Do you really think "spades" is a realistic team nickname or are you ###### with us?

That was more an option that sounds cool hadn't really thought about the meaning ha.

 

Just trying to think of actual options because we've literally heard every dumb team name joke a million times by now.

The Nevada Vanishing Points. Vanishing Points could also be an alternate for the Maple Leafs.

oh sorry, another dumb joke. 

 

Well, animal wise, Nevada has bobcats, mountain lions, bighorn sheep, kit foxes, diamondback rattlesnakes, mustangs, badgers, wolves, horned toads, gila monsters, antelope..? Black Rock Desert stuff.

I think the Mohave and its flora and fauna are probably the best place to draw a mascot from.

Indeed it has been. They're going to blow the entire operation with a bad name.

 

They talked about wanting to match how the Sharks and (Mighty) Ducks knocked their name and logo out of the park at the start which has probably contributed to organizational success, but the reports on potential names shows Foley is too self-obsessed to find the same branding success.
