Confirmed with Link: Buffalo Sabres Buy Out Christian Ehrhoff (Signs with PIT 1 yr $4 million)

[silkyjohnson50]

Well I guess there goes the lowball arguments out the window.

 

[Heaton]

Yeah, Ehrhoff didn't want to come to Detroit. Signs a 1 year deal with Pittsburgh while asking for 5 from Detroit?

I'm glad we didn't get him now.

Also could be the case that he thinks he can put up huge numbers then get a huge deal next year.

 

[BStinson]

Wonderful...

I honestly would like to see one of the kids come up now and get some experience or sign Boyle to a scab contract.

He's going to put up monster offensive stats next year, Pittsburgh improved their team big-time.

Rough start to FA Frenzy.

Also could be the case that he thinks he can put up huge numbers then get a huge deal next year.

Then get overpaid, just like we might do with Niskanen.

I'm worried about that, I don't think Niskanen is worth half of what he's likely asking for.

 

[DeYarmond Edison]

Well I was very wrong

 

[evolutionbaby]

It sounds like the Pens were his number 1 choice by quite a bit. He said he wasnt really looking for a big money long term deal. Im sure he will get quite a nice contract after this one.

87 and 71.

 

[Bench]

1 year deal? Ha.

Oh boy, he only wanted to be in Pittsburgh. And he gave them a sweetheart deal.

Pretty much he was never coming to Detroit.

Players will decide themselves, where they will go.

 

[RedHawkDown]

Pretty hilarious. Oh Kenny

Let's move discussion into the Free Agent Frenzy thread. This one can be put to rest.
