I'm really hoping it's not black and gold. I've already got a black and gold team and trying to find stuff to wear is horrible. Everything is either black and looks like trash after washing it five times or you walk around looking like a mustard bottle. That picture with the lady in the gold shirt is a perfect example.

Plus, if the gold here is anything like the gold for Mizzou you'll have 10 different shades of gold for everything and all of it will look horrible.

At the very least: They haven't let go of the idea of the Army Black Knights since they chose those exact colors for the "Las Vegas" part of the decal!

The whole effort has been black and gold since the start, back when Black Knights was Foley's obvious choice. I think it's just keeping the brand (such as it is) as consistent as possible until the logo/name/brand comes out.

Idk how to post twitter links here but here is posts yesterday from Steve Carp (LVRJ writer) who's been on top of everything team related.

One thing Vegas NHL fans didn't agree on? The name for team. Too many different ones to mention. But no one liked Black Knights.

They don't have to worry because Black Knights won't be the name. Silver Knights? There's a good chance. But only Bill Foley knows for sure.

Colors are set using Pantene # to ensure everyone's on the same page for colors.

(See the history of the Sharks' teal. )

Tell that to Mizzou fans, I can Pantone match all my business stuff but they can't figure out gold for Mizzou stuff. Plus, I think you notice differences more with gold.

I've got a closet full of Sharks stuff and there's probably five shades of teal, it's just not as noticeable as gold. Gold is either gold, yellow, or poop brown. Boo to gold.

Decals? I swear I've seen photos/video where the artwork/logos are painted. How do they get the ice so uniformly perfectly white?

Flyers do it by hand.

And a LET'S GO FLY-ERS chant just broke out in my head...ugh this is going to be tough.

100 local kids get to test out the ice

I am going to the Kings vs. Avs game. Can't wait.

I hope a lot of Vegas fans go to one of the games. Kings fans will be drunk and stupid( at least some) but i think most are not upset that Vegas has a team. Knock us out of the playoffs and then the hate will set in.
