LOGGING BIG MINUTESDefenseman Christian Ehrhoff has averaged 25:06 TOI per game this season, the highest average of his career and the highest per-game average by a Sabres skater since Alexei Zhitnik skated 26:32 per game in the 2002-03 season. Jason Pominville’s average TOIof 20:57 is the highest by a Sabres forward since Miroslav Satan averaged 21:23 in 2002-03. MEET THE NEW BOSSAfter being named interim head coach of the Buffalo Sabres on Feb. 20, Ron Rolston became the 16th head coach in Sabres history.Rolston joins the Sabres after spending the 2011-12 and 2012-13 seasons as head coach of the Rochester Americans (AHL),compiling a 63-44-17 regular-season record. Prior to joining the Americans, Rolston spent seven seasons as head coach with USAHockey’s National Team Development Program, where he led the United States Under-18 team to three gold medals and a silvermedal in four tournaments as head coach at the IIHF World Under-18 Championship.
