During this offseason, Die by the Blade has been looking to our readers for content of interest. Last month, there was a request to learn more about the coaching staff of the Buffalo Sabres. Well, we aim to please. Now that we have taken a deeper dive into learning more about head coach Don Granato (some of you were offended by the use of his nickname, which he himself embraces, but I digress...), it is time to take a closer look at the rest of Buffalo’s coaching staff.
Mike Bales, Assistant Coach
Before his time with Buffalo, Bales spent four seasons in the NHL as a goaltender from 1992 to 1997 for the Boston Bruins and Ottawa Senators, respectively.
