apuszczalowski Posted September 4, 2013 Report Posted September 4, 2013 I bet you this is Larry Quinns fault somehow................. Kinda makes you wish for the Slug to come back ;)
That Aud Smell Posted September 4, 2013 Report Posted September 4, 2013 Jesus. I don't think this is a joke. http://sabres.nhl.com/club/gallery.htm?id=37853&utm_campaign=Wildfire+Message+-+NEW+PHOTOS+of+our+new+3rd+jersey+are+now+online...&utm_content=po_450244&utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Twitter edit: due respect to shrader. the photos at sabres.com seem to show a single shade of gold/yellow.
Bullwinkle III Posted September 4, 2013 Report Posted September 4, 2013 For all of you who hate this jersey, I've found a silver lining. They will now have no problem finding each other on the ice.
dudacek Posted September 4, 2013 Report Posted September 4, 2013 You know, I am reserving final judgment until I've seen them live. But the bottom of the sleeves really are mess.
TrueBlueGED Posted September 4, 2013 Report Posted September 4, 2013 Does anyone have a way to see if Robviously is okay? I'm actually concerned.
Stoner Posted September 4, 2013 Report Posted September 4, 2013 Does anyone have a way to see if Robviously is okay? I'm actually concerned. They think the heparin worked. Pray. Pray.
LaLaLaFontaine Posted September 4, 2013 Report Posted September 4, 2013 i saw that. i understand what you're saying. but i'm not so sure, man -- i see yellows. this got me laughing. Thank you. This post made my day.
Doohicksie Posted September 4, 2013 Report Posted September 4, 2013 I'm reserving judgment. I don't like it but I don't hate it. I guess it'll depend on how well they play in those jerseys. ;)
Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted September 4, 2013 Report Posted September 4, 2013 Those are real....holy moly I think the ownership can be summed up in the neck of the shirt collar. The word Excellence is there, and formed by 5 underscored words.....the first of which is "Belief" Now I can jive with the other 4....but to list "Belief" as the main key to Excellence.....I really think that's where this crew is. It's like the Wizard of Oz. Just click your heels and say "There's no place like home", and if you believe you will get there. I think stuff like this is in the locker room too. It's this Tony Robbins bs that will have us waiting another decade for results. Maybe if I "Believe" hard enough, Darcy will win Powerball and retire.
lalalalalaFontaine Posted September 4, 2013 Report Posted September 4, 2013 Holy hideous!! They could be used as a home and road jersey at the same time. Might as well go all out atrocious and make the front of the pants mustard and the back blue. What the hell, do the same with the socks. And then why not try the Jacksonville faded effect on the helmet. Who the hell in their right mind woulda given the ok to this???
inkman Posted September 4, 2013 Report Posted September 4, 2013 For all of you who hate this jersey, I've found a silver lining. They will now have no problem finding each other on the ice. Unless they are looking at the back of the jersey!! :doh:
Robviously Posted September 5, 2013 Report Posted September 5, 2013 Does anyone have a way to see if Robviously is okay? I'm actually concerned. The new job = crazy hours, so my internet fun time is way down. That said, I'm looking forward to showing this to my creative agency tomorrow so that we can have a quick laugh at the start of our meeting. If they ever brought something like this to our office it wouldn't make it past round 1 (and round 1 would probably last less than 2 minutes) and we'd be on the phone with another agency right after. But my company is run by competent people, so there's probably some disparity in how we do things. Part of me wants to congratulate the Sabres for beating the odds and making a strong bid for ugliest NHL uniform of all time less than a decade after the Banana Slug debacle. Holy hideous!! They could be used as a home and road jersey at the same time. Might as well go all out atrocious and make the front of the pants mustard and the back blue. What the hell, do the same with the socks. And then why not try the Jacksonville faded effect on the helmet. Who the hell in their right mind woulda given the ok to this??? Who the hell would struggle to think of anything Darcy Regier has ever done wrong? Oh, but that was the point of my posts a couple weeks back. A disaster like this does not inspire confidence. Nor should it.

Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted September 5, 2013 Report Posted September 5, 2013 "Winning is not a goal, it's a belief." Full circle.... Who said Psychology degrees were worthless?
26CornerBlitz Posted September 5, 2013 Report Posted September 5, 2013 i saw that. i understand what you're saying. but i'm not so sure, man -- i see yellows. this got me laughing. :clapping: :lol:
nfreeman Posted September 5, 2013 Report Posted September 5, 2013 Yeeeeeeeshhhhh. The front is kinda cool, but the back is awful. Did anyone want to be reminded of the slug? Still -- who really gives a crap?
Rico7 Posted September 5, 2013 Report Posted September 5, 2013 I don't care what they wear when they hoist the cup. But this is just a money grab. Ugly one at that.
LTS Posted September 5, 2013 Report Posted September 5, 2013 It's the grey and the safety strips that really bother me the most. The front, as plain as it is.. doesn't kill me and the cape swooping blue in the back doesn't bother me too much either. The grey? UGH. The Facebook comments are great.
Weave Posted September 5, 2013 Report Posted September 5, 2013 It's the grey and the safety strips that really bother me the most. The front, as plain as it is.. doesn't kill me and the cape swooping blue in the back doesn't bother me too much either. The grey? UGH. The Facebook comments are great. I don't much care for different colors front to back. And the grey on the sleeves is not terribly appealing. Had they left it at gold lower and blue on the shoulders running down into the arms I probably would have liked them a whole lot more. Enough to buy one? hell naw. I haven't felt the urge to buy a sweater in probably 15 years. Which is part of why I can't get any real emotion (or even care for that matter) going over this.
darksabre Posted September 5, 2013 Report Posted September 5, 2013 Yeeeeeeeshhhhh. The front is kinda cool, but the back is awful. Did anyone want to be reminded of the slug? Still -- who really gives a crap? Does anyone who wears a uniform want one that looks terrible? Military uniform, police uniform, school uniform, work uniform, or hockey uniform, there's one thing that ties them all together: not looking like a jackass.
Two or less Posted September 5, 2013 Report Posted September 5, 2013 Amateur front office. Amateur coaching. Amateur team. Amateur new jerseys. Atleast we can't bash the Pegula regime for not being consistent.
SwampD Posted September 5, 2013 Report Posted September 5, 2013 I'm firmly in the "I like it" camp. I'm almost there, but it'll depend on the breezers.
