The one thing I don't like about singular team names is that it causes awkwardness when you're talking about individual players. Not that it's a major thing, but its linguistically convenient (unlike that phrase) to be able to say "Thornton was a Bruin, then he was traded, and he's been a Shark ever since". Say the same thing about a guy like Kurtis Foster and the language gets pretty tortured. "Kurtis Foster was a Wild..er...he played for the Wild, then signed as a free agent to become a Ligh..um..he joined the MLB Jerseys." Not sure where your going there man, you just totally contradicted yourself. Adding an "S" doesn't always fit and is added with error realized later on, and a name in singular represents everything as a whole if it works with in the context of the word. When you answer a question like what hockey team do you like.. If you respond I'm a Ranger, thats used in the plural context as far as thought goes. Just a poor choice in name if you want to be technical about shit. I'm a "canuck/canadien" is actually plural because if you gave the answer to a Q? like who's your favorite team in the NHL and you responded "I'm a Canuck" that would be an plural answer since you are not the only fan and your answer meant "I'M A CANUCK" as in you are from a group of people that like the Tampa Bay Lightning Jerseys. Like I said it's hard to explain but what you said makes no sense logically. I hope they bring back the whalers, I think from just a come back of the franchise there would generate enough revenue to make it worthwhile for a few years at the least. It's a shame a team like the whalers had to bow out only to have their team go to some crap city that knows nothing of winter and make a finals appearance and then win a cup. Wrong on so many levels. I'm not just trying to be mean to newer franchises either but sorry, Cheap MLB Jerseys, and Phoenix need to go back to being their original franchises, throw in Colorado for good measure, only reason anyone there took interest was because of the Patrick Roy "TRADE" :P j/k they can stay but bring back Quebec anyways. It's better for man kind. Especially in theNHLJerseys and hockey in general. The only sport where this concept would work is in soccer, ie. Chicago Fire, Toronto Blizzard. However, the use of plural names just sounds bushleague. In hockey, a player is a Canuck, a Canadien, a Ranger, or an Islander. Not a Wild(worst name ever), not a Lightening(use Bolts instead), and not an Avalanche(at least they're called the Avs). Let's be more respectable. The difference between the name Whale and a singular like Lightning or Moose is that those names are already plural. Lightning or Moose can refer to one bolt ofVancouver Canucks Jerseys and individual moose or many. They ARE plural names. The plural of moose is moose. The plural of lightning is lightning. Noone refers to a group of whales as whale. It's flat out wrong. This is a silly gimmick and if I was a fan of the team I'd be annoyed that our team name is going to make people scratch their heads. It must be how Minnesota Wild fans feel.
