The AGH, if brought back, should be in it’s original black/red/silver/white. It just looks silly in blue and gold.
 
I like it. I think you maybe want to mess with the colors a little bit so the logo doesnt look quite so muted against the rest of the jersey. Make it pop.
 
The original uniforms have never; and can never be bettered.

The only thing weak in the originals was the socks, which punch copied from The Leafs.

Correct the socks, stripes off of the pants, and you have damn near perfection...

The Sabres have the easiest uniform to get correct. They just refuse to do the obvious thing.

I agree. However, I am a big fan of change and trying new things. That especially goes for team uniforms. There should be some constants like color (blue & gold) and primary logo, but try things out. Create a new 3rd or 4th jersey every year.

I definitely didn't like the red and black change, but having an AGH third jersey would have been fine with me. Not sure why the NHL stopped being creative. Maybe that should be, not sure why the NHL never got creative.

Change the shade of blue and gold if you want, create new secondary logos, whatever. Have fun!
 
So in like 10 years, are people going to be yearning for the slug jersey?

I get the memories associated with the AGH (mostly the Hasek years), but man, it was an ugly jersey.

Redoing it in Blue/Gold is just as bad.

Just leave the jersey alone save for some tweaks for special occasions.

Classic>AGH>>>>Slug

AGH was a sharp looking jersey that just happened to cut against the franchise heritage. If another team called itself the Buffalos (The Wisconsin Wisent?) and picked that jersey, we'd all be saying well done, guys.

The slug was a self-evident corporate groupthink nightmare that tried to turn an animal into a Nike swoosh because Nike makes a lot of money and then sell it to the rustbelt, who I think all collectively tightened their sphincters reflexively when they saw it leak into the newspaper, familiar as we are with what corporate groupthink types like to do to us.
 
Classic jerseys beat all, but if you made me choose between the ones in the OP, and the ones we have now, I take the ones in the OP purely for the royal blue.
