[VanIslander]

Apparently that's just a myth

Oh, I hope salsa man is right!

Double entendre:

 

[Yggdrasil]

cant be knights because theres la "kings"

so its gotta be a way different name to make it really seperate it's own name from the others.

What....

 

[VanIslander]

What....

1 in 5 U.S. residents speak a foreign language at home.

I guess Knights and Kings - which sound very different - look similar because they share some letters, and so may be confusing?

 

[HanSolo]

I don't think it has anything to do with that. I think it's more about the fact that Knights are typically servants to Kings.

But obviously that was never a consideration at any point for Foley and co.

 

[sparkychewbarky]

Anybody going for some pints after the event?

More than likely I'll be eating at Bruxie while down there. I enjoy that place so much.

yea that was my point and i would not name it knights of any way.

 

[702]

Foley hasn't made any sense other than his crappie Army background when it comes to the naming. Hasn't wavered on any of it at any point. Kept slamming it down the new fan base throats.

I'm over that part. Just want it to be over and buy some gear.

 

[HanSolo]

Are these the colors? (Via SinBinVegas)

 

[jwhouk]

I would laugh SO hard if the name turned out to be...

Las Vegas Knights.

Just "Knights".

 

[kurt]

How on earth has nothing leaked yet?

 

[702]

Pretty sure those will be the colors. There's another email that went out today. Or twitter. Can't remember.

 

[AIexisLafreniereNYR]

Excited for you guys!!!

 

[VanIslander]

Las Vegas Knights.

yeah...

Though certainly most will refer to them as such regardless of the "Mighty Ducks" attempt to pimp the franchise initially with an adjective.

 

[KCC]

Are these the colors? (Via SinBinVegas)

I'd assume so. I think everyone knows it'll probably be something a long the lines of that. At least common sense is it will be. I'd love to be surprised though with a name and logo no one sees coming and it's super bad ass.

 

[VanIslander]

Those colors are so...

 

[Not So Mighty]

How on earth has nothing leaked yet?

This is what amazes me. I thought for sure something was going to leak weeks before the reveal date.

 

[kurt]

Those colors are so...

Very Ducks-meets-Coyotes, yeah. To be fair, it's pretty hard to be totally original and still look good though. The Ducks learned that lesson.

Is it my eyes, or does that look a little more "bronze"/"copper" than "gold"?

Can't wait to see the reveal, am happy for the residents of Las Vegas to get their first major league professional sports team.

 

[GKG18]

Crap. Can't be there. I may send a proxy just to get my hands on that gear.....

 

[tp71]

Those colors are so...

Reminds me more of the Wilkes Barre Penguins jerseys:

 

[VanIslander]

I dunno. The jersey looked pretty awesome when Paul Kariya was wearing it!

Maybe they haven't decided yet.

 

[HanSolo]

I still think Kariya is *****.

Let's try...
