    New "Goat head' Throwback Sabres Logo Design. Yay or Nay?

    Check out this design of the revamped "Goat head" Sabres logo, it's really not bad and I can see it as an alternate third jersey. Definitely better looking than the red and black version. Bleeeech!!!!

    after living through 2 bad non-sabre logos, why mess it up again?

    I liked the red and black uni's actually, but the classic version is just so cool they should stick with it. If they feel the necessity for a third jersey just do a slight variation of the original.

    See, I like the current logo, but always loved the goat head in current colors. That said, the current home Jersey is boring. Maybe make the shoulders yellow or something?

    The NHL should go back to the way it was traditionally and screw what other sports do...
    "whites" at home and so called boring colors for the road.

    I honestly can't think of any way to make the Sabres blue unis better. Way too blue.

    I hope the Sabres do the smart thing and don't start ****ing with the uniforms again aside from minor tweaks.

    Is that lighter than the blues now? It's hard for me to tell. Maybe keep the darker blues for the pants and the original blues for the socks and jersey like St. Louie?

    I think blue pants with a large, single yellow stripe up the side (think red wings template) would be perfect

According to Seymour Knox's wife Jean before she passed she said that "Seymour loved his team and the colors Blue and Gold, he wanted to keep the jersey Blue and Gold he only wanted to tweak the logo by having a new buffalo in between the crossed Sabres which was where the goathead was supposed to go" (if you take out the white streaking buffalo and put the goathead in between the crossed sabres you can see that it should fit perfectly like a puzzle piece) as for the change to the Red and Black the excuse given was other NHL teams where wearing red and black at the time wrong the REAL reason why the Sabres changed the colors because they were going to be sold to the Rigas's and Adelphia's colors were red and black. The late Seymour Knox III passed away before the first ever game was played in the arena

    I loved the third jersey the sabres used a few years ago, with the script "buffalo"... that was a great jersey

    The Buffalo Unie needs not ever to be tweeked. If they wanted to do a third jersey, I'm cool with that, but our jerseys are awesome as is. BTW, I loved your concepts!!! Loved the Nashville guitar pick logo, the red wings/tigers hybrid logo, la kings unies, old school minnesota colors, carolina canes revamped logo, and washington unies!! GREAT, great work!! Do you do baseball, nfl, nba??

    I could do without the grey armpits on the white jersey's currently. but I agree. the logo is solid and the colors are excellent.
