You love to see it.

Excited for the next four teams! MSP specifically can lend itself to some really good looks and you have a ton of skill in crafting good-looking and locally-appropriate identities.

You think Texas fans are Bad, wait until Boston begins play.

Woo let's go Boston!
Team name ideas:
Boston:
Dragons: Not an obvious link but the Green Dragon Inn is where Paul Revere's Famous Midnight ride began.
Frigates: The USS Constitution is the oldest active US Naval Vessel still in service.
Montreal
Templars: Alright so Montreal has a big catholic population, with over 50% being Roman Catholic. They also happen to be home to Ubisoft..why not cross the two with Templars?
Harfangs: The Snow Owl is the Provincal Bird of Quebec
Minnesota
I really like Burmy's Northern Lights suggestion
Jottun: Norse Giants, why not try to appeal the Scandinivian crowd and also try to grab some of the recent Norse trend (AC Valhalla, Vikings, God of War)
Washington
Centurions: DC has this wonderful Greco-Roman look, why not try to play off that?
Warhorses: DC has a ton of statues with warhorse statues with the nation's leaders of the past than them.

Second Boston Frigates
Montreal Voyaguers: Bit cliche, but it works.
Washington Solons: Solon was a Greek senator.
Minnesota Pioneers: Named after the people who settled on the Minnesotan plains in the 1800s.

Third Boston Frigates
Second Montreal Templars
Washington Statesmen (self-explanatory)
Minnesota Northern Lights (you can see the Aurora Borealis from Northern Minnesota. In addition to the AMAZING visual identity, it would be fitting as the team is going to light the way for further expansion in the Northern states)

Boston Crafters. We're set in 2026, and there are a plethora of craft breweries. This can be something that ties to the city while being more modern.

Montreal Dragonnes. I don't know French, nor the city of Montreal, but Dragons/Dragonnes allow the use of a creature that is pronounced the same in French and English.

Washington Commanders. Simply home of the highest levels of the US Military with the Pentagon, and the president is also the Commander-in-Chief.

Minnesota Walleye. We all know the state bird is the common loon, but the state fish (which would be in those many, many lakes) is the Walleye.

Minnesota Axemen or Nordmenn
Montreal Citadelles or Imperials
Washington Brigadiers or Strikers
Boston Knight Riders
