Trump's promise that Venezuelan oil will fund U.S. intervention in the country is an "outright lie," says Venezuelan American scholar Miguel Tinker Salas. "That failed in Iraq and it will fail in Venezuela."

Leafs outshooting the one of the best teams in the league 20-8 and 14-4 in the second. Don’t need this effort every night but 7 or 8 times out of every 10 games and they’d cruise to the playoffs. The problem is they’re only getting it once or twice every 10 games right now.

The Sabres stretched their winning streak to five games with a win over the Islanders. Six thoughts on the state of the team that is suddenly one of the hottest in hockey

Oilers Have Made Multiple Attempts To Acquire Alex Lyon

Xcel just significantly narrowed the PSPS zones for tomorrow to include mostly the west metro area and a few areas southeast of Fort Collins and between Loveland and Longmont. Xcel says 52k customers affected. Detailed map here: co.my.xcelenergy.com/s/outage-saf... #COwx

@jasonchen16.bsky.social @snmichaelamato.bsky.social I don’t know if I’m more upset with Vejmelka giving up 4 or the Penguins for only shooting 16 times.

I’ve been advocating for over a year the NYR are a fraudulent squad. Goaltending, power play success, and above average play from mediocre players has inflated their perceived quality of play.

Sabres could have overpaid / traded for a couple of these players instead of handing Krebs 1.45 & keeping Jokiharju @ 3.1. they are too small & young. Tanner Jeannot Dakota Joshua Matt Roy Brandon Tanev Eeli Tolvanen Erod Miles Wood Ross Colton Sean Kuraly Jack Roslovic William Carrier Marchment

Can’t believe I saw Quinn Hughes play his final game for the Canucks. Incredible performance. Great fans in Vancouver. Intellectual hockey conversation?

Every sports journalist is required to use the word massive in every story, audio hit, pod, and tv appearance. Enough already and figure out a different way to describe a situation as “interesting” while you’re at it.

@jasonchen16.bsky.social today is the day! Btw, I’ll be at the Sabres/Canucks game tomorrow with my son if you’re going and want to say hello.

Sunday Overreactions for @Sportsnet - Could Panthers miss the playoffs? #TimeToHunt  - Does Robertson deserve a spot on Team USA? #TexasHockey  - Should Canes add a goalie? #CarolinaCulture  - Will Sabres regret Norris trade? #SabreHood  and more..... www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/article/...

@jasonchen16.bsky.social @snmichaelamato.bsky.social I don’t even know why I draft goalies…

@snmichaelamato.bsky.social Scott Laughton is on the board. Leafs won the trade.

@jasonchen16.bsky.social @snmichaelamato.bsky.social The Roslovic train has to have run its course, right? Nuge & Hyman back pushes him off the power play and out of the top 6 when he returns?

@jasonchen16.bsky.social @snmichaelamato.bsky.social Some of the best trades are the ones you don’t make…

@snmichaelamato.bsky.social @jasonchen16.bsky.social I’m thinking of swapping Morgan Reilly out for Ghost. He’s come back from ir and nobody has snagged him yet. Reilly blocks shots and shoots but I don’t see him getting back on pp1 barring an injury to OEL. What do you think?

Chris Ianetta Mike Fetters ?? Sandy Alomar Jr. Ricky Henderson (faded) Andre Ethier ?? (57)

All Japanese hospitals are required to operate as non-profit entities. All surplus funds are reinvested into operations, infrastructure, or services—not distributed as profit. Medical fees are strictly regulated by the Japanese government to maintain affordability and prevent profit-driven pricing.

I love how Rep. Joe Neguse reframed this question.

@snmichaelamato.bsky.social @jasonchen16.bsky.social I think we’ve seen enough of Ehlers in Carolina to drop him. Not shooting and not adding any peripherals. Ice time plummeting. Available options are Barbashev, Svech, Kuzmenko, Blake, Iafallo, Boeser, Terry, KJ, Doan Thoughts?

Team I’m most concerned about based on expectations? The Minnesota Wild. - Lost 6 of 7 - 30th in goal differential - 31st on the PK - 27th in goals for - 30th in goals against #mnwild

I think I’ll hold off on starting Monty on my roster tomorrow. They are going to get absolutely crushed.

I think we all need to pump the brakes on the Habs. I don’t see dominance. I see they have squeaked out wins against a lot of mid tier teams. No injuries or adversity yet. It’s a solid start, but that’s all it is. Below NHL .500 after November.

@jasonchen16.bsky.social @snmichaelamato.bsky.social 12 team league Trade proposed to me I receive Sergachev give up Cooley Other C’s are AM, Ek, Zbad, & Nuge. Would allow me to drop Rasmus A or Hronek and maybe grab Neighbors, Lundell, Mercer, or W. Karlsson

@snmichaelamato.bsky.social @jasonchen16.bsky.social I had reservations about drafting Ehlers. Could have grabbed Marchenko, Raymond, or Wyatt Johnson. I went against my never draft Canes strategy and it’s starting poorly.

Thanks Paul. We all needed that. Happy I was there and lived to see it.

@jasonchen16.bsky.social I think the Sabres blew it with goalie depth. Ingram was the choice and Kevyn really put Buffalo in rough spot relying on 4giev. I like Lyon and I like UPL if he’s healthy. Team defense is much stronger and high danger chances should be cut down considerably.

New for @Sportsnet - Does Ingram have more upside than Skinner and Pickard? - If all 3 Hughes brothers want to play together, Luke's extension all but guarantees it will be in New Jersey and more... t.co/JwZu1W7DW9

@jasonchen16.bsky.social Jason, new fantasy year… new questions. I drafted AM34 and Morgan Reilly. Any interest in Maccelli? My other option in this roster spot is Anders Lee.

I want to thank @19thcenturybucs.bsky.social for the giant packet of cards with a banger of a 68/69 Tim Horton & an assortment of vintage OPC. Thank you so much. Send this guy some vintage Pittsburgh if you have any to spare. All possible by the Sunday connection thread @ngtcollectibles.bsky.social

Probably a long shot, How about a 1971 Felipe Alou?

If you have an extra $10 a month to spare, here's a list of worker-owned cooperative news sites you might want to support: • 404 Media • Defector • The Flytrap • Flaming Hydra • The Appeal • Aftermath • Racket • Hell Gate • The 51st • The Colorado Sun • Range Media • Discourse Blog • Pop Heist

While mainstream media is fully folding to fascism, it’s a good time to stop supporting it with watches, clicks, subscriptions, $. You can help more by SENDING $ to amazing indy outlets like @assignedmedia.org, @equalaccesspublicmedia.org, @404media.co, @propublica.org, and many others.

In the Netherlands, the government invests €595 million every year in cycling for transport. The €19 billion of economic benefits that accrue from that equates to a €31 return for every €1 invested. That's how smart governments do business.

Thank you to @sportsfanandy.bsky.social for the sweet vintage cardboard. If you haven’t checked out the Sunday free card thread on @ngtcollectibles.bsky.social timeline, I suggest you do. This kind of generosity makes me want to bring some heat this weekend.
