In celebration of 50 seasons in the NHL, the Buffalo Sabres have released a commemorative jersey that suits their golden anniversary perfectly.

They’ve branded their newest threads as “The Golden Jersey,” and fans will see it in action for 13 home games this upcoming season.

The jersey features the iconic Buffalo crest in gold and navy, plus five stripes representing each of the franchise's decades on the sleeves and bottom. The inside neckline includes logos from past eras as an homage to Sabres hockey.

The team will wear white gloves and navy pants to complete the look.
