Lindy Ruff will re-emerge just like Carlyle and a year from now we'll be writing stories on what a great hire Ruff was

You're probably right. But you can't change an entire roster to keep the coach. It's usually easier to work things the other way around.

Lindy's not a terrible coach, he just lost the room here.

Dear lord, we canned the rest of the coaching staff too, right? Or are we just going to let the new coach do that?

be classy Sabre fans... While i agree it is time for a change but Ruff gave this organization many good years.
- JoeSabre

I can say 1 thing, if we ever do win a cup it will be strange not seeing Lindy raise it but changes are needed.

Don't mean this to sound like a troll but I would say it is the lineup that is to blame.... the centers are almost laughable? The team also has no toughness.

Lindy has made it a career of getting more than he should out of teams that didn't boast the most high priced talent. I think the fans in Buffalo are just so used to that, that they expect it every year.

I am going to be pissed when he leads a team of real hockey players to a cup in the next 3 years.

And....what does this gain Sabres fans?? I've been wanting him fired for years now, and hate the argument that he's going to win elsewhere. I give zero poops what he does now, he's had the helm for 15 years and got us nothing.

Crazy.... Its weird how they said "relieved of duty" though.... I wonder if that means he's still gonna be w the Sabres, just not as coach?
- jdfitz77


No I think "relieved of duty" is just a nicer way of saying fired. It's like saying someone was "let go" instead of saying they were fired.

I think it was time for Ruff to go and I wish he would of won the cup here. And the lazy good for nothing millionaire loafers should be embarrassed.

Eastern team about to have GM vacancy, and an owner who wants to make a splash? Sabre fans, are you already excited for the Brian Burke era?
