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:

Looking forward to the announcement on Tuesday. Exciting times in the NHL.

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

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

Thunder!...
I’m mostly curious if Seattle will be in year 20/21’ or 21/22’

"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!

It's official. Seattle becomes the NHL's 32nd team.

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.

Most of the names they're tossing out there, are better suited in the minor leagues.

I agree with PPG and Jonathan. Seattle needs to step up the naming of their team to make sure it appeals to a broad national if not international audience.
The names I've seen thus far are all very local and niche. Seattle's NHL team needs a global brand that everyone can identify with!

If the FNHL Seattle franchise is going up for sale, please count me as an interested buyer!

Great. Noted.
Not sure when PR wants FNHL to introduce Seattle, but will keep you and other interested gents updated. :toast:
