bigtalljoe Posted November 7, 2008 Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 Sorry if this has been posted in the past, but im wondering when we get to see the Sabres wearing their alternate jerseys this year. Does anyone know per NHL rules how many times per year they can wear them?.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carpandean Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 I believe that the first time is supposed to be against Boston on 11/26, but I don't have a link to confirm that. As for how many times, I believe that it's 15. Sorry, feeling really lazy after watching the Sabres game tonight or I'd look it up. :bag: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the rule again for jersey changes - 1 or 2 years in advance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwnikita Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 Sounds like a ploy by Quinn to get more jersey sales. What's the rule again for jersey changes - 1 or 2 years in advance? In case anyone cares, this morning I drove by Stewarts Sports in Lewiston and did a double take because they have the new 3rds in their window. I drove around the block to be sure, and yep...they're the new 3rds all right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carpandean Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 By the way, the Islanders are trying to do the same thing, so we can get some help pushing that change through: http://www.islanderspointblank.com/2008/10...classic-design/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jad1 Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 After Reebok changed the specs of the jersey. Anaheim and Buffalo got screwed over on that one. Yeah, I'd bet money that they are going to return to the updated original logo full time. The whole Reebok uniform "system" rollout was a complete mess, and the Sabres got caught up in the wash.

jimiVbaby Posted November 11, 2008 Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 Yeah, I'd bet money that they are going to return to the updated original logo full time. The whole Reebok uniform "system" rollout was a complete mess, and the Sabres got caught up in the wash. Larry Quinn was asked on WGR is the "slug" logo was here to stay and he said something to the effect that it was. Whether it be a third jersey or our full time jerseys. It really all depened on how well these new jerseys were received especially with the 40th anniversary coming up. I have been extremely skeptical of these thirds becoming permanent, but maybe it's more of a reality than I thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevbeau Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 Thrashers are wearing their 3rds for the first time tonight :sick: The officials should like the large numbers on the front. Makes keeping track of TOI a lot easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carpandean Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 Penguins are wearing their thirds (basically, the WC baby blue jerseys) tomorrow against us. Be interesting to see what we'll wear. Personally, I think they are light enough that we should wear dark jerseys, perhaps our thirds, but we'll probably wear whites. Would be a really cool time to wear the WC jerseys again or to unveil the super-secret white version of our new thirds (i.e., the primary away jersey for 2010-11 ;) .)

The throwbacks wouldn't be so bad for the "permanent" jersey, but I'd settle for the 90s style again. I honestly don't mind the current blue jerseys, but the whites with the red on the shoulders is utterly putrid. :sick: If the Sabres start wearing the original logo again, then maybe the slug one will be cheap on ebay. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shrader Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 Third jerseys done right: Canucks Why do they even have their primary jersey if they're going to use this one too? It's the same exact jersey with different logos. Very strange. Now, I'm not complaining about this 3rd jersey. It's very good, but it just seems strange to have two ridiculously similar jerseys like that. It's going to severely hurt sales of their primary home jersey.
