Team Branding Thread (Logo, Colors, Uniforms, etc.)

[The Shovel Penguin]

My first vote is Sockeyes. But I'm fine with Kraken too.

 

[Jets 31]

I posted this in the main thread , if they want a tie to Starbucks how about the Seattle Sirens , that's what Starbucks logo is , a Siren .

 

[Brodie]

Kraken is a name that screams "I listen to Nickelback"

 

[Craig Button]

Seattle Nicklebacks

 

[superdeluxe]

I went with Totems, if its not going to be the Kraken.

Edit: I'd be all about for the Thunderbirds as well if the WHL team would be willing to go back to the 'Breakers'

Sports fans do not want a tie in with Starbucks.

 

[Craig Button]

Seattle Washingtons

 

[superdeluxe]

We ran a very extensive fan vote, tournament style with 32 teams. The final four was Totems, Thunderbirds, Steelheads and Sockeyes. So basically, history vs Fish.

Why ? Starbucks is a very big thing to come out of Seattle , first thing that i think of when talking about Seattle . That and grunge music .

 

[CanadaIsIrrelevant]

Seattle Wonders
Seattle Marmots (state animal)
Seattle Steelheads (fish) Although there’s a team named Mississauga Steelheads in OHL.
Seattle Mammoths (state fossil)
Seattle Dragonflies (state insect)
Seattle Orcas (state marine mammal)

That’s like asking why the Jets didn’t go with the Winnipeg Winters

 

[EchoesoftheEighties]

I still like the Thunderbirds name the best

 

[JFA87-66-99]

Seattle Spartans or maybe Pelegrins

 

[gstommylee]

Water related mascot. Oh and btw Krakens is already out of the running. Since idaho and a canadain team are steelheads. Only other water related name is the Sockeyes.

 

[Esko6]

How about just Seattle. No name, just Seattle.

I would pick Emeralds, Totems would be nice too but in this political atmosphere someone will get offended.

 

[ziggyjoe212]

I have no affiliation with Seattle so I'm speaking as an outsider. But I just googled "sockeye" to learn what it is, and have to say that naming a team after salmon is beyond stupid. And this is coming from a fan of a team named after a penguin.

I think any of the other names on this list are good.

Please don't name your team an adverb or an article of clothing.

So lets not have a team name cause for some reason its all stupid.... There is nothing wrong with naming it a fish. Sockeyes happens to be a great hockey name so is steelheads.

People are going to get offended regardless of what the darn name will be.

 

[Neill99]

Evergreens.

 

[Nordiques1979]

Krakens sounds good to me.

 

[gstommylee]

Krakens sounds good to me.

Krakens is already been ruled out.

 

[Headshot77]

I am a fan of the Seattle Serpents.

I think Penguins is quite a bit stupider fwiw

What do people think about the Seattle Admirals?
