More potential names which are about as exciting as you'd expect:

Las Vegas Desert Knights
Las Vegas Golden Knights
Las Vegas Silver Knights
Las Vegas Sand Knights

From this article: http://deadspin.com/the-las-vegas-nhl-team-is-going-to-choose-some-bland-as-1785898153

... sand knights?

Half of me believes the owner is just trolling now and is using this all as a smokescreen for the perfectly reasonable name he secretly has waiting in the wings. The other half of me is resigned to having the fucking Sand Knights in my division.

I actually like Desert Knights, if we have to stick with the Knights idea. I wish they'd drop it, though.

NA

I think it's the best of a bunch of bad options, if they're really determined to go in that direction.

I kind of like Sand Knights. It's ridiculous, but it makes me think of Dune, and I like Dune.

I'm still holding out hope for Neon Knights tbh

If they have a boring name they should at least go for neon colours. :(

I want them to have a cool jersey so bad, because I would definitely spend money on a Las Vegas hockey shirt just for the novelty. But I think I saw they're going with silver and black so it's probably going to be a boring kings knockoff.

Unless you've seen something fairly recently it seems like Foley is open to other color schemes, however begrudgingly: http://www.reviewjournal.com/sports/hockey-vegas/bill-foley-s-frustration-grows-over-lack-name-las-vegas-nhl-team

My pipe dream is them using some kind of sand color with a bright accent like a neon green. I just want a new color scheme in this league. Plus I like the mix of the desert-y vibe mixed with a pop of Vegas pizzaz.
