Silver Knights or die!Still holding out hope that desert knights was a sick joke. I'd honestly prefer golden Knights and I still don't like that much.
Thanks BB. The helmet-banner's about a year and 1/2 old now. Knight-helmet logos are a dime a dozen out there. There's a lot of them. The banner makes this helmet a little unique. The spade tip is a slight reference to Las Vegas.Let's hope that actual ones look half as good. Still love that logo.
As of now, it's looking like "Desert Knights" is the front-runner, Hans...but who knows? I'm wondering if the cart's in front of the horse when it comes to the "Something" part of "Something Knights". What I mean by that is, that usually a name is decided upon and then logos, colour schemes etc. are designed around the name. In this case, the "Something" part is almost irrelevant. So, I'm wondering if they'll choose the adjective that best suits the best logo/look they have. For example, if he logo has, let's say, a sun, or vulture wings, or a scorpion, etc. as its main element...then Desert Knights would be the choice. Anyway, they'll be just the "Knights" for most applications, IMO.Still holding out hope that desert knights was a sick joke. I'd honestly prefer golden Knights and I still don't like that much.

It's a dirty name.I really hope it's not Desert Knights
While that is a badass shade of gray and would love it, I dont think having a cross on a jersey would ever fly on a professional sports jersey even though its a historically accurate crusader in that picture.
It would alieante the 10-15% of the athiest population in the US.
Personally as one of those aforementioned people, Im not necessarily against it though. It looks cool.
Counterpoint:Ok slight tangent: I was thinking that the cross would not be kosher due to religious people not liking it. Atheists wouldn't care, cross ham sandwich, whatever. But a dragon or hippogriff might work. Then my mind went to the mascot. Most teams have one, and I thought instead of a Knight walking around, the arena, they may go with a dragon mascot. Kids love dragons.
Counterpoint:
The Islanders mascot is Sparky the Dragon
Las Vegas Vegas Knights
Everyone will call them the Knights, but they get to market themselves as Vegas Knights without ever needing to spell out the city's name.
I mean any mascot can be executed badly, would you choose this mascot for a team called the Devils?
We had (and have again) the Moose, so now we're stuck with a stupid, grinning Moose mascot for the Jets.
They should bring back Benny from the old days. I think most fans here would support that.
