The game is soldout plus it seats I think over 80,000 for football. LK says 69,771.

Ralph Wilson fits 73,000 for football. So take your guesses.

Not really. I dont think they are adding any more seats then the ones already there.

yeap. it's good for the game though. Hopefully Criesby actually plays a good game and doesn't piss and moan. I'd rather not have our sport embarrassed by his girly actions at times.

I'd much rather have a game where it would be some good old fashioned hockey. Some goals, good goaltending, a scrap or two, and just good hard play.

These are two skilled teams, but I dunno how great the game is gonna be. I'd rather see like...Ottawa and Buffalo. The NHL just wanted Criesby involved.

Who knows, now. I'm sure the local crowd will show but the weather might spoil the day for some of the crowd.

Me and my buddy were gonna head up but they're calling for snow all day and even freezing rain. 6-12" in Buffalo.

It's 2'' to 4'' (we've all been watching the forecast religiously), and that weather would spoil the day for no one in Buffalo.

It'll be 73,967.

I'm just worried about the commute up. Me and my friend will decide early this morning if we're going to go or not.

No Gunnar was right it was 71,217. Remember some seats were blocked off because of sightlines and such so it was a reduced capacity.
