I feel as though with the correct unis and even a revamped logo (correct direction of spelling ?) it would be a nice nod to the past to the first ?? team to win Lord Stanley's Cup. Moving on to topic... ?????? Seattle does have a long hockey history and it would be cool to see them revamp a classic name, like Ottawa did with the Senators Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has happened, such as Winnipeg Jets, but in general, management tend to look for newer and catchier stuff rather than traditional re-intros. When the NBA were introducing a new team to Toronto, I sent in my application with logos and slogans saying "Bring back the HUSKIES" which were actually their pro team way back in the golden era. Suffice to say, RAPTORS made it, which I don't understand as I've never come across a velociraptor in T-Dot. Unlike Vancouver who chose The GRIZZLIES which made absolute sense. Unfortunately they folded and moved to the US. Should the NORDIQUES ever come back, I hope they stay true to the name and logo Agreed. Anything other than nordiques in quebec city is just wrong. I still LOL about the raptors thing. I remember when they named it all of us in 6th grade at the time were cheering and had our mommies buy us all kinds of teal and purple crap. I guess because Jurassic Park was so fresh in our minds? I'd be all for renaming to the huskies, now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTH Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Totems? Oh man the PC crowd will be crying that's exploitation of Native Americans... Meanwhile Native Americans are some of the most kick ass people in history. Would be cool name. Just could be a headache for the owners and all. They'll go something safer with no chance of any push back on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Canucks logo is based on Haida design and no one has bat an eye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same thing as the UBC Thunderbirds, it uses Native art as the logo. Most people over here in Vancouver wouldn't care and actually appreciate the art, it's just that Seattle "Totems" is such an awful name. Just name it the Seattle "Hipsters" and call it day already.

MTH Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Hipsters is nice. I have to work in Philly's hipster mecca. Wish I could hit them with hockey sticks daily. Although they are about the same shape as a hockey stick with the skin tight pants and t-shirts. Bro - shave! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
