Sports team owners are the worst. That being said, dessert knights is at least interesting/not an animal so they've got that going for them Also gently caress you autocorrect I'm leaving it like that.

It costs next to nothing to register a domain name. I figure some IT department has been tasked with buying up every possibility from a list of a thousand so the team doesn't get scooped when it does settle on one it wants to go with. The last thing they want is to decide on "Desert Knights" but be forced to pay some pasty kid from Wisconsin $50,000 for the URL. They'll be teamname.nhl.com in the end anyways.

Desert Knights is cool and good and I hope that's it (only because just plain "Knights" is apparently a no-go)

How about Las Vegas Desert Nights and just have the logo be some stylized cartoon 50's crescent moon with some stars for good measure.

Among the other possibilities we've heard, the Las Vegas Desert Knights is the best one by a country mile, but the NHL shutting down anything gambling related like the Aces immediately off the bat is still super frustrating.
