Five names a press

Five names appear at each press. Choose Hockey puns, Tough or another set from the menu to narrow the draw. The roster set is for managers who live on the waiver wire: Two Goalie Problem, Line Blender Victims, Left My Goalie on the Bench.

The rink words behind the jokes

The five-hole is the gap between a goaltender's legs. A healthy scratch is an uninjured player who does not dress for the game. Sin-bin is another name for the penalty box, and an insurance goal puts a team two ahead. Each one is in a name here.

Tips
  • A hockey fantasy team name generator for work: the clean set has 25 office jokes, such as Skate Before Work.

Questions and answers

What are some funny fantasy hockey team names?

Deke the Halls, Top Shelf Cookie Jar, Crease and Desist and Odd-Man Rush Hour are in the hockey puns set. For roster jokes try Scratch and Sniff Lineup, Goalie Streamers or Overtime Loser Points.

Are these fantasy hockey names clean enough for work?

Yes. All of them are family friendly, and 25 are built on office life for a work league: Assist From Accounting, Faceoff at the Copier and Minor Penalty for Reply All are three.

Why does no name use a player?

A player pun lasts until the next trade or injury, and the name belongs to a real person. These lean on the game itself: icing, the five-hole, the power play, plus-minus.

What is a good name for a last place fantasy hockey team?

The last place set has 26: Empty Net Against, Hit the Post Again, Swiss Cheese Goaltending and Golf Season Starts Early among them.

How this list was compiled: A list of 149 fantasy hockey team names written by Wheel of Teams on 2026-10-01 and filed in five groups. Every name is a pun on a hockey term, a fantasy league habit or office life; none uses the name or nickname of a real player, coach, team, league, arena or fantasy platform, and any match with a real team is a coincidence. The hockey terms were looked up on 2026-10-01 in Wikipedia's Glossary of ice hockey terms (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_ice_hockey_terms). Compared by script the same day with every other name list on this site: no name is repeated. Nothing was checked against a trademark register. Licence: own work
