You wish Ennis was as good as Skinner! lol


Ennis deserves a 2 or 3 year deal in the 3.5-4 range

It will take 500M+ to Raze the first ward, in preperation for said stadium

I didn't even think of that. That just makes such a venue well in excess of a billion.

If you want a retractable roof stadium that can be used as a multi-purpose facility, it's going to cost you upwards of a billion. That's just simply the price of materials, labor, and whatnot of something of that caliber.

Also, have you been to the Galleria Mall lately? The Canadians already do that.

Lucas Oil Stadium

Cost
$720 million[3]
($777 million in 2012 dollars[4])

Remember, Ney York state funded TWO baseball stadiums in the same year for the Yankees and Mets. They were both closed door deals and we will never know how much exactally we were forced to pay for them. Bills = NYS only pro football team. They owe us one!

Still not crossing my fingers though.

Ennis isn't as good as Skinner. I don't think there are too many people that would disagree. The question is whether or not he will get paid like he is. Those are two completely different questions.

4m - 4.5 a year ?
- gerbe75pts


Hey, let's not get carried away here. I said $4M to $4.2M.

I don't think he's worth that at the moment....but I think he will be on that kind of deal.

- gerbe75pts



I didn't say better. I said as good. Then why is Skinner a comparable at all?


I also said I think he should get 3.5, 4 tops, but all you seen was Ennis is better than Skinner

It doesn't snow that much in Buffalo. What a general, wrong, perspective on the weather here. Just because there was a blizzard once in Buffalo and all the dip sh!ts made a big about it doesn't make it an every year occurance.

You want snow, go to Oswego County, Pulaski NY. They get the MFing Snow.

Before you smart off about a place, at least know what you are talking about.

Every time I've been to Buffalo in the winter (which is several times), my impression has been:

- incredibly cold and windy in the downtown core
- completely desolate. There's no one there.
- quite a bit of snow.

What you say is true, from what I know, though. Some of those places in upper New York state are out of control. They get buried in 20 feet of snow every winter. Snow higher than the rooftops.

- t_leafs21


both have 2 years in the NHL
both have similar stats
both are young wingers

they are comparable, not the same, but similar. What is so hard about this that makes it difficult for people to understand?

i still cant believe that after some 10 plus years buffalo did not build another bridge to canada. i think this stadium could be a good thing. my only complaint would be that orchard park was built up, rather well, to handle the traffic. imagine some 80,000 people leaving the city

yeah they built the city poorly so the majority of buffalonians live in the suburbs. i personally avoid the city as much as possible.
