## Resource

Buffalo Sabres suffer crushing Game 7 heartbreak as Alex Newhook lifts the Montreal Canadiens with another OT winner, pushing the Sabres’ game seven record to a staggering 1-7. Are the Sabres finally on the brink of a breakthrough, or will goaltending woes and quiet nights from key scorers like Alex Tuch keep them locked in “Club Misery”? Seth Toupal and JD Young dissect Sabres’ playoff run, highlighting the relentless forecheck, Montreal’s surprise role-player heroics, and Jakob Dobes’ steady play in net. The discussion also covers controversial officiating, missed calls, and Buffalo’s critical need for goaltending consistency this offseason. On the coaching front, the Vegas Golden Knights spark off-ice drama by blocking Bruce Cassidy from job interviews while John Tortorella makes headlines with a post-series media blackout—raising questions about NHL coaching culture and future team moves.
