    In other hockey news, two used-to-be-rival high school teams have decided to consolidate. Eveleth-Gilbert and Virginia will then be known as the Rock Ridge Wolverines.

    Yes, the Blazing Saddles references began instantly.
    That would be my pick as well.

          I would change that game too, just to stick it to Frank Anzalone.

One of those games that leaves you questioning God.

(Then again, looking over the PWR standings and the brackets, NMU might have had to face North Dakota. I don't think they would have been high enough to get to Albany and take on UNH).

                    Add Gronk and Patrick Kane, and turn it into a father/son movie. John Daly will play the aging mentor.

                    I feel like the up and coming generation has not yet discovered its Great Party Animal / Sex Machine Athlete.

                      For me, it depends. For NMU, I'd love it if we could flip the loss to St. Cloud in the NCAAs. That was St. Cloud's first tourney win. For Detroit, the 2009 Cup Final game where Lilja committed a delay of game penalty, costing the Red Wings the game. The Wings would eventually lose the series to Pittsburgh.

                        I'm.... not thrilled. Can still win me over with a kick a** logo though.

                          Guh. Because the Raptors isn't a cautionary tale.

                          There are so many wonderful Seattle names.

                          The logo is going to be a 12-year old boy's idea of cool.

                            It's the NHL Jets situation all over again. True North adamantly refused to use the Jets name, but public demand was so much locally (and throughout the hockey community) that they reluctantly went with Jets.

                            I really want one of the NHL Moose jerseys that are likely in a closet of the Bell MTS Place basement. Copper and forest green would have been an amazing color scheme for the the NHL. And to top it off with the "angry moose" logo?

                            Ugh.

                              I'm hoping we're getting out of the hi-octane, busy, EXTEEEEEEEEEEEEEME derp cycle and going into a clean, simple cycle. There have been a few good signs: the Indians' simple C is excellent. In the NHL the dumbas-sery of the last 20 years looks cheap now and should be abating: the Ducks, Wild, Blue Jackets, and Panthers are all hideous lessons. The Coyotes showed a representational, non-symbolic logo can still be lovely (the Orioles and Cardinals also prove this), but that was a perfect storm and their alt logo is a war crime.

                              The Metropolitans logo was, well, really strange:



                              I doubt anybody has the stones to bring that off; you'd have to fight the morons every day.

                              These would each have been wonderful, but we can't have nice things:



                              If it must be the adolescent Kraken, at least make it this logo, which is clever:




                              or this, which is unobjectionable:



                              and not this one, which will make me root for Rainier to blow the city away:
