Most of the major hotels downtown (closest to the arena) are probably booked by now. However, sometimes a direct call gets a room. Try the Hyatt Regency (step outside, take a free trolley to the arena), or the Adams Mark, or the Radisson Suites. All are downtown. There's also a Holiday Inn downtown, but it's a ways from the arena and not on the trolley route.
Otherwise, there are tons of hotels at the airport, with prices running about $80 and up. There's the Four Points Sheraton, about 4 miles from the arena (and next to the Galleria mall) -- about $175. Then there's Amherst -- the ring suburb just north of Buffalo. The Amherst Marriott is about $200; there's a Holiday Inn for maybe half that. And for those who don't like chains, there's the Lord Amherst, at about $60. All of these mean you'll need a car or prepare to fork out lots of taxi fare, though it's possible that some may offer shuttles to the arena (haven't heard anything about that yet).
Since I live in this town (Amherst, not Buffalo), I hereby announce my willingness to answer questions for good hockey-l'ers. -- Including where to get the best wings. And I'm willing to assist whoever will be planning the annual dinner.
