Honestly, I don't see this as doing anything useful, productive, or even particularly desirable.
What is with this namecalling thing anyways? Frustration and depression are understandable, but this is just juvenile.

Thanks, Howson, for cleaning up MacLean's toxic waste. Welcome, Kekalainen; let's get good things built!

This is such an annoying thing for a fan to say. Please tell me what you can do that is useful or productive as a teams fan. Honestly I really don't see how making a nickname for an arena is juvenile, but I guess that's just for those who have absolutely no since of humor. Stay on your high horse though, it makes a whole lot of a difference.
Also I like the black hole, everybody that joins this team falls into a never-ending loop of suckage which doesn't really work with the black hole, but it describes this franchise pretty well regardless.

Nicknames are fine, something that sounds forced is not. If it sounds like something that was either a product of a night of blackout drunkenness or by a 9-4 vote in a boardroom, chances are it's a bad idea.
Easy, Viq, juvenile humor has made millions for Sandler, Schneider, Ferrell, and many others. Trying to tell people what they should find amusing is a losing proposition. Just shake your head in disgust and look away. Besides, someone might actually come up with something clever, it's been known to happen around here, on occasion.
In honor of the location's history, shouldn't it be called The Pen? Because, God knows that being a Jackets fan is pretty much life in prison without a possibility of parole.
Other possible reason--name changed by management in honor of visiting Penguins fans.

I like it. The State Pen Arena. Misery & Anguish live within it's walls.
