Buffalo Sabres open SAP Garden in Munich, Germany, against Red Bull München on Friday night

The Buffalo Sabres (4-0-0) finish out their preseason on Friday night when they face German club Red Bull München in the opening of the new SAP Garden in Munich. Buffalo brought back franchise favorite Lindy Ruff for his second stint behind the bench after firing coach Don Granato in April after the team missed the postseason for an NHL-record 13th straight year. Ruff was drafted by the Sabres in the second round in 1979 and played 608 of his 691 career games with the team. He later coached the club from 1997-2012, going 571-432-78 and 57-44 in the playoffs, including a Stanley Cup Final appearance in 1999.

The Sabres made a splash in the offseason, signing former Hart Trophy winner Taylor Hall to a one-year, $8 million deal. Hall, limited to 10 games last season with the Chicago Blackhawks due to a knee injury, came to camp without an injury designation. Hall, who turns 33 in November, was the No. 1 overall pick by the Edmonton Oilers in the 2010 draft and won the MVP award with the New Jersey Devils in 2017-18. He played in Buffalo briefly in 2020-21.

Buffalo also added veteran center Erick Staal in a trade with the Minnesota Wild and free-agent center Cody Eakin. Defenseman Rasmus Dahlin, 24, was named captain and all five of the team’s 20-goal scorers from last season are back, including Tage Thompson (29 goals), John-Jason Peterka (28), Jeff Skinner (24), Alex Tuch (22) and Dahlin (20).

Red Bull München placed fifth in the Deutche Eishockey Liga last season and lost in the semifinals of the playoffs after winning the title in 2023. The club has five players with NHL experience, including former Sabres winger Tobias Rieder, who has 478 NHL games under his belt.
