On Monday (May 13), the Buffalo Sabres promoted Rochester Americans' head coach Seth Appert to an assistant role on Lindy Ruff's staff ahead of the 2024-25 NHL season. This move comes after the Amerks were eliminated by the Syracuse Crunch (May 10) in the second round of the American Hockey League's Calder Cup Playoffs. Under Appert's four-year tenure, the Sabres' AHL affiliate made the postseason three times, including a memorable run to the Eastern Conference Final in 2022-23, where they lost to the Hershey Bears in six games.
