The
Central Hockey League's newest franchise announced today that they will
be known as the Brampton Beast. After an extensive Name Your Team
contest that saw roughly 2,000 unique entries, and over 3,000 different
people submitting votes, the Beast was selected by the people of
Brampton.
"We
are very excited to have Brampton in the Central Hockey League and to
see how they engaged their fan base with such a successful contest,"
said Duane Lewis, Central Hockey League Commissioner. "The Beast is a
great selection for a name and will be one the fans can really embrace
as a powerful, unique brand."
The
name comes from a group of finalists selected that included Bandits,
Blizzard, Vipers and North Stars but the Beast had overwhelming support
and finished the contest with the most votes.
The
team will be hosting an official team launch at their home, the
Powerade Centre, in the coming weeks to introduce their team colors and
logo.
