Owner's company name has Knights in it.

Yes, his company name is Black Knights as homage to Army Black Knights.  So Black Knights makes sense in that regard plus Vegas has some military connections.  But if its not Black Knights, then "Knights" makes little sense.  I wonder why Black Knights was rejected...unless the Army itself had an issue with its use.

  • This really pisses me off.  Teams like the Blues, Habs, and Bruins all hit a slight speed bump and they have no hesitation whatsoever in replacing the coach.  The Jets suck year-in and year-out and th

  • What an idiot.  I have no patience for things like that.  Should be zero tolerance, 100-game ban for first offence, lifetime for second.  That's not an accident, that's not something that just happens

Yeah...I dont mind that I guess.  if it was just "Knights" as a play on the "Nights" but giving it a clunky second word sort of removes the double meaning.  I guess people would call them the Snites without the first word.  That will be their nick name, the S'nites.

Its a shame the NHL wouldnt allow any play on gambling for the name since that's Vegas' major claim to fame.  Las Vegas Mobsters? lol

Personally I really don't care what they call the team. With that said tho... if it was me and I was starting a team in the nhl... and I was in a 2 worded city... Las Vegas Los Angeles San Francisco etc... 

The last name of my team would not be 2 worded. It's just a little 2 wordy for my liking. Knights works. Las Vegas Knights. Sounds good. Why go with the 2 worded last name when you are a 2 worded city. Just sounds so stupid
