(Image via Getty Images: Buffalo Sabres versus Ottawa Senators) How to engage fans and viewers? Come up with innovative ways to intrigue, surprise, and hook them! That's what transpired on the cyberspace of the Buffalo Sabres. On July 16, they posted a series of snapshots on their X. These snapshots had their 2025-2026 NHL season's opponents decked up as chicken wings. 'The Big Apple' for the New York Rangers. 'Cherry Blossoms' for the Washington Capitals. 'Woolly Wing' for the Utah Mammoth. But for the Ottawa Senators? They did not deck up the chicken wing. The Sabres called the Senators - 'Plain.' How did the Senators take it? Ottawa Senators reply with 'The Office' series fictional character Ryan Howard taking notes GIF 'The Office' is a popular American TV series with nine seasons. Viewers might have craved for more, but all good things come to an end, and so did the series! Anyway, an engaging element of the series is that it's full of memes. Memes we see in our day-to-day lives. One such meme came to the Ottawa Senators' notice. They focused on 'The Office' series fictional character Ryan Howard, played by B.J. Novak. In particular, Ryan Howard's taking notes GIF. In 'The Office' series, Howard keeps a tab on the colleagues who make fun of him. He jots down their names in a small diary. Now here, the Senators are jotting down the Sabres' name. Why? Because they're making fun of the Senators! The Sabres called them 'Plain!' The Senators captioned Howard's GIF with, "k." The 'k' stands for okay. Fans react to the Buffalo Sabres' X post of opponents decked up as chicken wings One fan wrote, 'Why did you gas up the Rangers more than the other teams?'

CNBC Daily Open: U.S. stocks are buoyant for now — but lurking dangers could weigh them down
There's a lightness in the air in Wall Street. Stocks have been rising throughout the week. The S&P 500 has just ended its fourth straight session in the green, giving it a 4.54% bump so far over the past four days. Tariffs are looking less thorny, for sure, as the U.S. negotiates agreements with other countries. But that's not to say it'll be a perfectly smooth path ahead. For instance, despite its agreement with the U.S., China is still withholding rare earth metals, crucial for important industries such as defense and energy, from being exported to the U.S. Similarly, even as India negotiates a deal with America, U.S. President Donald Trump appears to want more than just levies on U.S. imports cut. Trump told Apple CEO Tim Cook he doesn't want the Cupertino-based company "building in India." It's hard to imagine India agreeing to keep Apple's manufacturing out — or for The Big Apple to actually start producing Apple products. U.S. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell seemed cognizant of such complications and warned on Thursday that "supply shocks" could be "more frequent, and potentially more persistent" in the future. The sense of buoyancy in markets, then, could be a head rush — evoked by the U.S.-China trade deal over the weekend — that could dissipate once the gravity of the economic headwinds takes over again. Powell warns of potential supply shocksU.S. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said Thursday at a Fed conference that longer-term interest rates are likely to be higher, given that "inflation could be more volatile going forward" because of the possibility of "more frequent, and potentially more persistent, supply shock" to the economy. Powell didn't name Trump's tariffs, but flagged risks around them at the Fed's May meeting. S&P clocks fourth day of winsOn Thursday, the S&P 500 gained 0.41%, its fourth positive session, the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 0.65% but the Nasdaq Composite underperformed, dropping 0.18%. The pan-European Stoxx 600 climbed 0.56%, recouping losses from early trading. The FTSE 100 added 0.57% as data showed that the U.K. economy grew by an unexpectedly strong 0.7% in the first quarter. 'A little problem with Tim Cook': TrumpWhile discussing on Thursday Washington's trade relations with India, Trump said that he doesn't want Apple CEO Tim Cook to build factories in India. "I had a little problem with Tim Cook yesterday," Trump said. "I said to him, 'my friend, I treated you very good. You're coming here with $500 billion, but now I hear you're building all over India.' I don't want you building in India." Rare earth exports from China still blockedChina has temporarily paused export restrictions targeting 28 American companies following the trade agreement reached by Beijing and the Trump administration over the weekend. But it is continuing to block exports of seven rare earth metals to the United States. Those metals are essential for the U.S.' defense, energy and automotive industries. Putin and Trump skip peace meetingRussia leader Vladimir Putin and his White House counterpart Trump opted to skip Ukraine-Russia peace talks in Turkey. Responding to the diplomatic slight as he arrived in Ankara on Thursday to meet Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that the delegation of lower-ranking officials that Russia had sent to Turkey showed Moscow wasn't serious about talks. [PRO] U.K.-U.S. deal to benefit European automakerBritish businesses are still hashing out exactly what the recently-unveiled U.K.-U.S. trade deal means for them. The European Union is yet to strike its own deal. Despite this, one automaker from the bloc's biggest economy is about to see benefits due to its U.K. presence. India economic story not impacted by tensions with Pakistan The Indian stock market has emerged from a volatile few weeks and soared past the level it was before the latest India-Pakistan flare-ups. It shouldn't come as a surprise, though, because for a growing cohort of global investors focused on India, such border crises, while serious, are viewed as just one variable in a far more complex equation — for now. Indeed, the risks from recent military flare-ups appear to have been offset by the fact that India is considered by many to be an attractive investment destination.
