‘This is the fifth major uniform change in franchise history. The Sabres wore their original jerseys from their inception in 1970 until 1996, when they switched to black and red uniforms that featured a logo that is commonly referred to as “the goat head.” The team switched to navy blue and gold with a logo fans dubbed “the slug” in 2006. After introducing a navy third jersey with the buffalo and crossed swords logo in 2008, the team added a white version in 2010 and ditched the unpopular “slug.” When Adidas began designing and manufacturing NHL jerseys in 2017, the Sabres removed gray from their uniforms, creating a sleeker look.’
