LET'S GO!!!!!!!! RELEASE THE KRAKEN!!!!!!!

Might as well have named them the Unicorns or the Yeti. The name is of no relevance to this region. Just another panzy-ass move to mollify the vocal minority of classless dolts that inhabit this city.

Which is something they have in common with 21 of the other 31 franchises in the league, 24 of the 32 franchises in the NFL, 16 of the 30 franchises in MLB, and 21 of the 30 franchises in the NBA. There aren't any bears roaming the streets of Boston, penguins waddling on the ice floes of Pittsburgh, sabre-tooth cats hunting prey in Nashville, and Calgary is not on fire.

Here are the team colors and logo: https://t.co/y7oDkYk50j?amp=1

They totally nailed it, the whole thing. The color scheme, the primary logo, the secondary logo, the lettering. I'm going to enjoy wearing that sweater a lot more than I do my Anaheim Ducks sweater.

The logo doesn't do a lot for me. You name the team after this fantastic creature then make the logo an "S" with a red eye? F for creativity.

Did you miss the octopus arm in there? And the S is something they did in homage to the Metropolitans.

There's something else they should have done in homage to the Metropolitans. Name the damned team after them..

I for one can’t wait to throw an aquatic animal into the ice so I say Release the Kraken!! Being from Detroit and throwing out product on to the ice during the playoffs was a great memory for me.

So give the franchise the same name as the New York Mets, and also the same name as one of the NHL divisions? Not to mention it's a name that should only belong to a multi-million populated city, and also it's a boring name.
