Countdown is on! I'm weirdly excited about this but maybe I'm just stoked for not depressing hockey news.

 

[TheDestructiveSquirrel]

Surprised the name hasn't leaked yet, everything in hockey leaks

its gotta be kraken. Even the new jersey devils twitter hinted at it.

 

[Tom Nook]

Excited.

Probably a team name after the ocean or boats.

Cool to see if the name is after Seatle's history of Grunge Rock music.

 

[Reckheim]

Seattle Grunge would be kind of kool tbh.

like st. louis Blues

 

[mhayes86]

I chuckled when I saw mention of "Starpucks".

Would the logo be a young white guy in a lumber jacket?

Because that would be awesome

 

[megachao24]

Here's the YouTube stream. Don't know where the others are as of now.

 

[Tom Nook]

Team YES!

Name it after Daniel Bryan.

 

[Richiek]

No sound though

 

[NihonTiger]

Anyone catch that they said it's a familiar name in the intro video?

 

[Tom Nook]

Seattle Kraken

 

[NihonTiger]

[APerfectOrganism]

[Wingfan19]

Wow, they went with Kraken!?

Shocked they did it since fans are gonna use Krack-heads as a fan name.

 

[mreddie]

Great logo too.

 

[NihonTiger]

 

[Tom Nook]

 

[thebeeks]

I'm shocked the Vegas and now Seattle logos are on point.

I will never not see the Chicago White Sox logo when I see it though :(

 

[BringBackSonics]

How close is "Totems" to crossing the cultural appropriation line?

Click to shrink...

It's pretty close. But we do have indigenous tribes locally that carve totems, but that's not going matter now.

 

[Slack Attack]

Wow that's an awesome team name and logo.

 

[Newlib]

The logo is suspiciously close to looking like an armless Trogdor. Just missing the consummate v's.

 

[Theiea]

That logo is fuckin sick.

 

[spookyduzt]

 

[Wingfan19]

So what's gonna happen when Seattle/Detroit meet up and someone throws an octopus on the ice? Worlds colliding!

 

[jml]

I really like that they went with something unique like Kraken, that's a fun as hell team name

[Violence Jack]

Hooray! I'm going to have another NHL team to root for soon!

Now, Adam Silver..... SAVE OUR SONICS

 

[shrapnelmagnet]

[Poppy]

[Deleted member 13496]

That logo and colours is fucking sick.

 

[nihilence]

Nice nice. I can get behind that.

 

[Marvie]

Garbage ass name and a garbage ass logo.

 

[Freddy=Legend]

Jersey are clean as hell. Really dig them. Hope they start every home game with the "Release the Kraken" clip from Clash of the Titans.

 

[megachao24]

Kraken is blah. Logo and colors are cool at least, I guess.
