The Reason I pick that name is because 1. were in the Blue water area and 2. we are also in st.clair county and the saints would be a good name for the team with blue water in it.
(BLUE WATER SAINTS)

Wear it. I'll be sporting mine on occasion. Not uncommon to see jerseys from old teams around the rink...

I'll definatley look forward to having some hockey back. The level of play won't be nearly as good, but the prospects of many of the players will be much better. Plus, it might be nice to see some local kids make the team every now and then. We've had a lot of local players play in this league or at this level - both in the US and in Canada. As for the name, I prefer a more basic approach. Get rid of the "Ice" this and the "Border" that. How about just naming them something like the Port Huron Hawks or the Blue Water Mariners or something like that? I wouldn't mind seeing the "Flags" name reused, but maybe there's a little bit of overkill there. We've already had the original IHL Flags, the UHL Flags and all of the PHMHA travel teams are the Flags; I guess if we name the junior team the Flags too, all the bases would be covered? Personal choice: Port Huron Hawks or Port Huron Falcons (Maybe the Port Huron Perigrines, like the ones under the bridge?) I was also thinking that the Port Huron Falcons would be a good name. How about the Port Huron Pirates, even though it was the football teams name. I actually thought about this years ago when the Detroit Falcons moved here and became the Border Cats. I would've liked to see the team keep the Falcons name. I guess now that a new team is coming, the name stands out as classic, not too flashy or bush-league. My top choices 1. Port Huron Falcons 2. Blue Water Mariners (or Port Huron Mariners) 3. Port Huron Hawks It's fun to talk about, but I'm sure we'll get something corny, like the SnowCones, or the Bridges, or the Ice Cats, or any of a plethora of off-the-wall, goofy sounding names that will make me look like a tool if I wear the apparel anywhere outside of PH.
