Last summer, the Sabres announced that they will be going back to their light blue color. Today, the organization made the #ReturnToRoyal official by revealing the team’s new home and away uniforms.

There they are! Simple, yet a flashback to the originals. They are not too flashy or overdone, either. The royal blue is finally back and here to stay.
Lovin' the new look ????

These are expected to be the home and away uniforms moving forward.
It’s expected that the Sabres will get a new 3rd jersey, but not until the 2021-22 season at the earliest.
This is easily my favorite part of the #ReturnToRoyal. That @BuffaloSabres crest adds a whole new dimension to this classic look! pic.twitter.com/09r8tDkAe5
