aGENT Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 So Weber's 11 goals and 21 points doesn't qualify him to be an actual NHLer compared to Ehrhoff who had 3 goals and 14 points. Granted he was injured but pro-rated to 82 games and Weber would still have produced more than Ehrhoff For the record, far different situational use/opportunity. Ehrhoff's not what he was but he's still (marginally) better than Weber. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maginator Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 I really hope we can sign Ehrhoff. He was a huge component on the Sedins scoring success. He was almost a 3rd Sedin. Such great chemistry. If we could snag him on a 1 year deal I would be thrilled. Our top line would be buzzing to go along with our new found toughness, all of a sudden were a contender. Seriously JB get'r done.

Nave Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 After trading Clendening I hope we get Ehrhoff. I think our other defensive prospects could benefit - since we got Bartkowski we could stand to keep them in the minors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nucks-4-Life Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 What's the point of signing Erhoff to a 1 year deal? He'd be wanting atleast 4 million. We are 3+ years away from contending for a cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nave Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 He won't get 4 mil and he has a better chance of upping his stock with us than anyone else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aliboy Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 I'd sign him for 2-3 years at $2-3M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldnews Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 I'm getting a kick out of the Ehrhoff situation. He badly wanted out of his Buffalo contract so he could play for a contender. Now that the Sabres traded away Zadorov, they are looking for a left handed defenceman. He's now a semi-unwanted player in the league that is looking for a contract at a fraction of what he would have been making had he stayed with the Sabres. He had it made in the shade with both the Canucks and the Sabres. He's learning the hard way that the grass isn't always greener on the other side. The Sabres sucked with and without him, but he sure could have made a difference in Vancouver. But hey, he still wants his immediate chance at the Stanley Cup. *snicker* He went to Buffalo to 'win a Cup' in the first place, lulzzzzz. The guy couldn't produce with the free range Penguins. What next? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SabreFan1 Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 He went to Buffalo to 'win a Cup' in the first place, lulzzzzz. The guy couldn't produce with the free range Penguins. What next? He's just looking for a steady 2015-16 paycheque at this point. He can't be too choosy about teams, because he's not in high demand. Maybe he'll get signed by the Maple Laffs and then announce he's there to get his name engraved on the Stanley Cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerbera Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 He went to Buffalo to 'win a Cup' in the first place, lulzzzzz. The guy couldn't produce with the free range Penguins. What next? I am surprised Oilers didn't take a 1 year 4 mil chance on him honestly. They desperately needed D and he can at least be a decent stop gap for them.

saucypass Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 We should puncture those CBJ tires and try to get him here so we can swap him for a pick at the TDL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aGENT Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 We should puncture those CBJ tires and try to get him here so we can swap him for a pick at the TDL. We'd likely have to move another one of our D men out and definitely whatever salary we would be signing him to. Who do you propose? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdgarM Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 I really wished we had not signed Weber and payed a little extra for Ehrhoff for at least a year or two. That would have given us a good top 4 D-men core and we may have traded him at the trade deadline for picks to a contender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it were up to me, it'd be one of Sbisa or Weber. Salary wise, it just makes sense to get rid of Sbisa. He really doesn't produce a lot of offense for a tough dude that makes as many mistakes as he has. Weber on the other hand is small and is only useful on the powerplay, which is easily replaceable if we're talking about Ehrhoff coming in. I would say Sbisa is my first choice followed by Weber, that guy is really dragging Hamhuis down. This a good idea because if we can reunite Edler and Ehrhoff and they even replicate half of the success they've had with each other, that allows Tanev to be paired up with Hamhuis. We will then automatically have a MUCH more solid top 4. If I could pick what the last pairing would be, it would be Bartkowski and Corrado, leaving Weber as the extra man. If Ehrhoff finds chemistry with the Sedins, then that would be even better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aliboy Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Weber could be the odd man out, but I have little hope we'll see Hoff here. Blue Jackets have made him an offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ilya Mikheyev Posted August 5, 2015 Author Share Posted August 5, 2015 Update: Christian Ehrhoff: Last month, Ehrhoff’s agent claimed his client would accept a one-year deal. The German magazine Eishockey News reports Ehrhoff confirms receiving an offer from the Columbus Blue Jackets, but he’s also speaking with other clubs. The Carolina Hurricanes and Boston Bruins could be among the suitors. The Hockey News Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RWMc1 Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 While we're at it, we should try to bring back Lumme. Or we could look to the future. As far as I'm concerned, Errorhoff can play anywhere but here. We're moving forwards not backwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
