The Seattle Kraken

300 days a year is exaggerrating it a bit. There was literally no measurable rainfall for something like 70 days in a row this summer.

290 then... of course it was an exaggeration (Twighlight was set in Washington St for this reason) I live on Van Island... I get it. but it rains a freaking lot out here

Do you live on the west side of the island?

I will concede that from October to April it rains quite frequently. But from May to September you will not encounter a more glorious climate anywhere.

East side of the island. May/June can sometimes be a coin flip. Regardless Easter kicks off my camping season. And I agree, especially to the rest of Canada... don't know what they're missing

Kraken is my favorite!
Mean mythical monster...
And I’m sure that could make a pretty cool logo too.

The problem with Seals is that there was already the Golden Seals... not original?

And that is interesting about the Rainers... that would be cool a team name that means something!

That was the only name that stood out to me as one I liked from that list.

The potential ownership group of a potential NHL team in Seattle has registered 13 team names.

The 13 names are the Cougars, Eagles, Emeralds, Evergreens, Firebirds, Kraken, Rainiers, Renegades, Sea Lions, Seals, Sockeyes, Totems and Whales.

Can't see: Cougars (Prince George Cougars will claim copyright - same as the London Knights did with Vegas); Firebirds (Flint Firebirds of the OHL will do the same as PG); Seals (California Golden Seals probably still own the copyright); Kraken, Rainers, Totems & Whales (don't flow).

That leaves: Eagles, Emeralds, Evergreens, Renegades, Sea Lions, Seals, & Sockeyes. Of all of those, I like the Renegades the best - they could have a really cool logo and their marketing could go thru the roof.

Nostalgia would be Rainers, Pilots, SuperSonics.

Reign ( aside from someone else using the name ) is pretty cool. Has quite a bit of leeway in a logo .
Thunderbirds is also pretty cool except ^

Metropolitans was mentioned . Has pretty cool history . They could raise the 1917-18 Stanley Cup banner on opening night.

Seattle (Space) Needledicks.

I don't care what there name is, but I look forward to their neon lime green jerseys!

[GoNucks]

Seattle Stealth

Seattle Sting

Seattle Sonics

If the Reign wasn't already LA's AHL affiliate's name, it'd be top of my list.

The Rainiers would be awesome. I'm a pretty big geology geek, and the idea of the team being named for the tallest peak in the lower 48 is awesome to me. Plus they could have a sweet logo close to the Colorado Rockies (which yes, I really do like, even though I've heard people think it's a little boring).
