PhillipBlunt Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Another team that actually successful NHL teams will end up bailing out in 5 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll probably be referred to as the Vegas Knights. Kind of how Anaheim Ducks used to be the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim lol True. commentators will probably just call them the knights after a season or two. I can see some yellow knight jokes coming.

Chris12345 Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 It's not the best it it's also not the worst. I know one idiotic team with a orca on their jersey which has very little to do with the current ownership group. I for one am jacked about this team. Not being from Vancouver I'd rather see a game in Vegas in November than Vancouver (sorry still love Van). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The team needs a unique and memorable jersey style similar to how chi, bos, rangers all have their own unique look. (could include LA in there too) It could be a popular brand in no time. time will tell! The out reach in vegas is so strong! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRussianRocket. Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 I would however would like to mention how this move will revolutionize North American sports so kudos to the NHL on that. Will be the first major sports league in NA to have a professional team in Vegas and I think it will be the beginning of more to come. The NFL will be following shortly and it's only a matter of team before the NBA and MLB do too. I genuinely think Vegas teams will be successful and will break the misconceptions it's just a party city as they do have loyal and committed local residents. ...in 10 or so years when all 4 major NA sports leagues have a team in Las Vegas, historically, everyone will be able to look back and point to the NHL kicking things off. That's pretty cool when you come to think of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fabiogooseface Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Too similar to Kings. Sounds like something the LA farm team would be called . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mustapha Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Well Pacific Division, get ready to see a new basement dweller next year. They will lose a lot of games, especially if they end up with Marc-Andre Fleury in goal like Craig Button seems to think will happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guntrix Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Not a fan of the name but the logo is okay. They could potentially be the cleanest jerseys in the league if done right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanuckGAME Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 I love the new logo. I already go to Vegas twice a year, I will be making alot more trips in the future. I don't see how people think this franchise will fail. Vegas will have a constant flow of people going to that arena. I haven't been this excited in a LONG time. I'm stoked. I'm already planning on going to the 1st ever game in Vegas next October Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
