The Las Vegas Nighthawks, the Las Vegas Desert Hawks, or the Las Vegas Red Hawks.
Which one do you prefer? Because there's a good chance it's going to be one of those three.
According to Steve Carp of the Las Vegas Review-Journal, Bill Foley, owner of Vegas' expansion NHL franchise, confirmed a Sportslogos.net report Thursday night that the club is close to finalizing its team name, narrowing the choices down to those three and another two.
Bill Foley confirms Las Vegas Nighthawks, Desert Hawks & Red Hawks all owned by his company along with 2 others that are being processed.

Foley wouldn't divulge the other two names, Carp added.
An announcement is expected in the very near future.
