Hugor Hill Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 The new CBA f&%ked them, or else the Hoff is still worth this contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gustavo Fring Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Wow. A lot of teams would love to have Ehrhoff. Too bad were a lil crowded. His best years were with Edler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aliboy Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Sign him!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is one of the most significant moves we could make!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilbur Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Now there is a team that's tanking. How will they get to the salary floor? They'd be about 20 million away from it if they buy out Ehrhoff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drouin Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Please sign him GMJB! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gustavo Fring Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 I don't think we should sign him. I'd rather use up a roster spot on stanton or give top 4 duty to Tanev.. We gotta quit trying to relive 2011. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holy smokes they have over 38 mil of cap space after the buyout. Going for Orpiks and Mezsaros? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UFCanuck Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Ehrhoff's time has passed. He chose money over a chance to win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primal Optimist Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Wow, he is dirt cheap by todays and tomorrows standards for a Dman..they must simply not like him in the room. 4m a year till 2021...keeping in mind the cap will go up by that every year he is a steal, literally dirt cheap from about 2016 to 2021, and he is moderately priced until then....weird. My guess is they just don't like him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathew Barzal Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Ehrhoff's time has passed. He chose money over a chance to win. And he'll do it again, people asking for him here have no idea how paid he's about to get. Easily the most sought after UFA defenseman as of today.

BabychStache Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 This is simply because of the "Luongo rule." If they don't do it now, then they will be screwed later. That said, great guy to sign. Has nothing to do with recapturing 2011 and everything to do with having a decent PP again. He's the PMD the Canucks need. Sign him and trade Tanev.
