New Sabres Alternate Jersey?

This might get half of you excited, and the other half upset.

Love it.  Keep the goathead alive.  It’s a great jersey.

The Goathead shall return.

[Thorner]

Excited for this, hopefully that "twist" is nothing major. 

If there is some sort of rule about how many colors you can have, perhaps it'll be a blue and gold Goat.

Funny you should mention that.  Sounds good to me!

Here are the reported Anaheim, Vegas, Pittsburgh and Philadelphia 4th Jerseys

Vegas is garbage but I guess they didn't have much to go on. I like the other 3 especially ducks and pens

Honestly I miss the Buffaslug. Became a fan in 07-08 and it reminds me of happier times; playoffs, Miller, Vanek etc

Those were good times. Though I do feel like we are on the cusp of more good times ahead.

Remember when we were sick of being a bubble team? Miss those bubble days.

If I had to guess, that Anaheim one is wrong. 
 

I would have to think they’d go with a Mighty Ducks jersey, with inverted colors.

Well I guess I can, kinda, take my a buddy's word that deals with this stuff to an extent... said Vegas would be red and Anaheim would be their throwback breaking through the ice;  Said the Sabres' jersey is royal blue/gold goathead jersey. Put the Sabres in the top 5 with the Blues, Pens, and Vegas; Buddy isn't a Sabres fan... however, his take on Vegas gives me pause.  Take it for what its worth... I can't verify without likely getting him/her in trouble (not that they would see this or likely care).

It would make sense but not feeling a blue and gold goat head; it’s like either do it or don’t do it lol. 

[Shmuffalo]

It may have been a prototype... this was several months ago. But, I agree.  Unless the Pegula's are full blown hashtag return to royal.

[Andrew Amerk]

A royal goat head would be fine and interesting.  
 

But when you’re getting into this realm of “inverted” jerseys - then what? A yellow goat head jersey?

A white jersey with current colors makes the most sense aesthetically

That black/red Sabres jersey design became one of the most popular in the hockey world. You'd be amazed how many youth and high school hockey programs in New England adopted that design pattern.

I used to like the idea of a blue & gold Goathead, but then I realized that the red and black is what made them seem so menacing.

Was there originally a picture or illustration of the jersey on this page?  Not seeing it.

[PromoTheRobot]

Nice if true.

 

[dudacek]

That ^^^ is retro done right.

That is pretty sweet. Too bad we won’t see Joe Thornton in them though.

You must not be from Buffalo. All self respecting Buffalonians cannot say a route or highway designation without “the” preceding it.

You got me. I’m from the opposite side of the state.
