Sabres sale in July sucked. I did grab some Rochester Americans pants but all the Sabres stuff was gobbled up by season ticket holders who got an earlier entrance time.
I emailed the Sabres back in April and never heard back. All the pro stocks pant websites have the old boring navy pants.
I'm sure if there was an equipment sale it happened a month or two ago.
They did have a very mild odor. It wasn’t a sweat odor more a neglected in a basement for a decade odor. Soaked them in oxyclean and washed in the washing machine. Now they are part of my high tech drying system.

I honestly don't know why whoever owns Cooper (Bauer?) or other glove manufacturers don't offer a black diamond type pattern for one of their gloves.
It may not outsell basic black or team colors but it would do well with older players. Don't need to come up with a new gloves, just a fabric pattern.
