No Bronze Knights?

 

[Smiley90]

This sounds like a name a Minor Hockey team would use if they had yellow jerseys for the year.

It just reminds me of the Golden Seals

Are they seriously unable to pick anything original?

Red Hawks - Red Wings/Blackhawks
Golden Knights - Golden Seals/Knights

 

[Quick]

Foley's really set on that Knights name.

Like, stop trying to make Knights happen.

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

Las Vegas Knight Lifes

 

[RC]

Las Vegas Ace's would've been the perfect name. It's a shame they can't use anything gambling related.

Or just call them the White Knights. The Simpers favourite hockey team.

 

[RedRum]

Speaking of new/old posters, I remember kingwhatever30 being the saltiest Ranger fan. Where'd he go?

I hope RedRum comes back. Otherwise it's just Meta posting a lot and me being occasionally pissy/fiesty during certain games.

We need moar.

I'm here man. I'm just waiting for the goddamn season to start already while trying to stay away from the optimism and heartbreak of off-season moves(or lack thereof).

well, there's the problem that there is already a sports team using the Aces name within Nevada

and that's the Reno Aces

 

[PillarEN]

Screw it.

HC Las Vegas. Who cares. Jerseys will be covered in ads soon anyways so the European name won't even seem out of place.

 

[Smiley90]

I'm partial to "Rivers" if only because it covers both geography (Hoover Dam) and gambling (poker)

 

[DopeyFish]

So it seems like the likely name is Desert Knights

So what? The New York Giants and the New York Giants played in the same city for 30+ years

You never know with how protective teams are with copyrights, especially in professional sports.

 

[zroid]

This Jays game is giving me a headache. I've never seen so many bullshit seeing eye ground balls in my life.

 

[bonesmccoy]

I thought it went by sport.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

I'm cool with that.

 

[imBask]

Nothing says hockey like having the word Desert in your team name

 

[Quick]

Alex Ponikarovsk signed with HC Kunlun Red Star.

 

[FUBAR McDangles]

Got bored and looked up leading active scorers from a few drafts.

95 - Iginla
96 - Cullen
97 - Thornton
98 - Tanguay
99 - H Sedin
00 - Gaborik
01 - Spezza (Pominville in 2nd lol wut)
02 - Nash
03 - E. Staal
04 - Ovechkin
05 - Crosby by 250 points
06 - Backstrom
07 - Kane by 215
08 - Stamkos beating Karlsson by 180
09 - Tavares by 100
10 - Seguin
11 - Landeskog
12 - Galchenyuk
13 - Monahan
14 - Ekblad
15 - Eichel

Biggest surprise IMO is Colorado having 3 players on that list. Duchene and Mack are both in 2nd for their years as well, Mack only trails by 6 points.

[megachao24]

Vegas has trademarked 3 names now

Golden Knights ,Silver Knights and Desert Knights

I like Golden Knights

They really want that Knights name...

Fuck it, just call them the Las Vegas Dongs and call it a day.

 

[bonesmccoy]

Huh, I ought to hate the name 'Golden Knights' but ... it kind of works???

 

[ElephantShell]

Las Vegas Knight Riders. The Hoff is the mascot.

 

[Smiley90]

Golden Seals
Golden Showers

Las Vegas Knight Riders. The Hoff is the mascot.

Yo that would be sick

 

[zroid]

Justice for all those trash ground ball hits early in the game

 

[MultiJhonny]

Do we wanna do a GAF fantasy hockey league?

I can set that shit up if there is enough interest.

Las Vegas Scorpions?

 

[zroid]

Las Vegas Snipers

military AND hockey theme!

 

[DopeyFish]

I prefer Valkyrie

 

[righthandmouse]

It's gonna be something really lame. Like Vegas sea dogs.
Omg another team actually took that name.
Sea muffins.

 

[Silver Arrows]

So I am fairly certain that I am being harassed and targeted by elements of the anti-GAF sub on Reddit that shall not be named.

 

[DopeyFish]

We should call them the Silver Arrows

 

[ElephantShell]

It doesn't really matter which _________ Knights name they go with, colloquially they will most likely just be known as the Knights.

Which is why I'm glad they don't seem to be going with a __________ Hawks name. One league does not need two Hawks.

 

[Yawnier]

I thought that sub got banned from reddit?

 

[Silver Arrows]

We should call them the Silver Arrows

Call them the Saubers.

 

[Smiley90]

Call them the Saubers.

Like the F1 team?

 

[Silver Arrows]

I thought that sub got banned from reddit?

Yes, but it lives on in spirit and in the darkest corners of the web.

Essentially, yesterday I made a post in one of the more hotly contested threads after a pretty obvious troll came out of a 10 month freeze and promptly went for the account kamikaze, and got banned for it. I mentioned it was pretty obvious that it was from a user for the sub that shall not be named.

So I log into my PSN account and I realize that someone named 'lolNeoGaf' had sent me a message on PSN. It's somewhat easy to find me since my ID is on my profile and my description does say that I am Silver Arrows here. The message was essentially 'lol not only reddit hates GAF' or something other.

I have gotten these messages before, including one that was essentially a laundry list of shit some prominent members did that was easily disputed. Every time I have deleted, blocked and reported them to PSN, but I know they will probably attack with another account when I make another pointing out the Reddit angle.

 

[righthandmouse]

Their state animal is a desert big horned sheep. That's not really intimidating.

 

[Silver Arrows]

Like the F1 team?

Yeah, more or less referring to the 80's variant which ran the prototype C8's and C11's, even had a young Michael Schumacher driving for them.

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

Las Vegas Twerkers

 

[MultiJhonny]

Las Vegas Twerkers

I like this one

 

[righthandmouse]

Las Vegas Twerkers

What would their logo be? Buttcheeks?

it would be a gif of buttcheeks

Well damn

I wouldn't worry about it tho. They're trying to get a rise out of you.

Still, you never know when those fucks are going to dox and make my life hell.
