Confirmed with Link: Lindy Ruff named Head Coach, Press Conference at 1:00 PM EDT

[Chainshot]

imagine the audience in there underwear

Reacting to Mike Harrington commando is likely a bit strong, don't you think?

 

[Zman5778]

Lindy saying all the right things.

 

[Chainshot]

Talking about earning it from the fans? Yes f***ing please.

 

[1point21Gigawatts]

No ROR's allowed in Lindy's lockerroom. Gotta love the game.

 

[Ace]

Lindy basically just said he didn’t say yes right away because he had to make sure he could choke a bitch if he wanted to lol

 

[Jim Bob]

He missed Paul Hamilton and Mike Harrington.

 

[Chainshot]

No ROR's allowed in Lindy's lockerroom. Gotta love the game.

I wonder if he was handling that situation if it was smoother - O'Reilly got buried in d-zone and matchup hell. There was no help and Housley wore him out.

Lindy getting in a joke at PHam and Harrington... okay, three years of Granato rebuilding those relationships is going to burn quick.

 

[ValJamesDuex]

Lindy humor, lol

 

[1point21Gigawatts]

At least someone misses Harrington. Must warm his ice cold heart to know lindy missed him.

 

[CaliSabresfan24]

Lindy with the jokes

 

[Gabrielor]

He missed Paul Hamilton and Mike Harrington.

Yea, and I missed having chicken pox when I was 5.

 

[kirby11]

Discipline for the players as part of achieving a higher goal...yes

Lol the P.Ham and Harrington callouts

 

[Doug Prishpreed]

First time Harington has asked a not-awful question in decades

 

[CaliSabresfan24]

LOVE that you can hear the reporters questions

 

[Ace]

LOVE that you can hear the reporters questions

It’s truly a new era

 

[Chainshot]

Pushing teammates to a higher level? Yes please.

 

[Chainshot]

LOVE that you can hear the reporters questions

Glad they have joined us in the 2020's with technology.

 

[CaliSabresfan24]

Liked how Lindy made a point to look at the players when answering that question

 

[Zman5778]

OK Paul. I laughed at the goalie question.

 

[Jim Bob]

The Sabres groupchat right now:

 

[ValJamesDuex]

UPL shout from Lindy

 

[Chainshot]

Ruff giving Luukkonen the endorsement.

 

[Chainshot]

"Understanding your role and executing your role".... more.... more please.

 

[Ace]

Ruff giving Luukkonen the endorsement.

With how the last few seasons have ended with UPL sitting in a weird limbo…it has to feel incredible that the first player the new coach shouts out is you

 

[enthusiast]

Doesn’t surprise me that Vanek thinks highly of Ruff. For his limitations on ice he always seemed to Get It
