On average you get 11 inches more of precipitation per year. Plus on average our summers are much sunnier than yours. http://www.erh.noaa.gov/er/buf/compsum.htm You say our weather is bad.

It's pretty sad when you just can't take your losses like a man and not look at bad mouthing a city especially when New York is not as pretty a place as you all would like to think. I've been there and it's a nice place to visit but wouldn't want to live there. As far as Drury and Briere, I guess you haven't noticed but they aren't the only guys who can score on this team. We have guys in Rochester who can play in the NHL but there is no room for them. They showed that while we had 7 injured players. If either one of them leave, the money they make which is $8 million between them will just buy someeone else.

Rangers coach Tom Renney said. “You could really sense the disappointment there. Again, with all due respect to Buffalo, I just think that our guys felt we really needed to be better, and we weren’t. We, as much as anything, cost ourselves the hockey game. I think there was major disappointment to that end." Regarding the subtle and not so subtle jabs at the city of Buffalo, please promise we'll get to see the "at least we don't have to live in Buffalo" comments if/when the Rangers get eliminated.

I would like nothing better than to see how the Sabres fans react if they lose tonight ... they will probably still feel very confident but the Rangers are not the Islanders and you can't compare going to the Garden for games 3 and 4 to the Sabres going to the Mauselum for games 3 and 4 of their series there TIRF (Typical Idiot Rangers Fan) No,Chico specifically said “Whichever of these two teams advance to the Conference Finals will feel extremely confident that they can beat the Sabresâ€? ...

Take it easy. People are only poking fun just as much Buffalo fans make fun of NYC (like you did). And don't see Ranger fans started it because it's gone both ways pretty evenly around the Interweb.

You can't think of any reason our team sucks so you have to find something to make you feel better? My city is small, you got me. It also has a fraction of the problems you have. There were not any stories about a Latin King getting shot in the face in our paper, and we prefer our rats varment size, not the horses I have stepped over in the Big Dirty Apple.

Briere is currently making $5MM - early reads from the Buffalo front office have Drury getting signed, and Briere being let go. Briere is the currently the face of the Sabres - Drury is the heart. I guess the heart is more important - and in this case i agree. Rangers could try and get Briere - but word on the street is Briere is number one on the Flyers list (with money to spend).
