  • Press Clips December 5, 2013 Rangers-Sabres Preview Associated Press December 4, 2013
    Buffalo Sabres Daily Press Clips December 5, 2013 Rangers-Sabres Preview Associated Press December 4, 2013 If there was the slightest bit of doubt that Henrik Lundqvist was the clear-cut No. 1 goaltender for the New York Rangers, it has been eliminated this week. A day after agreeing to a seven-year contract extension, Lundqvist is likely to return to the ice after a rare two-game stretch on the bench as New York desperately tries to get some momentum going Thursday night against the Buffalo Sabres. "It was never an option for me to leave this club," Lundqvist said after the new deal was announced. "I really want to win the Cup here in New York." This trip to Buffalo precedes a nine-game homestand which will take the Rangers (14-14-0) through Christmas, a stretch Lundqvist would surely welcome. He has a 1.69 goals-against average at Madison Square Garden compared to 3.28 on the road. He hasn't been in net at MSG since Nov. 19 because New York's only two home games since then - also its two most recent games - were started by Cam Talbot even though Lundqvist was healthy. Talbot had been outplaying Lundqvist, going 6-1-0 with a 1.49 GAA through November while the five-time Vezina Trophy finalist was 8-11-0 with a career-worst 2.51 GAA. However, Talbot came back down to Earth on Monday, giving up four goals on 29 shots in a 5-2 loss to Winnipeg. Two days later, the team announced it had agreed to terms on the new deal with Lundqvist worth a reported $59.5 million.

  • Press Clips September 25, 2013 Sabres Stay Patient While Rebuilding Through Youth by John Wawrow Associated Press September 24, 2013
    Buffalo Sabres Daily Press Clips September 25, 2013 Sabres stay patient while rebuilding through youth By John Wawrow Associated Press September 24, 2013 BUFFALO, N.Y. — Sabres coach Ron Rolston is reminded of the changes taking place in downtown Buffalo every day he heads into work. There's a construction site across the street from the team's arena, where Sabres owner Terry Pegula's HarborCenter hotel and entertainment complex is being erected. Then there's the major overhaul the Sabres themselves have been undergoing over the past eight months. They're both works in progress, and also reflect the potential of a brighter future in Buffalo. "I would say it's a good correlation and analogy," Rolston said. "It's both out front and in the arena." Rolston is part of the Sabres' transformation in replacing longtime coach Lindy Ruff, who was fired in February. The changes didn't end there during what became a tumultuous, lockout-shortened season that ended with Buffalo missing the playoffs for the fourth time in six years. Before the season was over, the Sabres purged much of their old guard — including captain Jason Pominville — as part of a youth movement to shake up what had been an aging, high-priced and under-achieving core. And more changes could still be store, with goalie Ryan Miller and forward Thomas Vanek's futures uncertain beyond this season. Both are entering the final years of their contracts, and the Sabres haven't ruled out trading one or both. That's left Rolston tempering his early expectations of an opening-day roster that could feature as many as seven rookies, including 18-year-old defenseman Rasmus Ristolainen.
