What?? Why?

Just when you thought the Sabres were finally starting to get this whole design thing...

What is it that you don't like about it? I hate the idea of alternate jerseys, they're just there to generate money. I don't understand why people hate every jersey released though. These are fine.

I don't like the gray. I don't like the font. I don't like the two shades of yellow. I don't like the front and back being a different color. I don't like the neck. I don't like the "Buffalo" text. I don't like the overall design.

You know, all the subjective things.

It looks like a practice jersey to me. The weird, small Buffalo wordmark on the front is strange.

I'd like it more if it didn't look like someone took a label maker and stuck "Buffalo" on the front of it. Letter font choice is weird looking too, but I can live with that. It'd be decent if it didn't say Buffalo on it...

The thing that throws me is that there are four font types: Buffalo, Reebok, the number, and name... none of which are the same color.

I just realized the blue is a cape. It's a damn cape.

I hate it. It looks like a cape. I guess props to them for trying to do something different with the front and back being different colors, but I bet it looks goofy on TV and in person because its such a fluid game. The Buffalo across top of chest is silly, the line of material that runs along the sleve and then just stops at the chest is goofy, and I pray they arn't going to leave those two different colors of yellow.

I actually hope this is some type of joke. They have terrific home/away jerseys and the last third was pretty good..now this. I hope the Pens don't jack up their new thirds this bad..

Everything is wrong with this jersey.

The two yellows that don't match, the striping that doesn't connect across the chest yet extends well out to the sleeves for no reason. The front yellow/back blue concept. The random Buffalo wordmark on front. The clashing grey ends on the sleeves.

Boo this jersey. Booooooo.

Seems appropriate discussing buffalo 3rd jersey. Tatanka should be written on the front.

I feel like these looked a lot cooler as a mock-up on the designer's computer than they did once they were actually made.

They're not the worst I've ever seen but something looks off that I can't really put my finger on. Might be the whole two-tone design (front is gold, back is blue).
