That is horrendously bad, it may even be worse than the Isles thirds! Shame as I love navy/yellow as a colour combo but there isn't a single thing right about that jersey.

The biggest issue is the weird neckline layout, which causes most of the collar to be invisible, and creates strange grey pointy shapes.

I like the idea of a yellow Buffalo jersey, but this jersey looks like they took three jerseys, and mashed them together.

The only thing making me hope this is a lie...is that they DID release shoulderpatch photos, and i see none on that jersey....but if thats real...yuck.

That was my thought. Instantly displaces the NYI 3rd for worst jersey in the league.

Where did they release these supposed shoulder patches? I didn't see them anywhere.

Looking back to icethetics, what his post that said it was a shoulder patch, he edited saying it may just be a hat... so I guess disregard my post haha.

Definitely out there even for a third-jersey. Not a fan but, I think a few minor changes would drastically alter the look:

- Remove the gret striping down the front of the arms

- Only use one shade of yellow throughout the jersey (not sure if its 2 different shades or just the lighting/material - I know Rangers jerseys blue looks different on the sides vs the chest in pictures but, in person it is the same)

- Remove the grey striping on the back

- Make the Reebok neck-tag look blue

Jersey would look much cleaner. Not sure how I feel about the BUFFALO on the front. Numbers look big and I'm not sure how 2 digits will look. Would like to see it on the ice.

Sorry mods, I HAD to quote that pic.

LMFAO.

It's only frowned upon when done so, needlessly.

Heck, these all deserve a quote -

I just started reading this topic, and just about pisssed myself when I got to these.

You guys are the best.

Those jerseys are seriously horrible, though...got my hopes up when I saw the C & A patches.

Is it just me or was anyone els highly disappointed with the new Sabres alternate, I thought it was just a strange approach they too and a big let down. The numbers are massive and gray for some reason. I'm a fan of crazy unique jerseys seeming how my favorite jersey of all time is the Lightning's storm jersey. But I feel Buffalo could have done so much better. Their last alternates were clean and I liked the stitching on the numbers. But these just aren't clicking for me. Not to mention it made it even worse that it was debuted on a lame "twitter leak" by the ever so classy Steve Ott. Since it makes it's first appearance of the season tomorrow I would like to here how other people feel. Any thoughts?

Without a doubt the worst jersey in the history of the NHL in my opinion. Yes, I'm serious.

Yeah, Buffalo had so much potential to make a sweet jersey but fell well below everyone's expectations I feel haha.
