Saturday Sports Update
Top: Scenes this morning at Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park, as the Buffalo Bills prepare to face the Miami Dolphins. 12 weeks ago, the Bills had to deal with the heat of humidity of Miami in a 21-19 loss; tonight, it's the Dolphins who will have to put up with the elements of Western New York. As of early this morning, about nine inches of snow have fallen in the area, and there is plenty more in the forecast that will impact the game. The Bills will clinch a playoff spot for the fourth consecutive season with a win. Tune in to WDOE (101.5 FM/1410 AM) for live coverage of tonight's contest, with kickoff at 8:15 PM!

Skinner, who has 13 goals and 19 assists on the season, is coming off a three-game suspension served for a cross-checking incident that took place last week in a loss to Pittsburgh. Buffalo's opponent tonight is the Arizona Coyotes, with the puck set to drop at about 9:10 PM. Photo by the Buffalo Sabres
