I would buy the Bisons jersey they just released in Sabres colors and style, but that’s about it on the cross-over front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotcha. If it just came from the internet then it's nothing. I thought the shirts were for sale in the Sabres store or NHL.com or something.

Kruppstahl Posted July 20, 2019 Report Share Posted July 20, 2019 Someone please explain the generally accepted widespread love for "royal blue" with our uniforms. I find it to be cheesy and the deep navy blue is a much classier, longer lasting look. I agree it does tend to look too dark on TV, but that's a different matter entirely. It's funny, b/c I think most Sabres fans LOVE our uniforms, like they are clearly among the best in the league. I have been looking at them since the 1970s and have ALWAYS found them to be kind of cheesy. Blue, white, and gold is not really a great color grouping and there's nothing special about them other than the leaping Buffalo logo, which I do like. I hated the goat's head, but otherwise LOVED the switch to red, black, and white at the time. When we wore our all blacks, we looked positively evil and the overall look was fantastic. We had some very tough teams wearing those uniforms too, which didn't hurt, along with some very talented teams. I have good memories of those uniforms overall, and if you are seeing a replay of a significant moment in Sabres history, the guys are probably wearing the red/white/black stuff. Anyway, so what's with the "Royal blue"? It's cheesy. Conceptually, I do think we should stick with our historically correct colors, so I don't mind the return to white/gold/blue, but then you have to try and make the most of it. A darker, navy type blue is a step in the right direction. I would love to see the gold somehow represented as more of a gold and not a red-tinged yellow as they are now. I believe I have done this before, but I will attach a photo of one of the few good looks I have ever seen with our color scheme. Would be nice to work a tiny bit of red into it so we can replicate this with our uniforms: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
