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.

  • Daddy: The rosters are set by a prior date not todays or tomorrows
    May 21, 2024, 10:00:53 PM
  • Daddy: If someone appears on your roster its because they are your player
    May 21, 2024, 10:01:21 PM
  • Daddy: Regardless of who they start the new season with.
    May 21, 2024, 10:01:40 PM
  • BayAreaBallers: are we allowed to post drops now or is that at a different time
    May 21, 2024, 10:02:42 PM
  • BayAreaBallers: last question
    May 21, 2024, 10:02:46 PM
  • Daddy: Only the newest NBA LIVE rosters are unknown as we will go with the newest version for the upcoming 2024/25 season.
    May 21, 2024, 10:02:54 PM
  • Daddy: NHL LIVE you must wait.
    May 21, 2024, 10:03:15 PM
  • Daddy: It doesnt start till 6/1
    May 21, 2024, 10:03:28 PM
  • Daddy: We just work fast ;)
    May 21, 2024, 10:03:45 PM
  • Daddy: Looks like its ready but the SS isnt finished and we cant do transactions till we finish.
    May 21, 2024, 10:04:25 PM
  • Daddy: Its not like the others. Its got NHL/AHL and formulas need perfected.
    May 21, 2024, 10:04:56 PM
  • Daddy: A lot of LIVE GMs came after i had won in football and built a monster in baseball. Many of you weren't there for the start. Like STLBlues. Like Braves. So you talk smack to the old Man (me).
    May 21, 2024, 10:09:00 PM
  • Daddy: I cannot wait to start these virgin leagues. So that (you too BAB) can get your deserved foots from day one. :)
    May 21, 2024, 10:10:30 PM

  • Brent: I don't know Hockey, but NHL Live sounds good.  I probably shouldn't have left FGM as I have a little more time than I thought after leaving a bunch of other leagues.
    May 21, 2024, 10:38:24 PM
  • STLBlues91: Think there are 3 more teams left until NHL gets filled up
    May 21, 2024, 10:40:10 PM
  • Daddy: Four (4) NY Islanders >> Nashville Predators >> Ottawa Senators >> LA Kings
    May 21, 2024, 10:50:47 PM
  • Daddy: They each had owners who uncommitted two of them went to other sites to try to copy the concept. Problem is no Daddy, no staff,  no LIVE.
    May 21, 2024, 10:52:54 PM
  • Daddy: Nobody on Earth does hockey like we are about to do it. Its a shame 28 teams are gone without most of the true profsl hockey guys signing up. That's a huge loss. For them.
    May 21, 2024, 10:54:45 PM
  • Daddy: If you love hockey and you love dynasty and you arent in LIVE than you must hate me or competition more than you love the others. Which is petty & not worth our efforts anyway.
    May 21, 2024, 10:56:10 PM
  • Daddy: NHL LIVE Spreadsheet [link] should be available to be seen.
    May 21, 2024, 11:35:31 PM
  • Daddy: @Brent we sincerely hope that you do join as a HOF level dynasty GM. The rules and a lot of format carry over from one LIVE league to another.
    May 21, 2024, 11:56:46 PM
  • Daddy: We believe that even if you don't know a sport well, we provide the material, and enough guidance advice that any disadvantages are minimized. Hockey is one of the greatest sports of all time.
