LV Blackbirds sounds way better than Nighthawks, and you avoid playing second fiddle to Chicago for the foreseeable future.

Am I the only one who thought that 'Red Hawks' is the offspring of an affair between the Red Wings and Blackhawks?

This can't happen in a league that already has Red Wings and Black Hawks.

What about the Las Vegas Diamondbacks? As someone who lives in the Mojave desert, there's no shortage of rattlers. Plus I can see the arena filled with fans rattling handheld rattlers.

I might suggest Merlins - a falcon native to Nevada, that also has the magic connotation.

Las Vegas Aliens in honour of their rich history of bizzare military and UFO sightings, crazy conspiracy theorists, and freemen of the land.

It's a shame if they don't come up with something more unique than that. I don't mind the idea of desert animal based name instead of a gambling theme, but we don't need another hawk team.

I just hope they pick a name soon so that people stop coming up with the exact same insipid gambling-related joke names in every single thread.

.600 winning percentage as an expansion team? Methinks they would take that in a heartbeat.
