You can tell how excited Lindy is. I'm happy for him. I've rooted for him everywhere he went. Glad he's back. I know the team is going to play hard for Lindy
Ruff gonna love Tuch! Tuch will reach another level with Ruff, and hopefully leads the rest of his teammates to the same level he reaches! Go Sabres! 😤
Great to have you back Coach Ruff! Work on building the team over the summer and let's kick ass in the fall. Give these boys a bit of your heart and soul and we will be playoff bound.
Win or Lose, this is the coach I wanna I go on the journey with. We have faith in Ruff's abilities and leadership. Even if we lose and it doesn't go our way. We are at least trying to do the things we need to do to win... Go Sabres...
Last time lindy was coach I was just 11 years old, now at 23 it brings a tear to my eye I really hope he can bring us back to the playoffs it just feels right
This is an awesome video. Thank you for posting. Buying a season ticket pkg makes me feel a bit emtional. Like I am supporting Lindy to help bring this team to the potential and beyond. GO SABRES!! ❤
When I heard the team needed a new coach I immediately thought of Lindy Ruff. A year or so ago while watching a game…a friend and I said at the same time we thought Lindy was what the Sabres needed again. A dream come true ❤. We will be competitive again. Go Buffalo !
Lindy can do it have full belief, I was excited prior to this year but I’m even more excited now. The teams getting a bit older and that will help. I bet they do some off season moves and bring in a stud player. Buffalos making playoffs next year. -fan from winnipeg
Yup. Get Lindy behind the bench a couple yrs maybe. During which time they bring in right people to stay behind bench as Lindy slides up to whatever open spot has been waiting for him. Lindy on the road, Ruff at home!
Yeah, sounds like that's the plan. Because he keeps talking about taking the team to the playoffs. If he wanted to coach this team for longer than his 2 year contract then I think he would've been talking about building a championship team instead. Will be very interesting to see if they'll hire an assistant coach to groom for the head coaching job in a couple of years.
@@bajjanitoridk why but I have a feeling they're grooming Matt Ellis as that guy. Idk why. Also, I wouldn't read that far into those statements. Lindy knows what bringing a cup to Buffalo would mean to not only this team but the city and even his family. I mean he'll his son works for the team. Lindy is bleeds blue and gold. He knows what's at stake. And whether or not some fans want to admit it, this team has the skill to be in the playoffs. That's with having a good chuck of cap space to work with.
He's the right coach for this team that is filled with budding talent that has just started blossoming. Ruff is too good of a coach and motivator not to get this team into the playoffs. I'll be shocked if we are shut out again in 24/25. I think we could still use some trades to build mix in some solid veterans. We must get good goaltending as well. I think some of skill guys are gonna see their game taken to the next level with Ruff. Still lots of work to do in free agency and the draft, but the Sabres are heading in the right direction with this hire.
I found myself over and over again, just aimlessly scrolling all the way down RUclips trying to get to the very bottom of it… But there is no bottom of it… I never find anything that I’m interested in and then occasionally play music and then I go back to writing music… That’s about my day to day… Past four years
make the goatheads permanent and this team’s energy will be on a crazy nother level night in and out. i think lindy can get that club to a cup. he knows hes got unfinished business here and knows he wouldn’t wanna win a cup any other place with than buffalo
LOL you do realize he is one of the most successful coaches in the league and the best the sabres ever had, he had a 13 year run with a cup appearence and 4 total final fours with Sabres so I'd say it was pretty good now time to finish the job.. that's why lol
Question for anyone who’s happy with this hire happening so soon… hypothetically say that Tampa got swept and Jon Cooper was fired to shake things up. Is Lindy Ruff, whose message didn’t get through to the young fellas in Jersey, really the guy that is going to push this group and make them hold each other accountable? Maybe he can be, but what was the hurry? It makes zero sense
Well, Sabers got boring again. Did no one see that the mastermind behind NJs success was Andrew Brunette?! This season NJ took three steps back from last year and Preds went to poffs against all odds because of Brunette. Buffalo would need modern couch in likes of Bednar or Cooper. I'm predicting that under Ruff Sabers won't see any elevation of success. He might be nice and "used to be good" but the "meh" in Buffalo will continue. I hope I'm wrong though for the sake of fans!
0:20 Did this dude really say "congratulations"?🤦♂️ Anyone who supports this team knows the dumpster fire this franchise has become, if anything u should be apologizing 😂

