Buffalo Sabres head coach Lindy Ruff has relieved Associate Coach Brian McCutcheon of his power play duties earlier this morning and says that Assistant Coach James Patrick will take over as coach of the power play. Ruff announced this after a meeting with Managing Partner/Minority Owner Larry Quinn and General Manager Darcy Regier this morning.
The Sabres went 0-8 last night and fell to 28th in the rankings in the NHL in the Power Play rankings. Meanwhile the Sabres Penalty Kill jumped from 8th place to 4th overall.
James Patrick should know something about Power Plays since he was a player with four different teams the NY Rangers, Hartford Whalers, Calgary Flames and the Buffalo Sabres until his retirement with the Sabres back in 2005.
Patrick ranks high among defenceman in both all times game played (1280) and total points (639).
how much do you want to bet that this was Larry Quinn's decision.
