Mingler55 Posted December 5, 2022 Report Share Posted December 5, 2022 Displaced Sabres fan here (Calgary, AB), trying to find my way to a Jersey before Xmas for my son. (Specifically a Reverse Retro Thompson Jersey) Anyone living in Buffalo have an idea of where a guy could order a jersey and have it shipped in time for Xmas? Finding anything Sabres where we are is like pulling teeth. Probably not the right forum/section, but I wanted to try somewhere.

ddaryl Posted December 5, 2022 Report Share Posted December 5, 2022 I found this https://coolhockey.com/products/buffalo-sabres-adidas-primegreen-reverse-retro-authentic-nhl-hockey-jersey?variant=42321416126671&gclid=Cj0KCQiAyracBhDoARIsACGFcS71D3gNJklV61rh71sDiBlRlE2ycucJ2TI358frSmeuwyf-jrdCLMsaAtpCEALw_wcB I just surfed to it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taro T Posted December 5, 2022 Report Share Posted December 5, 2022 Will likely be pricy, but if @ddaryl's link doesn't work out, the Sabres Store might still have some (or blanks they xan customize) and they do ship. Main switchboard # is 716-855-4100 and the phone tree will have the store as an option. Good luck w/ it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matter2003 Posted December 5, 2022 Report Share Posted December 5, 2022 (edited) Just ordered the following from DHGate: Tage Thompson - 3rd jersey(Black Goathead) Rasmus Dahlin - Home Jersey Dylan Cozens - Reverse Retro Jersey Jack Quinn - Away Jersey Shipping probably won't be in time for Xmas tho, but the savings make up for it. Ordered 4 Bills jersey from there last year and they great quality. Edited December 5, 2022 by matter2003 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CallawaySabres Posted December 5, 2022 Report Share Posted December 5, 2022 Anyone have a guess of it would be a mens small or mens medium if my son is 5'10"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know for the replicas. A size 52 fits a 5'9" person rather well. (So would assume a men's large. If it's going to be worn over other clothing might even consider the XL.) Remember the Adidas sweaters are narrower in the torso than a comparably sized CCM & also the sleeves are long. (Germans must have gorilla arms if these are any indication towards their general population. 😉 ) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My son in law is heavily involved in Buffalo Sports gear/memorabilia, if it's available, I'll get it, send it fedex/ups, so it arrives in time to be under the tree. No worries on payment, Buffalo takes care of its own. If I get it, I'll DM ya. 1 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also have family in Buffalo. It's a small world. Sounds like you are being looked after here, which is awesome. Good luck with everything. One of the best things about Calgary is coach Sutter and his wonderful Sutterisms. Don't be a stranger we won't bite ... at least not on the first date ... well maybe Inky will (hey oh, @inkman).

Scottysabres Posted December 6, 2022 Report Share Posted December 6, 2022 Ok, so here is where we're at, Reverse Retro XL's are not to be found, players or blanks, however my son in law is making some calls this AM on an XL reverse retro blank, Sorrentino's on Sheridan has the stitch on kits. If I can get the blank, I'll have Sorrentino's get it in order. I'll keep ya posted. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winters suck a little, but we get some great weather sometimes. It can swing from zero degrees F all the way to 40-45 F in a day with our "Chinooks". That's like -30's to + double digits over night (Celsius). it's the coolest thing. And Sutter is a GEM. So deadpan all the time. great entertainment!! My first Flames game was my first Sabres game. Been a Sabres fan ever since. Appreciate the Welcome!! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, we're not out of the woods yet, this XL is proving to be a tough nut to crack. I'm not sending you a replica, they are cheesy. The Adidas ones in XL before Xmas may not happen. But I have some more calls to make today, I'm going to remain optimistic, even my son in law is stumped, and that kid and my daughter are true fanatics. He took her to some Rochester games last year and got pics of them with Quinn, Peterka and so on, for her Xmas gift, he took those photos, and went down to Dave & Adam's and got both of them to write "Happy Birthday Alyssa" and their signatures on the photos and on the Skinner goathead jersey He got her. He's constantly wheeling and dealing in gear. Up in my closet, I have several items that are just amazing He got me. That Perreault jersey, signed by Martin, Robert and Perreault is just a straight out treasure for me. So if an XL cam be had, he's a blood hound, he'll find it.

LGR4GM Posted December 7, 2022 Report Share Posted December 7, 2022 I feel oddly invested in this tale of finding this jersey before Christmas. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottysabres Posted December 7, 2022 Report Share Posted December 7, 2022 @Mingler55 Very sorry to report that I have exhausted every avenue I can think of, called a bunch of places. I was unable to find an XL my friend. I feel as empty as Ryan O'Reilly at the end of a Sabres season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
