Hard to believe that was 20 years ago.

Am I wrong to think there will be three nights this year where they will where they will where one of the three previous main jerseys and salute a group of players that originally wore them?

That's a possibility.

FTFY.  That was back in '90.

It wasn’t the tag for the 20th anniversary (or was it the 25th).

The #### it wasn't.

I don't see the confusion, they've only had 4 primary logos in their 50 yr history, that's all their referencing. Matches with the inside trim of the caps seen at the Sabres Store.
You could argue that the original and the current are the same logo, with a lot of extra silver outlines. The Butterknives was only a 3rd jersey logo. You can make a case for it being a 5th logo but honestly, it's semantics.  I don't think they're trying to define each decade, so it makes sense to me.

Not exactly.  The Goatheads & the Butter knives are both on the ribbon liner.  But the Butter knives aren't on the new graphic.

The guy who does all this was in my class in highschool and his first project was the slug. He showed it to me before it was revealed and all I remember saying to him was "what is that and where are the legs"?! I was so pissed off and told him I thought it was awful.

I can only pray that the royal blue is not some new creation but time after time, they have totally screwed it up. They will get the money grab with the 3rd jersey this year and then do it all over again next year with the royal blue

 

 This is the designer of the Slug

They listed some details on their site and it mentions a special game-night celebrating "each decade" of Sabres history. So 5 nights? Doesn't necessarily sync up with jerseys, though. And nothing was mentioned regarding uniforms in that post.

The backpack in royal blue looks an an homage to the Winter Classic jerseys, I wouldn't read too much into that.  The one on the far left is all yellow with a yellow buffalo in the logo.  Does that imply an updated turdburger is coming back?  Again, I don't think those imply anything about future unis.
