  1. The '05-'06 team is probably the most beloved team in Sabres history since the '74-'75 French Connection / Stanley Cup Finals team. MIller had his best individual year in navy and gold, but his best team wore black and red.
  2. Obviously that's a big part of it, but as Buffalo sports fans even our best moments end in heartbreak, so we're still able to overlook that.
  3. It was pretty popular in Buffalo. There was always a pretty vocal minority who insisted the Sabres belonged in blue and gold, but the majority of people here embraced the goathead while the Sabres wore them. It helped that the team was pretty likeable (Ted Nolan and the "Hardest Working Team in Hockey") and had a couple of deeper playoff runs around the time they switched.
  4. The Sabres have finally officially announced the black and red 3rd jersey that has been rumored for some time. No design released yet, but a schedule has been posted. I'm a little disappointed that they're not going to wear this for Ryan Miller night, since this is a logo he wore for the first half of his Sabres career.
  5. And got swept in their only Playoff appearance.
  6. I've seen that as well, but that is based on an unnamed "reliable source" and a since-deleted Tweet. I'm not saying it's not going to happen, I'm just saying I haven't seen anything official from the team itself. Some "reliable source" may have said they're doing the goathead for next year, and they are as their RR. It's entirely possible whoever heard that and Tweeted it assumed that meant black and red when it was really the blue and gold RR they were talking about.
  7. I still haven't seen anything official saying they're bringing back the black and red. Just rumors. Supposedly Pegula hated the black and red, so I have my doubts.
  8. Looks like the Sabres are going with the goathead in blue and gold this year. The t-shirt is white. Does that mean we can expect the jersey to be white? I was hoping for blue since their last RR was white.
  9. He wore it out of the tunnel before an open practice. Pretty sure he switched back to his regular white helmet before he took any snaps.
  10. Nothing says "Major League" like folding before playing a single game.
  11. They're talking about these, with the team name and number on the front rather than a crest.
  12. It's still got to hurt if you get hit in the face with a ball or stick and you're only wearing a tiny little cage over your eyes.
  13. I never understood the wire mesh goggles that women Lacrosse players wear. Why no helmets?
  14. Prospects gotta earn their stripes.
  15. I loved everything about these (including the color scheme) except for the number font. The font was awful.
  16. Don't forget the simplified version used for tattoos:
  17. Bills WR Isiah McKenzie switching from #19 to #6. PUNT GOD will take over #19. Bills draft pick numbers
  18. 1st Round pick Kaiir Elam will wear #24 for the Bills. Taron Johnson, who wore #24 last year has switched to #7.
  19. New name and logo for the Vegas NLL expansion team.
  20. The Panthers were always meant to be in the NFC and the Jags were always in the AFC. Whoever made the list on the box must have goofed. I forgot how goofy the NFC alignment used to be with Phoenix in the East and Atlanta in the West.
  21. Uniforms, yes. Logos? The Cardinals have had their logo for 70+ years. The Lions have had theirs for 60+ years. Sure, they've been tweaked a bit over the years, but they're still basically the same.
  22. That's an unfortunate placement for that exclamation point.
