Even our opponents know what our symbol should be.

Yeah. That says Yashin.


What could possibly explain this? Was this whale fart huffing diesel fuel? I never thought I would say this, but (deep breath in) I really hope that's their last name on the back of that Vanek jersey. Because if it's not....... That's just fucking retarded. One of the biggest dissapointmemts in NHL history. Thats bad enough. It's like that tub of shit you see walking into Buffalo wild wings with a Ryan Leaf jersey. Except its on a Bills jersey. And it has barf with tiny chunks of cheetos on it. What amount of baby shaking produces a brain capable of such tomfoolery? Yeah I said tomfoolery! I am freaking the fuck out. Listen. I'm gonna make a cocktail and sit down for a minute. Just continue to stare in awe. I have nothing else to say.

P.S. I lied. This jersey should be set on fire and put out with a fifty gallon drum of hobo piss. Now I'm done.

Confirmation of a switch!

So, I was listening to Schopp & the Bulldog today and they were discussing the Bills celebrating their 50th Anniversary. They were talking about which year should be the 50th given that they were founded in 1959, but started playing in 1960. This led to discussion of the Canadiens' 100th and then Bulldog asked Mike Schopp, "don't the Sabres have one coming up?" Schopp replied "yeah, I learned this when I interviewed Larry ... that they will be going to a white version of that throwback jersey that they wore against the Rangers the other night, because they want a more classic look ... that will be in 2010-11."

Sounds like Larry did, in fact, confirm the switch! Don't know if I can handle another season of the Slug, but at least the light at the end of the tunnel may finally be in view.

***EDIT by Charlie***

Wanted to again give an idea of what the updated white jersey would look like from one of Carpandean's past ideas.

And while I'm at it, it's about damn time. Whether the slug was RBK's idea or not, thank you for distancing yourself from such a ridiculous logo. Now give Frank Cravotta some overtime and get hot working on this white jersey. I don't care if he is on salary or not!

4-0 in 2009; 5-1 in third jerseys!


The Sabres took a helluva lot of time to get rolling, but they posted a shootout victory over the Rangers tonight, advancing them to 4-0 in 2009 and bringing the third jerseys to 5-1 on the season. Miller's .977% performance looked great in his alternate sweater. Now we've gotta wait almost a whole month to see them again - Feb. 4 against the Make Me Laughs

Third Game Night


I love that, since they waited until November to premier the third jerseys, every other home game is in the thirds. Unfortunately, since they only play three home games in Buffalo during the month of January, tonight is your last chance to see them before February. Enjoy it!

How keen are your Sabres Not Slug senses?

What was different about their uniforms last night verses other non-third home games? Here's some help:

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!


Sabres over Leafs 4-1 (5-1 really; it was in before the net came off.) Lol, that's kind of ironic given Phil's comments in the last post.
