They don't have a name, a logo or even a team, but Seattle has plenty of hockey fans. And those fans have ideas.
With the National Hockey League presumably on its way to Seattle, fans have been eager for months to find out the potential name and logo.
After buying 25,000 season ticket deposits in two hours on March 1, fans are now resorting to their own creativity to keep them busy while they wait for official announcements.
Check out these images making the rounds on Twitter. The logos and concepts were posted by Sparky Chewbarky Athletics.
