I was trolling over at Sabres.com and someone posted this from John Slabyk
recieved this email found it interesting.
Hey Sabres Fans,
First of all, the reason you are getting this email, is because at some point in the last 3 years you emailed me about some designs I created for the Buffalo Sabres. For that alone, I thank you ... but beyond just contacting me, so many of you offered your time and opinions on the subject, showing me overwhelming support. I have not had the time to write you all back about this project, but I have read every last email that has been sent to me. I love getting the feedback from you all, it only has helped to improve the end result and really please everyone ... although some of your suggestions were, lets be honest, just silly ( I'm not going to name names, you know who you are ... just silly ).
The situation that my designs has stirred up has been amazing to see. I've been contacted by so many fans telling me how much you guys love the designs, and wish they would be out there wearing my stuff rather than the slug. Believe it or not, some Canes fans had some great things to say. I even got some secretively supportive emails from a few Leafs fans ( Blow, Leafs, Blow ).
So what this email is also about, besides my unbelievable appreciation for your support, is the fact that I am in the process of putting these jerseys, as well as other merchandise (tshirts, hats, coffee mugs, possibly keychains) on sale for everyone soon. The tagline we'll be featuring will be TRUE FANS GET IT.
So to see which jerseys you want created first, I have setup a poll for you all to vote on. So please stop by and drop your vote in, and also send this email out to every Sabres fan you know. As a thanks in advance to all of you who do this, I put up some wallpapers if you'd like to throw some New Blue and Gold on your computer.
I think with the team doing as amazing as they are this year, its a shame they look so ridiculous out there. I want the Legends of the Sabres to haunt the Arena, not the Stench of the Slug. If you feel the same, we can let the Sabres Organization hear our voice by filling the stands with a true representation of our team ... a symbol we can all rally behind and cry out support with.

PS - Also, as a sign of support for the team, a percentage off all sales will be donated to the Buffalo Sabres Foundation, a great non-profit group that is committed to enhancing the quality of life for Western New York
I like this idea.
