Seattle NHL franchise could get approved Tues!
« on: November 30, 2018, 06:39:33 PM »
The best game on the planet could be expanding again soon!

The NHL board of governors will meet Tuesday December 4th to vote. If approved, the Seattle franchise could begin play as soon as 2020. YEAH! :taco::taco:

A well-conditioned team wins in the first ten minutes, maybe less. The opponent is destroyed not just on the scoreboard but their will is broken when an opponent comes out hard and fast.

Here's a link to a Sporting News article about best possible names for a Seattle NHL franchise.

Cougars
Eagles
Emeralds
Evergreens
Firebirds
Kraken
Rainiers
Renegades
Sea Lions
Seals
Sockeyes
Totems
Whales

I personally like Firebirds, Eagles and Cougars as my Top 3 choices.

"Kraken" would not be a wise choice given the play on words, "The Seattle expansion franchise are Kraken under the pressure!" :rofl:

Totems seems boring.
Metropolitans shortened to Metros sounds as bad as the defunct MLB Expos! What the hell is an Expo anyway?
Sockeyes is junior league stuff.

Seattle should be bold and go with the Seattle Grunge!

I keep hearing it's going to be a "rubber stamp" approval Tuesday when the vote happens. You have to imagine with Hollywood producer Jerry B backing the group, they're going to push hard for a 2020-21 start date! Afterall, all investors want an immediate ROI!

Unfortunately we all have to wait an additional year to get team 32 on the ice.

Skyline is probably the best choice of the names I've seen. Sasquatches would be funny.

Good to see Seattle landing a franchise.

As for a team nickname, brother, I can totally see them screwing that up. Hopefully with Bruckheimer helping oversee things, they get steered in the right direction. BIG NO to Totems, Kraken, Sockeyes and Sasquatch.
