In honor of the Sharks' first playoff game this year, the Unsung Hero of the Day is a Shark.
Christian Ehrhoff, the always intense-looking German, loves sitting at the point and slapping the puck at the net. The NHL equivalent of jacking it up, Ehrhoff runs the power play beautifully while using his sharp looks to seduce any big-boned woman in the stands (sorry ladies, he's actually married). He and Sharkie also have a special bond, as you can see the two sharing needles in the attached photo.
Ehrhoff is so cool, he even has his own website. For a German, his English is great; on his website, responding to the question, "What languages do you speak," he writes: "Despite German and English I also speak French." Solid. His website is poppin'... the guestbook has 4 comments in the last year and a half. If only he had a blog, we would get to read more of his great English.
At this point in the game, he's leading the Sharks in ice time with 16:31, and he's got two shots on goal. Look for #10 to play big in the 3rd.
How about a highlight?
Watch him jack up the Blue Jackets.
Possibly the best thing about Ehrhoff is that he and his roommate, Marcel Goc, have a documentary... and it's got cheery music in the background! Part two. Part three.
And, just for some good luck tonight, Ehrhoff scoring a game winner.
