One of many who is too boring; thinks that there should be rules regarding grammar in custom user titles, and also makes moderators wonder if there is a charachter limit here. I mean come on- you would think that would be a limitation in the software
The only downside I can see to the dalmation thing is that the Columbia Inferno use a dalmation also. Then again, the team's name and logo are take-offs from one team, why not have the mascot be a take-off from another?
I don't mind the dragon idea, but I'm thinking a dog like Harvey, except a puppy.
Sorry, Firefly, but I was initially dismissive of this puppy idea but, on further reflection, I think it may actually be in the right direction. In a market trying to establish itself, you simply can't go wrong with a "kid friendly" mascot. Harvey in Calgary is FANTASTIC with the kids who almost always have no reservations in approaching him and engaging. In the QC, there might well be significant market growth value in having a mascot equally approachable to children. Happy kids means happy parents. Happy parents mean repeat business. Repeat business means market growth.
Get a dog.

The good thing about Oiler Blue Kool-aid is the drink boxes come with their own straws for fans to grasp at.
A puppy are you kidding me?
This is HOCKEY people not kids t-ball.
Kids love dragons (I know I have 4 )
New Jersey has a Devil and kids love him.
I put up with 11 years of a lame duck
please lets go with something a little tougher this time!
besides more kids are bitten by dogs every year then dragons.
