RUMOR: Mike Harrington is report a retirement tonight

[SabreEleven]

of the 3rd jersey . it is retired after tonight. it will never be worn again. I called that one a few months ago.

[clumping platelets]

Booooooooooo!

[Mski]

i really like this one... is the league getting rid of alternates all together? or are the sabres going to replace it next year

[SabreEleven]

The current 3rd jersey was a 40th Anniversary jersey....the Anniversary is over; two years ago. No current plans for a 3rd jersey for next season.

[Philagape]

That's too bad, it's their best current one.

[chernobylwraiths]

Like the colors, hate the jersey.

[OpIv37]

It's a decent jersey, but ever since they brought back the Shield logo, I like the regular jerseys better.

It was introduced because of the anniversary, not specifically FOR it.

The logo contains the year "1970" so it could continue being used.

I don't think it'll be gone.

that is good news- I just hope they don't use this as an excuse to make some ugly-ass third jersey and pawn it off on the fans. Some of the 3rd jerseys around the league are awful.

[trapezeus]

this was the first time the jerseys looked right and the 3rd was a nice compliment.

i remember how much i hated the knives with no logo in the old black and red days. then we had the slug with the dark blue current jersey.

i'm tired of all these jersey changes. i could do a 5 year period of no third jerseys across the league.

Ugh, I bought it! (from China)

[rbochan]

I'd rather they retire Ruff.

[Fitzpatrick'sbeard]

it's to bad because it seems like the Sabres play better when they wear these jerseys than the home blue and the white

[G Wolly]

Yea. 6 wins in the alternates as opposed to 16 in the home blues.

Obviously better.

That sucks! I enjoyed seeing those jerseys. :ill:

I love the script logo. But the uniforms progressively lost my interest.
