I did not actually finish the puzzle, but it looked like there was a choice of at least three one-steppers. BUG+1, XY-Wing and W-Wing.

So, I went hunting. After basics:

Code:
+-------------+-------------+-------------+
| 9   7   6   | 8   3   1   | 2   4   5   |
| 3   2   8   | 5   6   4   | 7   1   9   |
| 5   1   4   | 2   7   9   | 3   6   8   |
+-------------+-------------+-------------+
| 4   69  19  | 3   2   7   | 5   8   16  |
| 67  5   2   | 14  14  8   | 9   3   67  |
| 17  8   3   | 9   5   6   | 4   2   17  |
+-------------+-------------+-------------+
| 2   3   19  | 16  189 5   | 68  7   4   |
| 8   69  7   | 46  49  2   | 1   5   3   |
| 16  4   5   | 7   18  3   | 68  9   2   |
+-------------+-------------+-------------+


Bug +1
XY 1-69
XY 16-8
XY 1-68
XYZ -189
W -16

You can find an XY chain to make an elimination in every cell!
