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.

Cougars

Emeralds
Evergreens
Firebirds
Kraken
Rainiers
Renegades
Sea Lions
Seals
Sockeyes

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.

  • Jwalkerjr88: Idk if anyone remembers the 2021 class but it was weak on offense outside or the top 10-15. I dont regret the deal just learned and move on. As long as you have assets, you can mold your build how you want. Picks are usually the most valuable asset because most gms want in on a draft.
    May 28, 2024, 10:19:34 PM
  • Jwalkerjr88: The results of that draft class is here [link]

    May 28, 2024, 10:20:54 PM
  • Jwalkerjr88: The 2024 and 2025 classes look much more promising than that one lol

  • BayAreaBallers: 2021 draft class was my worst class as a NFL Live gm. my 2022 and 2023 were better
    May 28, 2024, 10:32:52 PM
  • Jwalkerjr88: I think it was the worst for most of us. It was a bad class overall. The top was amazing tho

    Yesterday at 08:58:08 PM
  • Daddy: ProFSL has to be established by having great product or at least different product. We had the same old members. "Get off my lawn" types wanting to run leagues that were identical to the others. If you want 100 of the same old guys never chatting and no guests on the site. We had how many years of that?
