Ehlers is set to be making $6 million this season, although it may seem like a hefty price for Cheveldayoff to pay right now, he has made it known that Ehlers is an integral part of the organization.
Many sources have speculated that Nikolaj Ehlers could be much happier in another market, but the Jets is the only team has ever known. It's no secret that many hockey clubs are highly interested in hunting down the veteran forward who would be willing to pay big time money. If thats the case, there's nothing Kevin Cheveldayoff can do to stop this from happening.
