I was curious of the team name we might see for when a team relocates to southern Ontario and since we have more than a few hockey fans as evidenced by the playoffs thread, I figured I'd pose the question.

I always kind of wished the Leafs were called the Polar Bears or something like that just because I think a polar bear would look great in a Leafs jersey. Maybe we could see the North York Polar Bears although I'm sure some may find that too silly. Hamilton has long been a favourite and I saw the Hamilton Ironmen somewhere which sounds good. Kitchener and Waterloo were rumoured to be preferred locales of Balsillie as well, but no names spring to mind for them. Any others?
