    Buffalo Sabres Daily Press Clips February 26, 2015 NHL fines Sabres goalie Neuvirth for diving vs. Predators Associated Press February 25, 2015 BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) — The NHL has fined Buffalo Sabres goalie Michal Neuvirth $2,000 for diving and embellishment after drawing a penalty in a game against the Nashville Predators last weekend. The disciplinary action announced on Wednesday was a second offense for Neuvirth. The first offense merited a warning, and occurred during a game against the Toronto Maple Leafs on Nov. 15. Fines increase with each instance up to $5,000 following a fifth offense. The punishment came after the league's Hockey Operations Department reviewed an interference penalty called against Nashville's Mike Santorelli early in the second period of the Predators' 2-1 shootout win. In a separate move, Buffalo returned rookie defenseman Jake McCabe to AHL Rochester. The Sabres had the day off, and host Vancouver on Thursday. Canucks-Sabres preview Associated Press February 25, 2015 Buffalo will have to wait until next season to welcome Ryan Miller back to town. It might also be that long before Sabres All-Star Zemgus Girgensons sees the ice again. With both injured, Miller's surging Vancouver Canucks look to conclude an already successful five-game trip with a third straight victory Thursday night against Buffalo. Miller made 20 saves in a 5-2 win over the Sabres (18-38-5) on Jan. 30, but won't be available in his first trip to Buffalo since the club traded him to St. Louis one year ago Sunday.

  • Buffalo Sabres Digital Press
    Buffalo Sabres Daily Press Clips Tuesday, February 5, 2013 Sabres lack balance in scoring By John Vogl Buffalo News February 4, 2013 OTTAWA – Lindy Ruff and assistant coaches James Patrick and Kevyn Adams had solid, lengthy NHL careers. They were not snipers, however. They combined for 313 goals in 2,511 games, which works out to a goal every eight outings or so. That didn’t stop Ruff from joking the trio might provide scoring punch to the struggling Buffalo Sabres. Ruff, Patrick and Adams spent much of Monday’s practice in First Niagara Center anchoring a power play. So after the extended workout, is the trio ready to play on the road against the Ottawa Senators tonight? “We might have to,” Ruff said. There are plenty of “secondary scorers” who would be candidates to come out. Drew Stafford, Jochen Hecht and Nathan Gerbe are among the Sabres still looking for their first goal. Marcus Foligno, Steve Ott and Mihkail Grigorenko head another lengthy list of players who have only one. “That’s our biggest issue right now,” Ott said. “Our second, third and fourth line have not produced at all.” The Sabres will enter Scotiabank Place having won just one of their last seven games. Though they’ve also been a mess defensively, the inability to complement the torrid scoring pace set by Thomas Vanek, Jason Pominville and Cody Hodgson is the main reason for their losing skid. Buffalo needs more scorers, plain and simple. “It needs to happen, and it needs to happen right now,” Stafford said before flying to Canada’s capital.
