As part of the Sabres' Golden Season celebration, players will be dressed in custom jerseys in recognition of the 1978 NHL All-Star Game that was held in Buffalo.
In that game, the Wales Conference defeated the Campbell Conference 3-2 in overtime. Sabres forward Rick Martin scored the game-tying goal with 1:39 remaining in regulation, and then Gilbert Perreault netted the winner with 1:05 left in overtime.
The Wales Conference will wear white jerseys while the Campbell Conference will wear orange.
The jerseys will be auctioned off after the event at
