TAMPA -- When the Tampa Bay Lightning host the Buffalo Sabres on Tuesday at Tampa Bay Times Forum, the scene behind both benches will be a lot different than the one at the beginning of the season.
Leading the Sabres will be interim coach Ron Rolston, having taken over the position Feb. 20 from longtime coach Lindy Ruff.
The Lightning will be led by assistant coach Daniel Lacroix and player development coach Steve Thomas, who will lead the team until new coach Jon Copper takes over Wednesday.
Here are what the lineups will likely be for both teams:
SABRES
Steve Ott - Cody Hodgson - Jason Pominville
Thomas Vanek - Tyler Ennis - Ville Leino
Nathan Gerbe - Jochen Hecht - Patrick Kaleta
Marcus Foligno - Kevin Porter - Brian Flynn

LIGHTNING
Alex Killorn - Steven Stamkos - Martin St. Louis
