Looks like it is now official, according the the Pittsburgh Tribune Review. The Buffalo Sabres will host the Pittsburgh Penguins on New Years Day 2008 at Ralph Wilson Stadium. This will be a noon game to be played outdoors in front of a national TV audience on NBC. What a tremendous idea for the league and NBC. With the Penguins crop of young stars it will get some good ratings.
I would like to get as many Pens fans to this game as possible since it is only a few hours north of the 'Burgh. Please check back for updates and ticket prices. Tickets for individual Sabres games go on sale 9/15/07:

At this time there is no information available as to when and if the 1/1/08 game will be on sale.
UPDATE:
Greg has some good info on his blog for hotels and stadium facts.
