Report: Sabres, Panthers interviewed Berube for head coach

Craig Berube is a man in high demand.

The bench boss of the AHL's Chicago Wolves has interviewed for two NHL head coaching positions this offseason, having chatted with the Buffalo Sabres and Florida Panthers, according to TSN's Darren Dreger.

The Sabres and Panthers are currently the only two teams with vacancies at head coach.

Berube has coached the Wolves for one season. He previously spent two years as head coach of the Philadelphia Flyers before being fired following the conclusion of the 2014-15 season, in which he posted a 33-31-18 record.

The Wolves, who will affiliate with the Vegas Golden Knights next season, were most recently the farm team for St. Louis, leaving open the possibility Berube could join the Blues as an associate coach to Mike Yeo.
