Buffalo Sabres expected to hire Lindy Ruff as new coach
The Buffalo Sabres have missed out on the playoffs once again, and with their standards given to them at the start of the year, a result like so is unacceptable. Therefore, they fired head coach Don Grenato and according to Elliotte Friedman the Sabres are expected to hire former Devils coach Lindy Ruff.
On Monday afternoon NHL insider Elliotte Friedman has speculated that the Buffalo Sabres will be hiring veteran coach Lindy Ruff.
