New Ice Laid in Buffalo

Icethetics reader Steven wrote in tonight about a cool new video posted on the Buffalo Sabres' official web site. It's time lapse of the new ice being laid at the HSBC Arena.

Notice the slug is nowhere to be found at center ice. Instead, the classic (third sweater) logo now appears in the middle of the rink. A sign of pleasant things to come? Also, Steven points out the new dasher boards are now capped in blue rather than red.

Enjoy the clip!
