Ehrhoff's rights traded to Buffalo

Staff Reports Niagara Gazette The Niagara Gazette Wed Jun 29, 2011, 10:29 PM EDT

BUFFALO — The Buffalo Sabres acquired the negotiating rights to former Vancouver defenseman Christian Ehrhoff from the New York Islanders on Wednesday.

The 28-year-old defenseman scored 14 goals and 50 points for the Canucks this season and cost Buffalo a 2012 fourth-round pick for the right to ink a contract.

Islanders general manager Garth Snow acquired the rights to Ehrhoff from Vancouver on Tuesday in exchange for a 2012 fourth-round pick. Snow failed to sign the defenseman before a self-imposed 5 p.m. deadline on Wednesday before shipping his rights to the Sabres.

Buffalo will have exclusive negotiating rights with Ehrhoff until noon on Friday, when free agency opens in the National Hockey League.

CONFER: When will the college bubble burst? The bursting of the housing bubble was the unquestioned cause of the Great Recession. After years of unprecedented growth in the housing market that saw home ownership and home values rise dramatically, the collective bad decisions of homebuyers, banks, and government finally caught up to the economy at large.
