New NHL Las Vegas Expansion Team Will Announce Name And Colors
GM George McPhee was joined by the team’s owner, Bill Foley, at the event to answer a series of questions about the NHL's newest club.
The pair had barely settled into their seats when the inevitable first question was fired in their direction.
"When will the team's nickname be announced?" a fan asked.
"I knew that one was coming!" Foley said. "But we're shooting for November 18 here at Toshiba Plaza. It's not finalized. We're working with the arena on the date.
"We're tinkering with the final colors. We really want it to pop when you see them on our jerseys. But the logo's been picked. The name's been picked. I think George knows the name."
McPhee admitted he knew the name, but said as he hadn't told his own wife and kids, he wasn't about to give the game away now.
