    Pretty funny. Apparently a random guy in Seattle registered seattlekraken.com in 2017. Talk about getting ahead of the game

    A little too try-hard/tacky but still a funny thought.

    I think this is another one better suited to a peewee team. It is clever and relevant, but I think pro teams need a higher level of sophistication than this. Specifically, the name shouldn't reference the sport.

    We wouldn't call them the 'Seattle Sharp-Shooters' or the 'Seattle Slap-Shots' (I hope), and this isn't far behind those.

    Seattle Seamen!

    Kidding aside though, I personally love Seattle Kraken. Especially when the rest of the league will refer to their fan base as Krak Heads!

    Seattle's got a pretty large drug issue, mostly opioids though, so I kinda hope they don't go with The Krakens.

    The NHL Seattle expansion team's plan to announce its nickname has been put off until at least the fall because of trademarking issues, local protests on racial injustice and policing, and the coronavirus pandemic, CEO Tod Leiweke told The Seattle Times on Tuesday.
    Sockeyes appears to be the favourite amounts those that read the Seattle Times -

    In January 2019, The Seattle Times polled its readers on what the Seattle nickname should be, with Sockeyes defeating Totems in the final with more than 140,000 votes cast overall. Metropolitans, Steelheads and Kraken rounded out the top five.

    The Seattle CHAZ in a nod to the newest American state within a state. They could have the Antifa symbol as a shoulder patch.

    Yeah... I wonder it the delay really does have anything to do with Coronavirus or protests. Trademarking though... yes.
    There was an article on theathletic a few months back that some woman who writes "romance" novels had trademarked the name for her hockey players in her novels.
    Apparently she's holding firm on the name, last report.
    I'm sure her lawyers have helped her set a price on it... and there's probably some hardball/negotiations in play.
    I *suspect*... THAT issue is the delay.
    If they can't settle it... it's probably going to be KRAKEN.
