will never forget. During the 2015 playoffs, the lone year that a team under current general manager Jim Benning managed to make the playoffs, Ferland terrorized the Canucks as a rookie.
He was trying to quickly make a name for himself by finishing every check possible, and he managed to do just that. Ferland forged himself a spot in the NHL and has stayed in the league ever since. In that 2014-15 season however, Ferland suffered his first concussion.
