In breaking news this morning, the Buffalo Sabres have just fired their Head Coach Don Granato after a failure to make the postseason this year.
The Buffalo Sabres had another disappointing season this year, failing to make the playoffs and going 39-37-6. While they finished above .500, this was not good enough to make the playoffs, and they are making moves because of that.
They have announced today that they will be firing Head Coach Don Granato. The announcement comes one day after the Sabres finished their final game.
