I was picking on Buffalo itself not the fans you're going to tell me Buffalo gets the respect it deserves outside of Buffalo I don't think so I'm still waiting for us to have a (frank)ing Winter classic

Still missing the point. Buffalo itself would get equal to or more than viewership then half the league. Because it would get high rating from its own state plus general intrigue from Boston for Eichel. It would surely get the same ratings nationally then Minnesota, Carolina, Dallas, Colorado etc.

You mean other than the very first one?

NBC absolutely sucks donkey Richard when it comes to being a fourth rate network. They used to have the best shows on TV. ER, Seinfeld, original Law & Order, Frasier, Friends and on and on. It really was "must see TV". But sometime after Seinfeld went off the air it started going downhill, then we hit the "late night wars redux" and we saw just how poorly it was run. And now, it's nothing more than a joke.

Yes another one I think it's ridiculous that we have yet had a rematch The first winter classic was absolutely perfect ,snow ,everything ,over time
and it was probably the most viewed Winter classic am I not correct


nothing more than a joke but they get views and they hit the jackpot with the real Olympics that's going to make up about two years worth of garbage

Let's not go overboard now I was making a joke you're making it sounds like Buffalo is the whole anchor to the NHL viewing like if buffalo stopped watching the NHL will be in jeopardy of losing half its viewers

And it's also looking pretty good for 2018 to have another one. We're building the rink for the WJC's, and it was unofficially stated that they were pushing hard for the Winter Classic that year too.

You would think with us being the highest winter classic ever that they would want us in the winter classic that's what I'm talking about the Buffalo hate outside of Buffalo

I hope your right

You mean Rio, don't you? I was confused for a second. Fake Olympics? I believe they have them for some time to come as well. But it's also momentum at this point. They haven't (frank)ed it up, yet, so they'll keep going with the same people. Why risk switching to CBS who don't have any experience covering an event like the Olympics even though they might, probably would, do a better job? They (IOC, and the vast majority of companies) are not in the business of taking risks.

And the Olympics are but once every two years. You can't run a network because you get a big contract every two years.

Yeah every team since then has played multiple winter classics, but no love for Buffalo. I guess you can understand though because we were terrible.

I don't watch much tv, but I'd have to say AMC is the best channel these days. They always have great shows, and some throwback cowboy movies mixed in.

No I'm just saying its equal to or slightly better than half the rest of the league. The national viewership would not be the worst or the best it would be right in the middle

I'm partial to HBO and FX. Obviously GoT is pretty amazing. Silicon Valley and Veep are by far the funniest shows on TV. And as good as Archer is it just doesn't match up, but still great nonetheless. Justified was probably my favorite show while it was on. SoA was fantastic, Fargo as well.

I don't even worry about the Bills making poor decisions. At this point it should be expected. I'm just glad I'm more of a hockey fan than football lol

Game of Thrones is great but I haven't found any other HBO shows that I really enjoyed.

Silicon Valley is great but not for everyone. HBO lost a lot of its great shows over the last couple of years. I can't believe that trash Girls show is still on..

The day will come when we cut LeSean McCoy or trade Sammy for a 4th because fans are upset at them
