The blue and gold color scheme is coming back for the Buffalo Sabres - just not as most fans expected.
The hockey team, in a move that has been anticipated since last summer, will adopt a new logo, one that features blue and gold. The Sabres used those colors from their inception in 1970 through the 1995-96 season, and fans have been asking for their return ever since.
The primary logo, however, will be completely different from the original. It will feature the head and hunched upper half of a charging buffalo rather than a full buffalo perched above two crossed swords.
The secondary insignia - a capital B pierced by a sword - is the same as the Sabres' current third jersey, but the letter is gold instead of red.
