hf101 Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 The 31 yr old Ehrhoff had 7 years and $28M left on his contract. The Sabres will be paying him $18.667 million until 2027-28. While his cap hit wasn't horrible the length of time on the books was probably the driving reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanflyer Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Too bad we don't have cap room. I would love to pick him up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hf101 Posted June 29, 2014 Author Share Posted June 29, 2014 Too bad we don't have cap room. I would love to pick him up. Agree, but then maybe we do if we turn around and make a trade. Eklund has Philly, Isles, Pens and the Sharks with interest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jmdodgesrt4 Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 I believe they have a trade partner for vinny. Just not till after the signing bonus. Moving out another dman would be also needed I believe. Prefer grossman to be moved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyercanuck Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 The funny thing is because he's a defenceman and they are highly coveted, he'll likely get somewhere in the range of 5 years at $5 or $6 million again. Nice way to make a living. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jammer2 Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 @hf101 ha ha....I don't know how many times I was telling the junkie that Erhoff would get bought out. At least 10 different threads over the past couple years..he always called me crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yave1964 Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 The Wings would be a perfect fit, though from what I have read the Sharks, his former club seem to be the favorite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polaris922 Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Have fun kissing Crosby's behind there in the Steel city Christian. You will miss Buffalo very fastAre you drunk? He'll miss losing? He'll miss not making the playoffs? By the time Buffalo has a shot again he'll be retired. He took a $4 million contract to win and try for it all. I don't think he'll be missing Buffalo one bit.
