Update: @KatieStrangNYI Katie Strang - Talks broke down between #Isles and Christian Ehrhoff; email sent out from #Isles end to other teams.
The New York Islanders acquired the rights to defenseman Christian Ehrhoff for a 2012 4th round pick.
The Vancouver Canucks defensemen had 14 and 36 for 50 points with a +14 rating last season. In 23 playoff games, Ehrhoff was 2 and 10 for 12 points. Ehrhoff totaled 28 and 66 for 94 points in 159 games with Vancouver. The 6’2, 203 pound defenseman was a San Jose Shark’s fourth round draft pick and was chosen 106th overall and scored 132 points. Erhoff has represented his native Germany in the past two winter Olympic contests. Garth Snow is optimistic that he could hear from Ehrhoff's camp as early as today on his decision to play for Long Island. Michael Grabner has tweeted the following, @grabs40 Michael Grabner - "For all the people asking- I already talked to Ehrhoff. told him its great on long island,tried my best...rest is up to him people." Give Garth Snow credit for a great effort here, regardless of the outcome.
