Why would the Sabres wear white? Confusing. Also, I really don't see the Pens wearing the baby blues. I'd expect Lemieux-era black and gold... you know, from the championship years.

Because when they wore those it was still white at home?

This makes me alittle more pissed about how pens season ticket holders were screwed by ticketmaster. Weve yet to see the "about one thousand remaining tickets". Next time they should sell teh tickets for season ticket holders to...i dont know...season ticket holders!?

According to the link, the Penguins will be wearing these. Now, it's just a message board, so it may or may not be true. It would be great if they wore the baby blues, those are among my all-time favorites.

Throwbacks? That would be an awesome! Part of me has always liked the Sabres white vintage jerseys a tad more than the blue vintage jersey.

GreatSkate's customer service told me when I asked about the uniform for the game "Absolutely yes...white vintage."

And he replied when I asked about an official announcement from any organization and he replied "They haven't announced it yet but we definitely know about it...wanna get in your pre-order today?"

He also said that the jersey is made by RBK but is NOT in an RBK Edge cut uniform. It will simply be the same style cut as our alternate thirds from last year. According to them, there will be no NHL emblem on the neck. It is a replica jersey that they are selling as well, NOT the authentic.

Slightly off-topic, but does this mean they've officially dropped the name "Ice Bowl" from consideration?

Yeah. As far as I know it is officially always being referred to as the Amp Winter Classic, and "Ice Bowl" is still being used, but just informally and not by the league/teams/etc.

I guess we've been told (in Buffalo) ever since the "rumors" started during the summer about the Winter Classic that it would be throwbacks... so I think it's kind of a non-announcement for a lot of us.
