The Minnesota Wild should claim Christian Ehrhoff

The LA Kings waived the left-shot defenseman earlier today. Could he help the struggling Wild?

After signing Christian Ehrhoff to a low-risk, 1 year, $1.5M deal this offseason, the Kings have officially decided to part ways with the 33-year-old defenseman, putting him on waivers today. Ehrhoff wasn't very productive at even strength with the low-scoring Kings, but he wasn't a possession boat anchor, and he was productive for LA's power play. Ehrhoff isn't what he once was, but it's possible that he could step in and be a nice depth signing for a playoff bubble team.
