I wonder if Bills season ticket holders will be able to get tickets after Sabres season tickets.

Rumors I've heard are that it'll be Sabres season ticket holders first, then Bills season ticket holders, then the general public...

I'm still trying to work out a plan that will put my in WNY for New Years!

Get ready for an NHL big chill on New Year's Day: Penguins at Sabres in an outdoor game at Ralph Wilson Stadium.

The league is set to announce next week that the Buffalo Sabres will host the Pittsburgh Penguins, a person familiar with the event told The Associated Press, in what would be the NHL's second outdoor game.

The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the NHL has not made the announcement official.

The NHL said Thursday it will "make a major announcement concerning a special event" at a news conference at the stadium Monday.

A friend of mine is a season ticket holder, and his father works for the arena.. so he pretty much gets to choose where he wants to sit. From what I've been told, the season ticket holders will be in the lower bowl-center ice.. the only tickets that will remain after players, coaches, nhl ppl, government officials, bills/sabres season ticket holders... will be the upper deck. It shouldnt be TOO bad a view...
