PTS Posted October 4, 2005 Report Posted October 4, 2005 Sorry, everyone, I'll try to find out what the hell is going on. I'm sorry for getting everyone's hopes up. I was 100% certain this was going down tonight.
DannyGare18 Posted October 4, 2005 Report Posted October 4, 2005 Wow that's the first I've heard this. I knew they are planning to have new uniforms for next season. Well, if that's true I can't wait to see them. I have no problem with going back to blue and gold, as long as it's a modernized version.
Satan81 Posted October 4, 2005 Report Posted October 4, 2005 This would explain why they didn't make any moves during the FA frenzy, they were too busy dealing with more important things like changing the jersey/colors/logo. :rolleyes:
Bino Posted October 5, 2005 Report Posted October 5, 2005 I also read that the team WILL be wearing blue and gold tomorrow night. Man i hope so/
Guest Kristian Posted October 5, 2005 Report Posted October 5, 2005 Blue and Gold.... Man that, would be like meeting an old dear friend you haven't seen or heard from in years. Win or lose, The Three Stooges, Marty smiling at the post-game interview after letting in 4 sofites in the third - I don't care, ditching the current scheme for Blue and Gold, even in an updated version, would mean something to me.
inkman Posted October 5, 2005 Report Posted October 5, 2005 Since i've only been following the Sabres since the early 90's, they have been in their current uni's as long as their former one's in my eyes but if the new uni's look good I'm all for it.
Saber61 Posted October 5, 2005 Report Posted October 5, 2005 yea im with inkman i like the red and black jerseys alot actually... but if times must change then times must change... which means its time to buy new hockey jerseys!!!!!!!! nice! can't wait to see what they look like... i hope there a nice dark navy blue with a nice deep yellow... that would be awsome.
inkman Posted October 5, 2005 Report Posted October 5, 2005 I like the logo & color scheme from PTS's avatar. Where is that from?
Shorty Posted October 5, 2005 Report Posted October 5, 2005 Doesn't anyone see this as trying to re-live better days? Move on, move forward don't try and go back to the past. We don't have the French connection anymore, Hasek is gone and the NHL is a whole new world. Oooh ooh I know, why don't we bring back no forward passes and allow goalies not to wear helmets if they don't want to, they were the good old days :rolleyes:
inkman Posted October 5, 2005 Report Posted October 5, 2005 Why the hell are they playing the same time as the Red Sox? Damn!
Stoner Posted October 5, 2005 Report Posted October 5, 2005 Let's hope the sabre is true to the original design -- sleek and sharp, best suited for sliding through the opponent's rib cage and piercing his heart, not for slashing through the jungle or hacking rope on a pirate ship. In other words, NO BUTTER KNIVES! Let's go Buffalo!
Guest joe blow Posted October 5, 2005 Report Posted October 5, 2005 Perhaps these are the jerseys and the reason for the confusion??? http://www.nhl.com/news/2005/09/234098.html Jerseys worn during first period and auctioned for Katrina relief fund.
VanekDrury Posted October 5, 2005 Report Posted October 5, 2005 Hmmmm, if that's the case is it safe to say they'll be on sale tonight at the arena? If so, I'm gonna have to get a Vanek one.
Spandrel Posted October 5, 2005 Report Posted October 5, 2005 No dice on the blue & gold tonight. They have come out with their home black unis on.

Assquatch Posted October 6, 2005 Report Posted October 6, 2005 CONFIRMED Not. Sabres are wearing the normal road jerseys.
shrader Posted October 6, 2005 Report Posted October 6, 2005 Not. Sabres are wearing the normal road jerseys. I would like you to meet my good friend, sarcasm. Say hello.
Assquatch Posted October 6, 2005 Report Posted October 6, 2005 I would like you to meet my good friend, sarcasm. Say hello. Sorry, your sarcasm font looks just like the normal font. And my post was to clear up confusion for those who were blacked out, and the only source of information they had was this board. Your post was more than a little confusing to them, I'm sure.
William2k2DJ Posted October 6, 2005 Report Posted October 6, 2005 That game was awesome. The fans rocked an the penalties are something we have needed to work on for the past few years at least. I miss Miroslav, he got hit hard, lol. I yelled, put Marty in after the goal passede where it was a messed up one.
Guest Vegas4BOC Posted October 6, 2005 Report Posted October 6, 2005 Why did everyone think they were going to wear Blue & Gold? The NHL has specific rules about that. In fact, the league marketing people need the advance notice so that they can supply stores and merchandisers all teams latest jerseys/styles in time for the beginning of the season. It will be next season when we get the original color scheme back....and I can't wait !! BTW, everyone just chill about Ryan Miller. Let him get in the groove of a few games. Geez, one shot and everyone wants to yank the kid.....the Sabres WON !!!! -Mark?
Saber61 Posted October 6, 2005 Report Posted October 6, 2005 well im glad we still have the Red and Black i grew up following this team with the red and black jerseys and theme... i like it... yea the logo doesn't fit the name but hey i think these jerseys are sharp... however i do have plans to accquire both vintage ones and any new ones that may show up.
Jim Bob Posted October 6, 2005 Report Posted October 6, 2005 The Sabres can't change the uniforms for this season. And they won't announce a major change too far in advance because it will kill retail sales of all the "old" gear. They might be able to get in on the NHL retro package and wear B&G a few times this year in throwback nights, but that's about it.
ddaryl Posted October 6, 2005 Report Posted October 6, 2005 I so dearly hope that they do come back with a modernized Blue and Gold look. I hate the present jerseys, hated them since the very 1st day the unveiled them. I rememeber my dissapointment when they finally unveiled them. I personlaly do not want to return to the original blue and gold, but I do want the majority of a new blue and gold design to represent the original well. HOCKEY IS FINALLY BACK !!!!!
Hockey Bisons Posted October 9, 2005 Report Posted October 9, 2005 I so dearly hope that they do come back with a modernized Blue and Gold look.

I personlaly do not want to return to the original blue and gold, but I do want the majority of a new blue and gold design to represent the original well. HOCKEY IS FINALLY BACK !!!!! Finally someone who I agree with on this thread ... Okay .. I'm a Sabres fan since expansion I remember going to the AUD before they raised the roof and capacity from 10,000 to 16,433 Used to be the Browns ... Reds .... Blues .. and Grays for the seating at the Aud I hate the original logo and uniforms .... BORING !~ The home uniform especially .. I could somewhat tolerate the away uniform in the blue The new logo and colors I'm not in love with either ... Don't know why all these teams have had a fixation with the color black If we're gonna change, PLEASE DO NOT go back to the originals as they were, and definitely not that Buffalo logo with the 2 swords Best uniform ever is the Buffalo Hockey Bisons of the 60's with the Pepsi styled logo .. kept until 1969/1970 when we won the Calder Cup Now those were cool ! B-)
