He has a canon of a shot, he can skate well, i never followed him much before. If I had my choice Ehroff>Martin.

If they cost the same, I'd stick with Martin. But, we know Martin is going to get around 7 mil after this season, and Ehrhoff should vary between his 4 mil (beyond wishful thinking) and 5.75 mil.

Also younger and likely cheaper.

Martins selfie last night though earns him some points.

I actually don't know why Martin has been valued as higher than Ehrhoff all this time... only thing thats really hard to factor is Ehrhoff's buyout situation, and if every team is going to want to knock part of that off his value.

Side by side, Ehrhoff has him beat in stats, the only exception being a season where Martin was on pace for over 50 but only played 30some.

Ehrhoff is a year younger as well.

Yep, I'm confused.

Also, BB's game is way too soft to be a playoff performer. That was proven last year. He has a good shot, some hands, but not a grinder, can't battle, thats where fancy stats lose their merit.

You're right, let's trade him now for nothing, or for a UFA. Then we can female dog about us not developing our own talent.

that's true. Even when its with our own players.

Missed the game, just watched the highlights but its amazing how much more time and space 87 gets when there are more than 1 capable lines to roll out.

Congrats to MAF!

That & the Flames weren't too good yesterday. They gave the Pens time & space & got burnt. Different story of they played an in your face physical style.
