‘Grönborg is a bit of an out-of-the-box candidate for the Sabres, having spent the last 13 seasons with the Swedish National Hockey program. The 50-year-old last coached in North America when he was an assistant coach with the Spokane Chiefs in the Western Hockey League in the 2004-05 season. Since then, he has served as a scout, an assistant coach, a team manager, and a head coach with the Swedish hockey program.’
