BUFFALO, N.Y.—The Buffalo Bills were so dull during their lean years, comedian Nick Bakay feared his body would fuse to the couch while watching them play. Two days later, the Sabres won the NHL draft lottery — something Buffalo lost the previous two times it finished last — and the opportunity to select projected No. He then yelped with excitement upon learning the Sabres won the lottery while attending the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner in Washington. The Bills and Sabres have won five playoff games combined since 2008. “It’s like all of a sudden we’ve got go-big-or-go-home-talent coming our way,” Bakay said.
