I'm pretty indifferent to when teams that re-locate keep the name or look. I don't think it's stealing someone else's look, after all it's technically the same team. For me I think it comes down two these factors:
1. Does the name make any sense in the new locations: e.g. Coyotes probably can make sense in Utah (not that I'm advocating for it). Nordiques wouldn't have made sense in Colorado.
2. Is the league fully closing the door on the old market - if not, I like keeping the option to re-introduce the team name back to the market if the NHL ever returns (again not that it has to go that way)
