lmao yeah what could possibly make everyone want to poo poo on "the creator"

Normally when a Southern businessman goes to Vegas to pay a lot of money to get poo poo on, it involves backpage hookers and a lot of mess.

Desert Knights sounds like a high-school sports team name

Predators is a pretty dumb name now that I think about it.

preds own, it's named after a sabretooth fossil they found in Nashville and it won in a fan vote. the other choices were Fury, Attack, and Ice Tigers. ice tigers would have owned but the other two would have been XFL level.

also it flows really well in their goal song which is inarguably the best goal song in the league

Impossible. This is the best goal song.

It's not but keep dreaming of that thought like everyone else that isn't in vegas
I've been dreaming of a hockey team here since 2007. I remember looking at all the non-stop flights we had with big NHL cities, and how many Canadian tourists I've befriended here, and wondered why we were courting the NBA with that All-Star Game at the Thomas & Mack that year in a desperate bid for David Stern's recognition, and totally ignoring the NHL. I've put up with jokes, I've put up with angry Canadians who think the NHL is their God-given right and that every city that doesn't get annual snowfall should go screw. I've watched them bitch that they should have more teams, and then they got the Jets and bitched some more.

And I still think this team is going to be a mess in it's first couple seasons. THE CREATOR appears to be too busy being a visible fanboy for various things to wear his serious owner shoes (like he's such a fanboy for a non-hockey team that he kept pushing to name the team after them), and I've actually met Maloofs and know what they're like. And don't tell me "well they own like 20% that's it" because they've owned 2% of the Palms for the past five years, and even with only 2% they managed to not only keep their position of running the property, but they managed to sink it even further irrelevancy to the point that the guys who actually owned it have sold it pending state approvals for 25% less than they paid in the bad old days of 2010 when Vegas was an economic disaster zone.

I will be there for the first Sharks game with my teal on, but I think it'll be a rough start even if it's ultimately successful.

Vegas is a bad city, financial services people are bad people, the team is required to be made of bad players and bad contracts, the name is probably going to be bad, and they call the owner The Creator.

I'm gonna root for this team hard, but only because I love the pain. I know full well the team is gonna blow chunks right out of the gate, but I dunno. Maybe the Isles and earlier Rangers years of fandom have conditioned me.

On the other hand, how about someone just takes half the money I was gonna spend on tickets while I'm in Vegas, take me out back, kick me in the nuts, and call it a day?
