Buffalo to wear popular goathead uniform set for first time on Oct. 21
Get ready for more goathead.
After making a return as a third jersey 12 times last season, the Buffalo Sabres revealed Thursday the 15 games in which they’ll don the popular black and red uniforms in 2023-24. Fans will get to see them for the first time Oct. 21, when they host the New York Islanders as part of the Back in Black and Red theme night.
They’ll wear them multiple times each month apart from November and April, which will each see the jerseys for only one game. One of the two games in January will be against the Chicago Blackhawks, featuring Connor Bedard, the No. 1 pick in the 2023 NHL Draft. Four of the Sabres’ eight home games in March will be in black and red, including March 2 against the Stanley Cup champion Vegas Golden Knights.
The Sabres were 10-1-1 in the goatheads in 2022-23, outscoring their opponents 58-36. They scored at least six goals in seven of those games and at least five goals in nine of them.
