POLL New Seattle Team Name

[elocomotive]

Listed are the trademarks registered by the team. While that doesn't guarantee one of the names on this list to be the name, it certainly makes it more likely.

Pick up to 3 names you like in the poll. Let's see which name the NHL Board picks. (Voting open until 12/15)

I like the Renegades. Seattle Renegades. Could also go with Emerald City Renegades. Wouldn't be surprised if they go with Emeralds though.

 

[esls79]

Voted for Rainiers because of Vitamin R.

 

[elocomotive]

I can understand why people are hesitant to vote for Whales, not knowing if Byfuglien will be on the team or not...

 

[Center Ice]

Seattle Potato Salads

"GO TATERS"

 

[Dolemite censored]

Orcas.

Not even close, and why wasn't Orcas included?

 

[Dolemite censored]

Sasquatch?

perhaps

 

[jstewismybastardson]

how bout they call them the Seattle Habs and use this logo

 

[esls79]

Why can't they just be called The Seattle?

You don't see the Mafia with a team nickname, do you?

Because the team didn't register that trademark, as noted in the OP that explains where this list came from.

Also, since the Canucks (their nearest metropolitan neighbor and the team many in Seattle cheer for) use orcas in their logo, it seems an extremely unlikely option for the franchise.

Everyone who voted for Kraken can eat some dicks.

He, or she, might be disappointed.

I don’t know how anyone can be unhappy with a big greasy bag of dicks. But to each their own.

 

[TheDayMan]

But seriously, Kraken is fucking lame.

Voted for Rainiers because of Vitamin R.

You're going to malk that for a while, I bet.

I voted for Totems because I used to work at a place called Totem Building Supplies.

ALL these names are lame.

I get it, you can't have any fun these days without offending some group or another. Also, you certainly don't want to pick a name associated with violent behavior for a hockey team, now do ya?

Because that would be wrong
