Playing career

Ferlin started to play hockey in Jacksonville, Florida at the age of five. After moving to Indianapolis for his last two years of high school, [1] he played collegiate hockey in the NCAA Men's Division I college hockey for the Cornell Big Red men's ice hockey team in the ECAC Hockey conference. In 2012, he was awarded Cornell's Greg Ratushny Award, presented to the most promising freshman. [2]

Before attending Cornell University, Ferlin played junior hockey with the Indiana Ice in the United States Hockey League. Ferlin's outstanding play during the 2010–11 season was rewarded with his being selected to play in the 2011 USHL All-Star Game.

On April 11, 2014, after his collegiate career, Ferlin signed a two-year entry-level contract with the Boston Bruins. [3]

In the 2014–15 season, Ferlin made his professional debut with the Bruins' AHL affiliate in Providence. On February 20, 2015, Ferlin made his NHL debut in a game against the St. Louis Blues. He scored his first NHL point, an assist, during the following game against the Chicago Blackhawks on February 22, 2015.

On July 1, 2017, Ferlin signed a one-year, two-way deal as a free agent with the Edmonton Oilers. [4] After he was cleared to return, he played in just 7 games with AHL affiliate, the Bakersfield Condors, before he was removed from the roster, citing retirement.
