Moser316 Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 i make a promise to all of you on this forum... if i ever win the lottery, or come into a huge inheritance, there WILL be a minor league hockey team in reunion arena in dallas, by the name of the Texas Tequila...logos, uniforms, etc... already been finalized now i just need a few million dollars The only thing wrong with that team is that you'd already have the arena in place and wouldn't need my services to design a cooler one, like I'd do for my Milwaukee RoadHogs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BallWonk Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 If you could name a hockey team, what would you call them? The two good things about the North Stars - a terriffic team name, that - leaving Minnesota were:1. Getting Norm Green out of the state; and2. Bringing the Minnesota Moose to town.I can't stand singular team names like Wild or Mayhem or whatnot. But Moose allows you to get away from the ubiquitous S at the end of your team name and still have it be a plural word. So, with apologies to Winnipeg, who treat the Moose much better than Minnesota ever did, I'd name my hypothetical hockey team the Minnesota Moose.Second choice: the Loons. Works pretty much anywhere that actually has naturally occurring ice thick enough to play hockey on. (Which, if I ran the world, would be a prerequisite to getting a professional hockey team in the first place. Does it ever get cold enough for kids to go out on a lake and play hockey? If not, no hockey team for you.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeh-see Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 Anything is good as long as "Ice" isn't part of the nickname just so it can pass as a hockey nickname. Example: Ice Bats, Ice Bears, Ice Dogs, ICE PILOTS (wtf) . Some rare examples of this can be passed off without a hitch, like if the team is just the "Ice," but those are few and far between.Anyhow, to answer the question on topic. I agree that the nickname shoud reflect the city/region the team is based, but if I just had to pic a name, because of my fondness of medieval history and mythology, I'd go with something like Chariots, Charioteers, Centaurs, Satyrs, Harpies (I actually used this for a fantasy team of mine), Sirens, something along those lines.~UJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthMan Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 the Evil Ice Destroyers with Long and Pointy Sticks and Masks that Kill All in Their Path.the unis could have a picture of one of these guys, and the wordmarks would be either very small print or EIDLPSMKATP.but seriously, folks, a good name reflects the area. the Hawaii IceStorm or the Alaska Rainbow are two examples...
