Well, seems the Sabres.com staff made an oopsie today.

Let's go SLUGS!

Camp fires up today with the rooks, and full camp starts tomorrow. First pre-season game is Monday against the Leafs. Also the TV schedule is out, and every game will be televised, thanks to Versus picking up 7 games this year.

Connolly still out and it looks like months. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Pretty sad as he was coming into his own at the end of last season.

I dont mind the new jersey and I plan to buy merchandise with the logo on it just so it stays around, mostly out of spite to the retards who are crying about the fact they changed to something other than the original Sabres uni.

Sabres should sign Miller to a 15 year/$67.5 million contract.

If novotny and vanek can pick it up, i like the sabres chances- they're so deep i think they're built for the playoffs. I expect Ottawa to win the northeast again and the Sabres to take the 4th or 5th seed.

I'm not really sure how I feel about 'em. They could've done worse I guess - at least they didn't pull a Bills and do a major downgrade.
RE: the old blue & gold - the white jerseys were fantastic but the blue duds were ugly. I would've liked to see them go back to those old home shirts and use them as the current road shirts (since home teams wear dark now). As for the home shirts, I really like the alternate reds last year but guess I'm in the minority on that.

I was in the love with the reds too. I think it may just that I love the SABRES in the logo. Heh. Very frustrating to me. Sabres fans are really at odds about this, and it's taking the attention from the on-ice product, which is not good in my eyes.

The way I see it, everyone hated the red and black jerseys/logo to start with. It grew on everyone, as will this one. But you are right, no matter what jersey they are wearing, they are still our buffalo sabres and they will be our team no matter what the jersey looks like.

I like these jerseys much more than the red/black... the 3rd jersey was ok though. It's too bad they couldn't have just updated the old logo, b/c I really like the new colors.

Also, just shows the more things change, the more they stay the same, another win over the leafs 4-0 [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
