The Buffalo Sabres interviewed Rikard Gronborg for their head coaching vacancy, reports TSN's Darren Dreger.
Gronborg is the bench boss of the Zurich Lions in Switzerland, and he's also served as head coach of the Swedish national team.
The Sabres fired Ralph Krueger amid a disastrous 2020-21 season, with Don Granato taking over on an interim basis.
Buffalo has also interviewed Rick Tocchet and Bruce Boudreau, among several others, according to TSN's Pierre LeBrun.
There are currently six head coach openings across the NHL.
The Sabres finished this past season 31st in the league, and they recently won the first overall draft pick this summer.
