Flames' Ferland's mother told him not to hit the Sedins
Candice Ward-USA TODAY Sports
Michael Ferland was all over the ice Sunday night in the Calgary Flames' 4-2 Game 3 win over the Vancouver Canucks.
The 22-year-old played 12:10 and threw a whopping nine hits, and picked up five minutes for fighting after dropping the gloves with Kevin Bieksa late in the third period of what's been a very chippy series.
After the game, Ferland revealed he had specific instructions from his mother about what he could and couldn't do on the ice:
#Flames Michael Ferland’s mom told him not to hit the Sedins.
“She told me, 'Leave the Sedins alone.' She loves them,” he said.

We're going to assume that if Ferland did hit one of the twins, he's going to tell his mother he didn't. Hey, we've all been there.
