Good luck in the sales department. I haven't heard one person say something good about these. Who would dare to buy one, and wear it in public?

I wouldn't be surprised if there was like... only 20 of those sold at the end of the season. And yet, 20 would be a huge achievement

The only thing that may be a keeper from the whole entire third jersey package is the font. It might be an unconventional, unpopular opinion but I think they might deserve a place on the regular jerseys, which should be the same shade of blue as the Bills, or at the very least something a heck of lot less navy.

I didn't like them at the initial unveiling, and I don't like them now. I realize individual tastes vary, and vary widely. But nothing about these uniforms makes sense. They are ugly and without any sort of unified design aesthetic. I genuinely believe, without hyperbole, that these are among the worst uniforms ever to appear on an NHL rink.

For all the bird de lis haters I think the bird de lis isnt supposed to be a pelican and a fleur de lis I think its just a fleur de lis with a pelicans head. Thats what it looks like to me. Also the flair around the tip of the beak is just flair that fleur de lis have sometimes source I am from NOLA.

On the Sabres website, they uploaded a video where a designer talks about its creation process. The final quotes from the interview...

Alternte uniforms are meant to be on the edge. And that's something that we clearly have done here. All these unique elements, it's something that we had a lot of fun with, and hopefully the fans will enjoy it as well.

The moment (unfortunately) has arrived

Whoever's in charge of green-lighting this stuff in Buffalo is just completely dead set on not putting out something good-looking for the Sabres. It's basically like they said "Oh, you got your old logo back. That oughta be enough to keep em happy," while lamenting the fact that they couldn't put the Buffaslug on it.

I like the name font and the wordmark on the pants. The captain/assistant patches on the shoulder I think are a push. Everything else is awful. Not only does it look bad, but it doesn't look like a Sabres jersey to me. 40+ years with no yellow jersey ever... maybe that means your team just shouldn't have a yellow jersey. The ESPN/Getty gallery is comical. The way the silver "sabre" goes onto the gray at the end of the sleeves is terribad.

Doesn't look like a cape on the ice. Just solid navy all the way down.

I don't know about that...

Na na na na na na na na na STEVE OTT!

It's like watching the hellish undead creakily shuffling their way out of the flames of a liposuction clinic dumpster fire.

Story B: Red Wings go undefeated and score 100 goals in every game. They also beat a team comprised of Godzilla, the ghost of Abraham Lincoln, 2 Power Rangers and Betty White. Oh, and they played in the middle of Iraq on a military base. In the sand. With no ice. Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.

Cue the overreaction memes. What is this; the college football thread?

You people overreact to the smallest things...

You guys do know that you're posting on a site for aesthetic and artistic nerds, do you? Any reaction is considered, "fair game," so give others some slack at the thought of seeing Buffalo's sweater and thinking that someone ran over their puppy.

they could be pink

Solid pink? Or just one side of it pink with the other side neon green? Because the solid pink doesn't sound all that bad after watching that game...

pink, black, grey, volt, carbon, and electricity, in a camo pattern to show awareness to the troops, and boobs.

Oregon already trademarked that color combination and pattern.
