Sabres coach Ruff set to return

Hockey Betting Lines

02/14/2012 - Buffalo, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Buffalo Sabres head coach Lindy Ruff will return to his normal spot behind the bench on Tuesday night against the New Jersey Devils.

Ruff had been watching his team from the press box since suffering three broken ribs during last Monday's practice. Assistant coach James Patrick guided the team to a 2-1-0 record during Ruff's absence.

On Tuesday morning, Ruff said that he'll wear a "flak jacket-type of design" to protect his midsection. Assistant coaches Patrick and Teppo Numminen will stay close to Ruff on the bench.

"I'm going to have to be careful," Ruff said. "I won't be jumping up on top of the bench. I've got to stay away from some quick movements. Even yelling, I've had some issues when I've even tried to cough. The tough part is maybe just to stay calm when otherwise you'd get pretty excited."

Ruff also said that defenseman Christian Ehrhoff may miss Tuesday's game due to an illness.

Kurt Warner to start, Matt Leinart to watch

Despite the debate that's swirling , Kurt Warner will remain the starting quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals, coach Dennis Green said today. The Arizona Cardinals are the +7 point underdog at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com for this Sunday's game.

Green's comment came in a statement released by the team following an ESPN report that Green decided that rookie Matt Leinart would replace Warner as starter for Sunday's game at Atlanta.

"Generally talking about the starting lineup is not something we do," Green told the AP. "However, given the speculation that was out there we want to make it clear. We're disappointed after last week, but we still expect to be a playoff football team and we fully expect Kurt Warner to be the quarterback that leads us. That has not changed."
