Utah Elks - State animal of Utah, has an old school feel that I like

San Antonio Cascarones - Cascarones are hallowed out eggshells with confetti or toys inside. They are associated with the Fiesta celebrations on the River Walk in San Antonio and I think "Cascarones" has a cool sound

San Diego Torpedoes - Keeping with the naval theme, a different yet intimidating name

Seattle Sound - Seattle is part of Pugit Sound and it could be Grunge themed

Toronto Big Red - Only Canadian team in the league, red and Canada just go together

Salt Lake City Cougars - Love a cougar identity, and it sounds good with Salt Lake
San Antonio Bats - Bats are underused in sports
San Diego Wave - Yea yea
Seattle Stars - Little space reference with the Space needle
St. Louis Riverhawks - Mississippi runs right through town and its a cool name
Toronto Metros - Had no ideas for Toronto

No need to be passive-aggressive, it was only for the fact that they are NORTH OF THE AMERICAN BORDER

SLC- North Shore Monsters- The North Shore Monster is supposedly in the great salt lake.
San Antonio Conquistadors
Second: San Diego Pandas
Seattle Summit- As a Washington native, a mountain theme would be super cool.
St Louis Clydesdales- A budweiser brewery is in St Louis, and I think a horse theme would be neat.
Toronto Poutine Eaters- Unique and obscure

Poutine Eaters? So... You'd be cool with Boston Cream Donuts? Or New York Pizza? How about Naples Fettuccine?
