Honestly, I wouldn't mind the Sharks ditching the orange and going for red instead. After all, the area that the triangle in the logo is for is the Red Triangle, not the Orange Triangle.

 

Orange is Anaheim's thing, anyways, as far as the three Cali teams go. I don't think the Sharks need orange to work; but I think they do need at least one vivid color. Removing all the vividness from the logo hurts it, in my opinion; it comes off too dark without that little punch of vivid color.

 

Yeah, if they insist on using a warm accent colour, then I'd definitely prefer red to orange (even a red stick would be tolerable) Sharks, blood, makes sense. Obviously I'd prefer it without though, and no stick. One can dream.

I'm Danny fkn Heatley, I play for myself. That's what fkn all stars do.

Straighten out the top of the triangle and this would be perfect.

 

Not sure. I actually don't think the straight edge suits the shark in this particular style.

I might be in minority. I think the Shark's edge 1.0 set was perfect.

You know what, looking back at them I’m starting to agree. Now, of course not including the chest numbers. But overall I appreciate them a lot more now. even the addition of orange. I used to hate it and wanted to switch it to silver, but I actually just did that on a concept and made it in my EA game and I was actually a little disappointed with it. Something wasn’t right. The orange actually gave it some pop and more of a California feel to me. 

 

i think if they went back to those, no front numbers and changed the shoulder patches it’d be a massive improvement.

I prefer the silver but appreciate that those uniforms embraced orange properly.  Right now it just looks like they can't decide if they want to keep it or eliminate it as an accent.  The orange bordering just one side of the stripe looks unbalanced and unfinished.  Couple that with the lack of a waist stripe and you have a mediocre design that looks stuck in 2008.

I don't think their first Edge set was perfect but the longer they keep the current blandness, the better it looks.

Unpopular Opinion: Sabres look better in navy blue. 

 

 

 

Nope, I agree with you. It makes the gold pop a bit more and better matches the mid-1800s US army aesthetic their uniforms appear to be invoking.

Flames uploaded there profile picture be this, does this mean retro jersey for playoffs?

 

Probably.  Would not be the first time for the playoffs right?  I am hoping that it is a permanent profile picture change rather than just for playoffs.  Like they should go back to the retro reds and whites as the permanent jerseys for 2020-21.

To me, the combination of the words 'Buffalo' and 'Sabres' evokes 1870's - 1880's U.S. Cavalry.

Without knowing the truth of it, I've always figured that the Sabres wore blue and gold because they were the cavalry uniform colours of that era.

The truth is that they wanted to look like the Maple Leafs but had to add an extra color.

 

I've always picked up a "western" vibe from the old Sabres stuff, too, but I wouldn't go any darker than dark royal.

♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫
