Lindback, 36, was traded to the Sabres during the 2014-15 season by the Dallas Stars. Although the 6-foot-6 goalie had a 4-8-2 record in 16 games as a Sabre, his play was quite good. This is evidenced by his .924 save percentage (SV%) and 2.76 goals-against average (GAA) while with Buffalo.

Lindback’s time with the Sabres ended after he joined the Arizona Coyotes during the 2015 NHL off-season. This would be Lindback’s final season at the NHL level.
