Mostly because people cried and complained about the navy blue and wanted royal blue, but as soon as they got it, they now want black and red. 2 hours ago, bob_sauve28 said: My guess? The Avs, who have been traveling, and lost two straight games where they were shut out, picked up a flu virus in an airport or something and the whole team is sick. One thing I hate about flying is I always seems to catch some cold or flu in airports. Maybe the Avs did. Or not Don't they fly charter? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhenWillItEnd66 Posted October 30, 2023 Report Share Posted October 30, 2023 Have to say, this was a fun game to watch. One of the best games this team played in a long long time. Pretty much domination starting after a few mins in until the very end. Now they are showing they can hang with the best teams in the league, but they need to bring this every game. Johnson has been one of the best signings in a long time as well. His leadership is willing defense into every player and he makes our PK a ton better. Nice to see the team respond and i hope it continues 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All things being equal, I like them using the original logo and colors, with the Red & Black and special occasion type thing. Maybe we can get them all goat head t-shirts to wear the rest of the games? I just want them to win all the games. For whatever reason they do that more in the goat heads. I'd request putting them out there in purple polka dots if I thought it would help them win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank God, our PK is much better this season Three of the six penalties against were not, in my opinion, penalties: The two on Greenway were cases of players going in opposite directions bumping skates and Greenway was heavier on his skates, and the one on Benson near the blue line was a phantom call; he barely touched the guy and again it was incidental anyway.

Maybe we can get them all goat head t-shirts to wear the rest of the games? Not sure it would fit in with NHL guidelines, but I personally would not be averse to having the blue & gold away whites and black and red home goatheads on a permanent basis. As an old dude I have a fondness for the classic blue and gold but I think the black jerseys with red trim do make them look more intimidating.

That Aud Smell Posted October 30, 2023 Report Share Posted October 30, 2023 I'll post late, which is consistent with how I learned that there was a game -- when a buddy texted me mid-afternoon and said "a bit shaky to start, but that as a solid 1st!" I very much enjoyed the 2nd and 3rd periods. Terrific team effort. More, please! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SabresBaltimore Posted October 30, 2023 Report Share Posted October 30, 2023 For me, I first got into the Sabres as a kid when they were in the black & red. So I have a fondness for those colors and the goat. However I think the original color and logo is iconic and what the team should be using. And I'm sure the NHL wouldn't allow them to do 2 completely different uniforms full time like that. They won't let teams wear 3rd jerseys on the road either. My guess is the team is at the boundary of what the league allows because they use it as a promotion to try to get more butts in the seats. It also shouldn't be necessary to swap like that. But it does seem to fire this team up. I was half-joking about them wearing goat head shirts, but hockey players (all athletes) tend to be a superstitious bunch. So much of it is the metal game. If somehow that gets the team in the right head space, so be it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most airports have small satellite terminals for chartered flights. You do not go through main airport terminals and do not check in with the masses or stand around at airport gates waiting. Therefore, you are exposed to way less people. It is all about odds, and yes, it only takes one sick person .... what is your point anyway?

Exactly. He made more in his stint with the Sabres than I'll likely make in my lifetime. As long as he's smart about it, he can do whatever he wants. I logged into Golf Social Media (LinkedIn) and he didn't turn up, but then again neither does Adams. I guess for the Hockey Industry, you know everyone already so posting about synergy and best-of-breed processes isn't really required.
