Mr. Golisano,





We the undersigned, as fans of the Buffalo Sabres, protest the proposed team logo design for the 2006-2007 season. It is a poorly conceived atrocity that does not reflect the history, tradition, or class of the Buffalo Sabres team or its fans. The logo resembles neither a buffalo nor a sabre. It has been compared to numerous unflattering things, from a hairpiece to a slug. This logo is an embarrassment to the Buffalo Sabres as well as the fans that support them.





We the undersigned choose not to support this logo, and will not purchase any merchandise bearing its likeness. We believe that the team must go back to the drawing board and deliver something better to the fans that have supported this team throughout the years.

    • This is an atrocious logo that looks like a horrible toupee. Are we the fighting hairpieces? Or the motherfreaking Sabres? It's either a sword or a buffalo, not something that Donald Trump might don. Why not go for a flying eel- because that makes just as much sense. Better yet, let's make them sponsored by C & C Music Factory. Awesome, now I'm pumped up for this idiot logo.

    • I can not believe that this is actually going forward - I look forward to the day when the management wakes up, realizes its' mistake and buries this in Love Canal with the rest of the toxic sludge this area seems to produce every 30 years or so...

    • i think they should have the original blue and yellow swords, along with the red alternate jersey with the swords, its a beaut!!!!

    • This is a bad joke. I understand the desire to spur sales, but the mark is woefully missed with this logo. Run a test selling the original logo and measure the response. Or, come up with something, that like the original or the classic Toronto Mapleleaf's jersey, has lasting resonance with a fan base. Wake up and pull your head out of your a$$es!

    • Seriously, after losing to Carolina we need a symbol to rally behind........not a slug with horns. We need the cup this season.

    • I have grown up watching the Sabres in the red and black jerseys and i like them that way. I f these jerseys are changed, the team will not be the same as it was....when we play pittsburgh we will look like them (please don't let that happen). If you are going to change the colours, do not change the symbol...it is my life and i live by it.

    • I have been to many sabres games with my dad. I remember Steve, the juggler who would sit in his wheelchair outside the arena before games. I am disgusted by the new logo, not only is it horrendous, but it bears a striking resemblance to the Atlanta Thrasher's logo. I feel that the sabres deserve a more respectable logo.

    • this logo is ugly...they should actually consult the fans and actual hockey players (these people know what they are doing) before putting something that ugly out there for people to be blinded by. i cant look at it too long or else blood will shoot out of my eyes and my torso will cave in.

    • It looks like a slug with a foxtail. Horrible. It's disgusting. It makes we think about cheering for the Blue Jackets... better to cheer for a bee than a slug.
