What makes a good beer league hockey team name?

A good beer league hockey team name should sound like it came from the room. It should be easy to say, easy to remember, and funny enough that another team notices it on the schedule.

The best names usually come from hockey slang, bad habits, beer league culture, Canadian references, fantasy league shame, old knees, missing backchecks, and players who still think they have one more good season left.

Turn A Name Into A Tradition

A team name is good. A team puck is better.

How to choose the right team name

Pick a name that matches the actual personality of the team. A good beer league name should feel natural when someone says it out loud at the rink.

If the team is older, lean into age and self awareness. If the team is competitive, use hockey slang. If the team is mostly there for the postgame, pick a beer league name. If it is for fantasy hockey, make it slightly painful.
