Icethetics: Sabres getting new third jersey?

[Fitzpatrick'sbeard]

NEW ALTERNATE JERSEY At least one source has suggested the Sabres will drop their 40th anniversary blue third in favor of a new one. A black one.

I find that difficult to believe as well, when you consider the team's new ownership seems intent on solidfying the visual identity of a club that's struggled to find one over its history. This would not serve that purpose.

Essentially, the rumor says the black jersey will bear some slight resemblances to the Sabres' "Black Ice" jersey (right). Black Ice is a line of NHL fashion jerseys launched last year.

Again, I'm not sold on this particular rumor. But it's out there and worth a discussion. Black third jerseys were all the rage in the 1990s, much to the irritation of many Icethetics readers. The Sharks, Flames, Flyers and Capitals all immediately come to mind.

My brother bought one of those from someone in Buffalo who got them from China and got that identical Miller one for like $40.

First of all, READ the article

Second, there's not way they're adding a black alternate. They just aren't. One source sure isn't credible information, so take me as one source to say the contrary.

But I do still agree with rbochan.

I don't love it, I don't hate it.

I'll be pissed if they give up the script Buffalo jersey to use it though.

3rds we have now aren't that bad

Sabres getting new third jersey? do you see it now!

Yet you ask another question and end it with an exclamation point.

And why do you always edit your posts?

What the **** is your deal?
