Christian Ehrhoff: Retiring from professional hockey
Ehrhoff will hang up his skates and call it a career, John Vogl of The Buffalo News reports.
Ehrhoff logged 52 games for DEL Cologne this season, in which he tallied eight goals and 23 helpers. The highlight of the veteran's season came when he helped Germany win a silver medal at the 2018 Winter Olympics. In the NHL, the blueliner appeared in 789 games spread out across six organizations. The 35-year-old's contract buyout with the Sabres -- a $40 million, 10-year contract signed in 2011 -- will see him continue to get paid by the club through the 2027-28 season.

Christian Ehrhoff: Signs with German club
Ehrhoff signed with Kolner Haie of the Deutsche Eishockey Liga on Monday.
Ehrhoff was in camp on a professional tryout agreement with the Bruins, but after failing to secure a commitment for consistent play time, opted to walk away from the tryout. Instead the 34-year-old returns to the DHL where he began his career and last played during the lockout-shortened 2012-13 season. After bouncing around the NHL the last few years, it seems unlikely the veteran will be returning to North America to play hockey in the near future.

Christian Ehrhoff: Not planning to sign with Boston
Ehrhoff -- who was with the Bruins on a professional tryout agreement -- has reportedly elected not to sign with the team, CSN New England reports.
Per the report, Ehrhoff preferred to move on after learning that he wasn't in line to be one of the Bruins' top six blueliners. Ehrhoff -- who showed well during the World Cup of Hockey -- could catch on elsewhere, however, after playing capably during his brief stint with Boston.

Bruins' Christian Ehrhoff: Inks PTO with Boston
Ehrhoff inked a professional tryout agreement (PTO) with Boston on Friday, Bob McKenzie of TSN reports.
Ehrhoff had been an unrestricted free agent throughout the offseason but after a WCOH appearance for Team Europe, the Bruins decided to give the 34-year-old a shot to make their roster. It seems likely that the defenseman's best years are behind him as he hasn't contributed more than 14 points since the 2013-14 campaign, but with 789 games of NHL experience under his belt, his hockey acumen alone could land him on a third or fourth pair on Boston's defense.
