GARTH: What About Ruff?
When the music finally stops, will Lindy Ruff have a seat to sit down on?
Two days ago, the Sabres granted the Rangers permission to interview Ruff. Still, no interview. Will Ruff get his opportunity to pitch the job, or will the Rangers opt to hire another coach?
The NY Rangers brass have been holed up on La Quinta, California all week. The team is conducting job interviews to repla...
Sabres Looking At All Options For Trading Up
The NHL is a league about results, and there is no one that can honestly say that they would rather lose more games than they win. If they do, well, then they shouldn’t be in the business.
Teams in a rebuild will always look for a way to improve their on-ice product as fast as they can in order to get better production sooner. And if a team had, say, two first round picks in the...
Drafting the Sabres: All-Time first round selections
For the second-straight year, the Sabres enter the NHL Entry Draft with a pair of first round selections. Slotted in at eight and 16, the Sabres will have the opportunity to round out their portfolio of first round picks at an even 50 after 43 years of drafting.
In honor of picks 49 and 50 being made at the end of this month, I went through each of the first round picks the Sabres...

GARTH: Ruff Streets Of NYC
The worm has turned. The weeks of speculation will finally materialize in a job interview for Lindy Ruff with the NY Rangers.
As ESPN NYs Katie Strang tweeted earlier today, the Buffalo Sabres have indeed granted their permission to their former head coach, Lindy ruff, to interview for the Rangers' head coaching job.

Vigneault on His Way to be Interviewed By Rangers; Permission Granted for Ruff
John Shannon at Sportsnet reports that word is that Alaine Vigneault is on his way to the Rangers organizational meetings in California to be interviewed.
...nice to see the Rangers finally dip their toe in the water.
In other head coach vacancy news, Katie Strang at ESPN says that the Rangers sought and have received permission from the Sabres to speak with Lindy Ruff.

Kevin Freiheit: Looking ahead
The biggest restricted free agent the Sabres have is Cody Hodgson, who had a cap hit of $1.66M this past season. Hodgson had 15 goals and 19 assists in 48 games, which was his highest point total of his career, despite the shortened season. Hodgson is a player I believe could benefit the Sabres for a long time. The former 1st round pick (10th overall by Vancouver) could easily be...
30 Teams in 30 Days–Buffalo Sabres
The Buffalo Sabres shuffled their way to the cellar of the Northeast Division in 2013. It’s not that bad of a place to be given that the other four teams in their division all made the playoffs. The downside is that the Sabres have some serious question marks going into the 2013-2014 season and it might be a rebuilding season.
Team Name: Buffalo Sabres
Record: 21-21-6, Fifth in...
The Buffalo Recruiting Problem?
I am not from Buffalo. I grew up in downtown Chicago, followed by college in New York City, a year in Connecticut, and then back to Chicago for a few months. Then I married a girl I met in college, and we decided to move to Western New York.
I was hesitant to move from big-city living to what I believed to be a winter wilderness beside Lake Erie, but I was wrong about this city...
While not the popular choice, fans should embrace Rolston
Ron Rolston’s return was somewhat expected. He wasn’t a total catastrophe during his stint as Buffalo’s interm bench boss and he was rewarded with the removal of the interim tag at a vote of confidence as Buffalo’s head coach moving forward.
While not too many people were happy about it, I’ve been left wondering one thing: Isn’t this exactly what everyone wanted...
Buffalo Sabres sign rookie F Colin Jacobs

Jacobs, 6-foot-1 and 202 pounds, was selected by Buffalo in the fourth round of the 2011 draft. From Coppell, Texas, he finished last season playing for Buffalo's American Hockey League affiliate in Rochester on a tryout basis, and had a goal and two assists in 11 games.
He joined...

HI!
Sabres' John Scott videobombs interview
via NHL.com video Whatever I say here won’t do justice the little stunt that Buffalo Sabres’ tough guy John Scott pulled during teammate Chad Ruhwedel’s post game interview Sunday. While MSG-Buffalo’s Brian Duff asked Duhwedel about getting a high-stick to the face while not wearing a full shield, Scott grabbed his faux fur coat and got his groove on. Duhwedel had no clue...
