The Buffalo Sabres today announced the team will once again provide fans a chance to do some holiday shopping while supporting the Buffalo Sabres Foundation with the return of the annual autographed ornament surprise this Tuesday, Dec. 10, before and during the team’s game against the St. Louis Blues at 7:30 p.m.

With a $20 donation to the Sabres Foundation, fans will receive a commemorative 50th season holiday ornament autographed by a Buffalo Sabres player.

Starting at 5:30 p.m., the Sabres’ wives and girlfriends will begin selling the ornaments at KeyBank Center at the top of the escalators on the 100 level pavilion and by the 200 level bridge. The ornaments will be sold gift-wrapped, keeping the player who autographed each one a surprise. The tables will remain open while supplies last, and all proceeds will benefit the Buffalo Sabres Foundation.
