I've always liked Lindy. As a player AND coach. Just a tough and likable guy. Best of luck. We need it.
-
We're with you Lindy finish the job you started, make Buffalo Sabre hockey proud again , toughen that team up.
-
It just feels right having Lindy back home. Hopefully these guys will play for him and finally get somewhere
-
Great interview! I really felt last season the team was just a few adjustments away from winning many more games. I think Lindy has his finger on those details and will help us get there.

Lindy inadvertently spilled the beans… he said the rest of the league’s coaches saw what we did 2 years ago and “took it away”. Donny is a class act, but just like Marv in those Super Bowls, he got outcoached. He probably thought he could run the same gameplan back again because it was so effective and our scoring was off the charts… but the rest of the coaches studied it during the summer and found ways to stop us. Lindy won’t make that mistake and will make adjustments when needed, even mid-game if need be.

Hope Ruff can get the players to be PHYSICAL

Lindy belongs in blue & gold . Spot on interview. Can't wait for the season to start already. Man he is so down to earth. A lot of widsom in that Noggin I hope the young guys pick up what he's putting down.

I think he’ll get us in next year—the season will definitely be a grid though…as it should be, we should have to earn it, nothing is easy!
