Concern is we’ve been out played 4+ periods to 1

Game 1 ends with the Sabres taking a 4-3 decision after a stirring third period comeback in the final 8 minutes of the game after being down 2-0
Out of nowhere - Tage Thompson dunks the puck in short side after Swayman thought it was going the other way and it's 2-1 Boston.
After the play everyone pushing and shoving but the Sabres are on the board with 7:58 to go in the third

So the Sabres are putting Dahlin in a limo and picking up @katebits.bsky.social and @heatherberm.bsky.social to take them to a game right?!?!?
RIGHT!?!?
Not one sub to be made right now at 75’

After 14 seasons, the Buffalo Sabres' league-record playoff drought is officially over. A weight lifted:
The longest playoff drought in NHL history is over.
The Buffalo Sabres have clinched a spot in the Stanley Cup Playoffs.

Text from a Rick Steves post on Facebook: "A Millionaires Tax? Let’s Try Shared Prosperity! A new tax on fat paychecks like mine was just signed into law in my home state — and I like it. In 2029, Washington state will start collecting a 9.9% tax on income over $1 million. The 8,000,000 Washingtonians whose households make less than a million dollars a year will pay zero under this new tax and enjoy all the benefits of a better-funded state. And for the wealthy (like me and an estimated 30,000 others), every million dollars in taxable income that our households earn after the first million will cost us about $100,000. It takes a lot of money to run a state that’s as livable as ours. Yet Washington is one of only nine states that don’t currently levy a traditional income tax. Our state is still funded by consumption taxes, such as sales and excise taxes, giving us the second-most regressive tax code in the country. (Only Florida has us beat.) And it’s time for Washington millionaires to pay our fair share. Right about now, Republicans reading this are queuing up in the comments to holler their well-worn excuses: A state income tax will penalize, and therefore demoralize, Washington state’s job creators! Letting the rich get richer results in more wealth trickling down! Wealthy people will flee your state for those with more regressive taxation! (Since California and Oregon already have a comparable tax, that would be distant lands like Texas, Tennessee, and Nevada.) As a wealthy person myself, I see this tax as essentially free money for all Washingtonians. Everybody in my state gains. And speaking from personal experience, I know that anyone who earns enough to be subject to this tax is beyond the point where consuming more adds to their security, their well-being, or even, arguably, their happiness — meaning there will be basically zero human cost."
Text from Rick Steves Facebook post: "If you disagree, consider the minuscule impact this tax will have on my state’s millionaires. Now, contrast that with the value of close to $4 billion a year in tax revenue once it’s smartly invested in programs that will help the roughly one-third of Washington households living paycheck to paycheck. For those who still aren’t convinced, here’s a lesson I’ve learned in my travels: Even if you’re motivated only by greed, if you know what’s good for you, you don’t want to be filthy rich in a society with a huge gap between rich and poor. It’s just not a nice place to raise your kids. And remember: Shrouds have no pockets…especially if you’re a multimillionaire with no heart for your neighbors. Plus, helping build a better community for you and your neighbors just…feels good. I learned this firsthand back in 2011, when — after years of receiving a Bush-era tax break for the wealthy that I didn’t need — I noticed that to pay for that tax cut, public funding for community programs and institutions was being decimated. Recognizing the practical value of investing my tax savings in my community, I’ve donated $100,000 a year to our local arts center and symphony ever since, covering concert hall rental costs for our volunteer orchestra and much more. Paying a “self-imposed wealth tax” and knowing I’m helping my entire community has brought me great joy for 15 years and counting. It’s far from heroic…but it is a little lonely."
Text from Rick Steves Facebook post: "The “millionaires tax” that Governor Bob Ferguson signed into law today will make our state better than ever — not just for the working class and poor, but for everyone who values a healthy and sustainable future. And for us millionaires who are enlightened enough to realize that we’ve reached a point where consuming more won’t make us genuinely happier, it just feels right to pay a little extra. For me, it’s biblical (“To whom much is given, much will be required”)… It’s European (after all, societies that are equitably funded are much more “content” than ours)… And — for those of us with a heart for the public good — it’s simply common sense. Sign me up!"

WHOA. Lewandowski is accused of demanding fees from a private prison company to steer them ICE contracts, at a time when he was widely known to be running DHS on Kristi Noem's behalf, then punishing them when they didn't pay up.
Congress should conduct a full and bipartisan investigation into this.

The way most illegal bookies operates probably could have served as a lesson - a foreshadowing even - for legislators, professional sports leagues, and everyone else who had their hand in legalizing sports gambling. I have always heard that, despite what you’ve seen in movies, illegal bookies don’t break your legs when you don’t pay up. Their business model doesn’t run on the threat of punishment in order to be paid. The motivation to pay is simple: If you don’t pay, you can’t keep betting.
a lot of writing about sports gambling trades in novelty and levity. what @jonnyauping.bsky.social does here — combining his own experiences as a longtime gambler with analysis of @dannyfunt.bsky.social's new book on the topic — is both effective and haunting. mytimeback.beehiiv.com/p/everybody-...
Sabres beat the Lightning 8-7. What a night in Buffalo. You think these people missed games like this?
Hyperbole maybe but Ostlund punching Point could finally be what exorcizes Lucic running Miller
