The Pacific North West has been deprived of a good team for way too long with. I would put a team in Vancouver. With teams like the Whalers and the Riot being the closest teams that poor city has had nothing to truly cheer for throughout its history.

The idea being the team is to honour the great history of the city. They will play out of an outdoor rink located in the middle of beautiful Stanley Park (don't ask how this works). This is a great center point for everyone in the city to easily get to. The team shall be named the Vancouver Totems. To distinguish themselves from every other team in that area they will stray away from using blue as the may colour and instead choose a bright yellow with powder blue trim. Their lovable mascot shall be a totem pole. To avoid any conflict between interested parties there shall be 198 different mascots, one representing each native band in the area.
