* After the fan contest in 1953, it was revealed that the Vancouver label would not be part of the team name. Even though the franchise is based in Vancouver and the "Lions" name was based on a local landmark and legend, Annis Stukus(head coach & G.M.)decided to reject the idea of naming the team as the Vancouver Lions.
