The Sabres have announced a press conference with Larry Quinn at 4PM "concerning the team's uniform for the upcoming season." Rumour has it that channel 7 will be airing it live, but sabres.com says video will be available on the site to Sabres Insiders afterward - which makes one think there will be something to see.

I suppose we'll see what we see then...

Update: The pessimists were once again correct - nothing to see here. Just an announcement that the new alternate uniform will be the old blue jersey, and confirmation that Donald Trump's Combover is in fact the new logo.
