But yeah, those other names stink. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The obvious name is the Utah Buzz; it fits with the bee theme and aligns with the NBA Utah Jazz name. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doohicksie Posted April 25 Report Share Posted April 25 4 hours ago, IKnowPhysics said: Meruelo is a delusional narcissist that won't admit defeat despite his ineptitude and toxicity. He'll pretend he still owns a franchise with zero hockey being played. He still thinks he's the lone savior despite everyone and everything in Arizona refusing to work with him. The NHL is simpler: it's always money. They can get Meruelo an expansion team or a moved team for him. Or they can plug in a expansion team into Arizona with a different owner and then either buy the IP rights back from Meruelo or just plug in a non-Coyotes franchise without the rights. They don't give a *****. Money over everything. Yeah, I thought about giving someone else a franchise and letting him sell the naming rights to the new owner for something stupid like a hundred mill. 5 hours ago, OverPowerYou said: Will Salt Lake City have a new team name? In short, yes. The former owner, Meruelo, owns the rights to the Coyotes name and logos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Guava Posted April 26 Report Share Posted April 26 They should call themselves the Utah SaltLickers and have the logo be a miner licking a hockey puck made out of salt 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabres73 Posted April 26 Report Share Posted April 26 Utah is the leading global producer of beryllium, which is used x-ray equipment. How about the Utah X-Rays? It's as good as anything else they've come up with. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Porous Five Hole Posted May 9 Report Share Posted May 9 Owner Ryan Smith has said the team will have a name starting with Utah. The options to choose from are Frost, Ice, Powder, Mountaineers, Freeze, Mammoth, Black Diamonds, Blast, Caribou, Blizzard, Swarm, Hive, Outlaws, Yeti, Squall, Fury, Glaciers, Canyons, Venom and HC, which stands for Hockey Club. https://www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/id/40111549/utah-offers-20-team-name-ideas-including-frost-hive-venom I am not a fan of any of them… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weave Posted May 9 Report Share Posted May 9 Caribou? That seems a stretch. Are there any caribou in Utah outside of farms raising them? Them’s a tundra species. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like Utah is not cold enough to have a yeti for the mascot, but that may just be me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