Tuch is too woke .
@@rlasson657cry harder
Tuch is a lazy ass. Ruffs gonna try to get him traded
@@DorfyBoi Tuch has more life than you. and tuchy is our future captain. also theres copium here for you since he can kick ass.
This is surreal...... it's a magical moment to have him back the boys are going to love playing for him
Tuch gonna hit another level now
Great to have you back Coach Ruff! Work on building the team over the summer and let's kick ass in the fall. Give these boys a bit of your heart and soul and we will be playoff bound.
Welcome home Lindy!!!!
Glad to Have Ya Back. Can't Wait For Next Season!
Welcome Home Lindy!
God I really hope this works, what an amazing story it would be!
Im so pumped. Hes home
Didn’t think i wanted Ruff again, but i actually can envision this working out. I’m pumped, let’s go Lindy.
I smiled a lot watching this……
When does he get his name in the banners???
As soon as he wins a Stanley Cup with the Buffalo Sabres
I love his no-nonsense approach and demeanor.
Win or Lose, this is the coach I wanna I go on the journey with. We have faith in Ruff's abilities and leadership. Even if we lose and it doesn't go our way. We are at least trying to do the things we need to do to win... Go Sabres...
Welcome back coach, give our boys the energy and passion!
He's gonna help us do great things again! And I'm certain game 1 is gonna be sold out
MORE BEHIND THE SCENES!!
Welcome home. 💙⚔️💛
The legend is back 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Last time lindy was coach I was just 11 years old, now at 23 it brings a tear to my eye I really hope he can bring us back to the playoffs it just feels right
preach! i was about.... 12/13 when he left. now im gonna be 25. im glad to have another generation of the ruff! playoffs here we come!
Getting the vibes of this is Lindys last gig before he retires. Getting buffalo back to the playoffs
This is an awesome video. Thank you for posting. Buying a season ticket pkg makes me feel a bit emtional. Like I am supporting Lindy to help bring this team to the potential and beyond. GO SABRES!! ❤
Good to have you back, sir.
Alex Tuch in the weight room just 1 week after the end of the season. Just give him that "C" already...
Welcome home Lindy!! GoSabres!!
I love that he still remembers everyones names
Man I got a bit emotional watching Lindy coming back to the stadium so I can only imagine what he's feeling.
When I heard the team needed a new coach I immediately thought of Lindy Ruff. A year or so ago while watching a game…a friend and I said at the same time we thought Lindy was what the Sabres needed again. A dream come true ❤. We will be competitive again. Go Buffalo !

Was the first in line to have him booted back in the day, but also the first in line for this. Lets go Lindy! Lindy! Lindy!
Let’s go Buffalo!
Finally going to watch hockey again
Yup. Get Lindy behind the bench a couple yrs maybe. During which time they bring in right people to stay behind bench as Lindy slides up to whatever open spot has been waiting for him. Lindy on the road, Ruff at home!

So glad he didn’t accidentally call it HSBC lol
Class act
As a habs fan i remember the Briere Drury era with Lindy the best sabres team by far
This is the way.
He's the right coach for this team that is filled with budding talent that has just started blossoming. Ruff is too good of a coach and motivator not to get this team into the playoffs.

Good luck Sabre. You’ll need it.
Gotta win now been waiting since 70
Nature is healing, Lindy belongs in Buffalo!
welcome back home, lindy!!!
Love it
Welcome home Lindy
Let’s just hope he can do it
This is like when Dad went out for a pack of smokes, and now is trying to come back into my life as an adult
29 wins for him to hit 600. Be only the second coach in league history to do it with one franchise.
WELCOME HOME COACH LFG.

Great choice... Toronto misses out on a real no nonsense coach
Laffs are going hire Daycare Donnie when they fire Sheldon after losing to Boston in 5 games ! 😅😅
Guys who’s ur new captain???
i quit the sabres when they quit on him. I'm back with the coach that shoulda been here.
make the goatheads permanent and this team’s energy will be on a crazy nother level night in and out. i think lindy can get that club to a cup. he knows hes got unfinished business here and knows he wouldn’t wanna win a cup any other place with than buffalo
Lindy and Hasek were robbed by Dallas Stars’ Brett Hull’s goal line Stanley Cup winning goal.
If only pegula picked people with Experience after Reiger left
Poor guy gotta deal with all those photographers and social media people
Sabres going back to the playoffs in 25
Or just keep on extending the streak, so no other pro sport team can beat it.
@@willle464 jets are included as well
@@garrysaint-vil725 Don't worry it's going to be a ruff one next year.
Why did they get rid of Ruff in the first place?
SOOOO what makes you think it's going to be any better the second time around? Is he the only coach out there???
LOL you do realize he is one of the most successful coaches in the league and the best the sabres ever had, he had a 13 year run with a cup appearence and 4 total final fours with Sabres so I'd say it was pretty good now time to finish the job.. that's why lol
Team was on a decline of course he was let go back then... they had no choice doesn't take away how good of coach this guy is!
Question for anyone who’s happy with this hire happening so soon… hypothetically say that Tampa got swept and Jon Cooper was fired to shake things up. Is Lindy Ruff, whose message didn’t get through to the young fellas in Jersey, really the guy that is going to push this group and make them hold each other accountable?

Not all of us are on board. When the Sabres failed in the 2007 playoffs and free agency, I bailed on them and decided to follow Chicago/Patrick Kane.
Well, Sabers got boring again. Did no one see that the mastermind behind NJs success was Andrew Brunette?! This season NJ took three steps back from last year and Preds went to poffs against all odds because of Brunette. Buffalo would need modern couch in likes of Bednar or Cooper.

They will get 2 more points than this past season and miss playoffs again
Ugh that selfie video... 😬... leave the poor man alone. Player ones are cringey enough.
And the NHL tradition of hiring garbage old coaches continues.
i have a feeling this isn't gonna go well...
0:20 Did this dude really say "congratulations"?🤦♂️ Anyone who supports this team knows the dumpster fire this franchise has become, if anything u should be apologizing 😂
Go cry somewhere else
5 months and everyone will be tuning his grumpy ass out 😂
