CJR Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 17 hours ago, DAKINS24 said: The London Knights have a large amount of pull within the CHL, and hockey for that matter. I'm sure they are just less forgiving with their trademarks. The Knights were never actually asked and don't hold a trademark on just "Knights" for hockey in Canada anyway, even though people said otherwise. Foley always wanted "______ Knights."

It'll be the logos and, to a lesser extent, the sweaters that determine the success or failure of the name.

FinsUp1214 Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Eh, I'll just call them the "Knights" anyways. I'm not too worried about the prefix. I'm much more worried about what kind of identity we're getting as far as logos and colors are concerned. "Desert" leaves the door wide open for a lot of different ideas, which is both a good thing and a bad thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might be a bit too close to Arizona's look, but who are we kidding? I think it could work well if the brick is minimal, like 3rd/4th color minimal. If it's primary though (which I doubt, but who knows), then I think that's where it'll be a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They said the name couldn't be "Black Knights," remember PotD 26/2/12 1/7/15 2020 BASS Spin the Wheel, Make the Deal Regular Season Champion 2021 BASS NFL Pick'em Regular Season Champion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've got a chance to nail this, and I think grey and/or black as the primary with gold and (possibly) another color as trim is the way to go.

WavePunter Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 What if they go with a neon-esque color palette that alludes to a desert sunset.. Black and tangerine with magenta maybe.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dynasty Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 I don't care what name they go with at this point; it's likely going to be something stupid anyway. I just hope the logo, uniforms, and colors are all solid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben in LA Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 A few links on the subject that I grabbed from Twitter (just do a search of "Las Vegas Desert Knights) http://www.thehockeynews.com/news/article/las-vegas-official-announcement-of-name-logo-and-colors-set-for-mid-november https://www.nhl.com/news/las-vegas-owner-bill-foley-says-name-announcement-could-come-next-month/c-282395414?tid=281011650 http://sports.yahoo.com/news/nhl-las-vegas-team-chooses-name-owner-denies-floating-fakes-173737853.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WavePunter Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 after reading the article and Foley's comments, i'm gonna go out on a limb and say Black, Gold, and Silver will all be in the color scheme, maybe with a sand or copper color as well.. the article made it seem like everything's pretty much in place, and deciding on which nickname suited everything best..
