As part of their “Jersey Reveal Week”, the Buffalo Sabres have officially announced their return to their original royal blue and white jerseys.
The Buffalo Sabres originally donned the royal blue and white combination when they first took the ice as a National Hockey League franchise back in the 1970-71 season.
From there, with a few tweaks along the way, Buffalo would wear royal blue and white until the end of the 1995-96 season.
A new jersey concept, coupled with a new arena, awaited the Sabres in the 1996-97 season.
