This is why people like this terribly ugly jersey.  Reminiscing. Not because it actually looks good.  Because it doesn’t. 1 hour ago, HumanSlinky39 said: Oh, it's definitely dated. It screams "1990s", but as an alternate only worn a couple of times a year, I think it's pretty cool. I do wish they'd do it in the current color scheme, but whatever; at least it isn't the awful mustard bottle with cape jersey from a few years back. I could probably but into blue and gold goatheads.  2 Quote

The best team I’ve ever seen them ice was wearing those threads. Quote
drnkirishone Posted January 22, 2022 Report Posted January 22, 2022 I don't care about anyone's negative take on the angry goathead. It sucked when they changed from a top classic logo and color scheme....  but it was a great jersey. I will accept no arguments to the contrary 1 Quote
Huckleberry Posted January 22, 2022 Report Posted January 22, 2022 I became a sabres fan with the goathead, it was the only logo I knew. Didn't even know about the original colours or anything for years 🙂 Quote

With the prison vibe and being out of the playoffs 10 years and counting, I feel like I Am A Man Of Constant Sorrow. Edited January 27, 2022 by FogBat Spelling 1 Quote
mjd1001 Posted January 26, 2022 Report Posted January 26, 2022 I grew up with the classic blue and gold. I probably watched my first Sabres game as a little kid in the late 1970's, but I got really into them as a kid in the 1980s. So I was exposed to the blue and gold for years and years. However, I like the red and black better. Still do. Quote
The Dominator Posted January 27, 2022 Report Posted January 27, 2022 Normally it’s a jersey foul to combine a player and a jersey from two separate eras. But the NHL is archaic when it comes to selling throwback jerseys so this might be my only chance to get a Jay McKee jersey. It looks like the design will be close to 1:1 although the Adidas logo will be a dead giveaway it’s not from the original era. So, is this a jersey foul or no? Quote
steveoath Posted January 27, 2022 Report Posted January 27, 2022 Would this be part of the reverse retro thing? Apparently that's happening again next season.   Quote
Doohicksie Posted January 27, 2022 Report Posted January 27, 2022 Going back to the goathead certainly feels like going in reverse... Quote
WildCard Posted March 25, 2022 Report Posted March 25, 2022 (edited) Never had the original goat head jersey, seems like the perfect time to get some new gear Edited March 25, 2022 by WildCard Quote

Reverse back to winning... I have one of each... white and black... but may need to freshen the black one up as it no longer fits me... too small and the white one has a coffee stain. 1 Quote

PromoTheRobot Posted March 25, 2022 Report Posted March 25, 2022 I'm really liking the Heritage Classic unis. I hope they stick around. Looking forward to seeing them tonight. Tried to buy one but most adult sizes are sold out. 1 Quote
sabills Posted March 25, 2022 Report Posted March 25, 2022 At least the slug was the right colors Quote
