As per the CBC: “The PWHL worked with New York City-based creative agency Flower Shop to assist in the process.” Unsaid: they refused to work with a Canadian agency.
I don’t think the names are particularly amazing, but they’re not terrible.
Maybe it resonates better in French, but just sounds generic to me. Like the Alliance. Why can’t we have names that have more to do with Montreal and/or Quebec?

@bob I suspect they meant Victoire as in the French name for Nike, goddess of victory
