Would be a great add, but we gotta shed some cap first probably.
Ehh.. I dunno. If it’s anything close to the 7 years for $8.88 million that would give me pause. Getting a little up there in age and has had injury issues. I guess it might solve some immediate needs, but I don’t think that contract would age very well.
As much as I would love to have another Halifax moosehead on the team I don’t think ehlers with a shiny new UFA price tag on him is what the devils should be after. Has some injury issues and is under .5 ppg in the playoffs for his career. I would rather devils grab a third liner and a middle 6 centre for the cost that ehlers would have attached.
They don’t have the cap space. Luke Hughes is going to be expensive. Nemec is a breakout season (which is looking more realistic than it did earlier this past season) away from being expensive too.
I would love to live in a world where we get Ehlers but the reality is that we need to clear a massive amount of cap (Dougie at a minimum) to get him.
I would do some absolutely heinous things to get Ehlers on the Devils
Ehlers is a beast but idk how we afford it. My dream winger for jack is Kyle Connor but that’s a total pipe dream
