The Buffalo Sabres will be releasing a third jersey this year.
Team President Ted Black mentioned that it will be revealed this summer, which means we could see it anytime from the draft on out. With the Buffalo Sabres hosting a draft party – they could choose to release the sweater then, or more likely as training camp roles around, which is their norm.
What will the sweater look like? It will most likely be a darker uniform, sporting the blue color. Black revealed on WGR550 that it will not be a throwback, but will feature the teams iconic and beloved logo, which has been brought back although slightly redesigned.

I actually didn't mind the goat head with the exception of the fact that they changed the colors. Of course, I was a teenager when it came out so that probably had something to do with it....

I figured it out! just by looking at my Sabres HOME Pat Lafontaine jersey from 1991 and the Winter Classic jersey if you rotate the image 180 degrees you will see that it's a shoulder has a yoke design just like the old Sabres home jerseys had since 1996 the only difference is the jersey is mustard yellow instead of white and from the teaser video it looks like it will have BUFFALO on the front with the updated crest that the Sabres have on the home and away jerseys now.

As much as I want the back to be blue, I'm not sure that this pics proves it. That could still be a side stripe, like the idiotic one on the Donahoe era Bills uniforms.

But I do think the back will be blue, and I think these are going to look great.

That most recent puzzle piece would seem to debunk that. I don't know what else that large area of blue could be, other than a sleeve, and we've pretty much seen the sleeves in bits and pieces.

If they're mostly yellow, I'll buy one just to hurl on it.

If we were just jonesing for the team to play in oct because of a good campaign last year, this marketing endevour would be awesome. But no one in their right mind is particularly interested in the team with the Bills actually showing signs of "getting it" and "doing the right thing". the sabres have become the bills with stale ideas and jamming round pegs into square holes.

the real PR play would be to get a bunch of the young guys together in the new 3rd jerseys, go over to the kids ward at Roswell park and have them spend a day with the kids, give out some jerseys, raise a little money and leave.

There is no goodwill between the sabres and the community right now and seemingly trying to gouge us for another jersey just doesn't sit well.

A little hyperbolic, no? The team had a 98% season ticket renewal.

The owner is actually doing something that generations of politicians have only talked/lied about, developing downtown.

This jersey campaign may be annoying to those of us to pay attention to such things, which is a tiny, tiny portion of the population, but the Sabres are basically in the same boat as the Bills. Young and getting younger. I think this is a very good thing. Apparently so do the season ticket holders.

i get that they are getting younger, but they are still trying to do this with the same loser who couldn't win with hasek and he couldn't win with the hottest team in 2006. this GM is broken and we need something better. they can keep bringing in talent but he'll keep being too timid to know when to put the pedal to the metal and go for it, vs sitting back and taking what comes.

i get your pointabout 98% returns. another season like the last two and no major changes with the GM, i don't think the numbers stay where they have been.

I could be wrong, but my patience with this "let's just be good enough to get into the playoffs and hope we can get hot" approach isn't particularly fun. for darcy's sake, he better hope they get hot really hot very quickly and that the goaltender situation looks like there is someone capable behind miller.

I totally get where you're coming from, and I can see where it looks like they're just trying to be "good enough to get into the playoffs..." but I really don't think that's in Terry P's DNA.

Regarding the loser Regier, I think he's the beneficiary of Pegula's stubborn streak. Pegula just doesn't seem like the type of guy who's going to let the fans and especially the media tell him what to do, so instead of cleaning house, he split the baby in half and fired Ruff.

Obviously, Terry underestimated how difficult it is to build a Cup winner, but I think it's way too soon to turn the page on him, and really too soon to think he's the type of guy who's just happy to participate.

I think he's got a plan, and none of us really know what it is, but I'm still glad he's here and I'm very happy that he's fixing up the neighborhood.

In any case, I really don't think the Sabres have a P.R. problem with the general public. Just us hypercritical message board types. And we're a timy fraction of the ticket and merch buying public. And you know as well as I do that we'll continue to buy that ****, regardless.

could it really be that simple? is this what the jersey will look like? only thing is it's going to be split, yellow on the front and blue on the back with the updated crest that are on current blue and white jerseys and the pants with the stripe going up the side of the pants that Patty LALA's wearing looks like the same size stripe going up the side of the new Reebok pants.

and the jersey being yellow instead of white?


could it really be that simple? is this what the jersey will look like? only thing is it's going to be split, yellow on the front and blue on the back with the updated crest that are on current blue and white jerseys and the pants with the stripe going up the side of the pants that Patty LALA's wearing looks like the same size stripe going up the side of the new Reebok pants.

Yes.

word is that picture is not the jersey. its a beanie thats for sale in the sabres store.

WOW now that's different! I'm still going to get myself one, it's a third jersey people! that will be worn 17 or 18 in games I don't see why everyone is getting all worked up over it. It's not like it's our home jersey/away that will be worn every game. Also alot of Sabres fans wanted a yellow jersey and IT'S BETTER THAN THE SLUG!

:rolleyes: they won't wear them against Boston, Toronto, Montreal, NY Rangers, Philadelphia, Detroit, Chicago I guarantee that. Ted Black and Pegula are not dummies! also Pegula is too classy of an owner and he loves the game of hockey he would never let us wear these against our division rivals or the original 6 teams! I'm guessing the teams that they will wear them against are Ottawa, Florida, NY Islanders, New Jersey, Tampa Bay, Pittsburgh, Columbus, Washington, Carolina and all of the Western teams Los Angeles, Anaheim, San Jose, Phoenix, Winnipeg, Minnesota, Calgary, Nashville, St. Louis, Dallas, Colorado, Vancouver and Edmonton.

If Black and Pegula are so brilliant and have so much class, why is this uniform even seeing the light of day? and thanks for naming every team in the NHL. I forgot who they were :rolleyes:

i think the jersey will look better on an equipped player. the shoulder pads will make it look less silly in the shoulders. the way the shoulder yolk dips down is goofy.

Well this is the city that carved up Olmsted's parks with highways, took a huge concrete turd in the middle of downtown to have "conventions", and considered converting an old professional arena into a tackle shop so not all that surprising.

Let's not forget the Skyway...(who needs the type of lakefront that Chicago has?)

...and the demolition of the Larkin Office Building (quite possibly the worst Buffalo civic travesty ever).

At least a wrong was "Wrighted" with the Darwin Martin House.

True but not until UB sold off many of the stained glass windows and the original front doors, I think.

I may have told this story before. I was in San Francisco many years ago and saw one of the windows for sale in a shop. Having just graduated from grad school, I didn't have much money at the time so I decided not to buy it. A few hours later, I changed my mind. Sadly, it was gone when I got back.
