Yellowknife (Mar 14/03) - The names are coming.

By phone, by fax, by email: you're telling us what to name Yellowknife's new arena ... or telling us the city should sell the rights for someone else to do it.

Have your say: Vote for anyone or anything you like to be the arena's new name.

Or have the city sell the name to the highest bidder.

There are two questions here: One is to sell the name or to come up with one; the second question is who would be the best candidate.

So far, you are voting three-to-one to pick a name over selling it. See below for the top candidates.

Five ultimate winners will each get a family skating pass. Their names will be drawn from the suggestion that earns the most votes.

Fill out our ballot, then drop it off to Yellowknifer offices on 51st St.; OR Fax the ballot to 873-8507; OR E-mail it to editorial@nnsl.com; OR phone in your choice to 873-4031. Ask for the editorial dept.

You have until 5 p.m., March 24, to enter. We'll announce the top five picks on March 26.

Then you will have one last chance to pick the best of the best.
