I've seen Mammoth as a possibility. I've warmed up to that name. No elephant mascots in any pro sports right now. But yeah, those other names stink. Quote

The obvious name is the Utah Buzz; it fits with the bee theme and aligns with the NBA Utah Jazz name. 1 Quote

shrader Posted April 25 Report Posted April 25 Please don’t go with the soccer team naming convention. 1 Quote

Doohicksie Posted April 25 Report 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
Big Guava Posted April 26 Report 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
Sabres73 Posted April 26 Report 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
Porous Five Hole Posted April 27 Report Posted April 27 A tip of the hat to techno group Utah Saints. It has a nice ring to it. 1 Quote
Porous Five Hole Posted May 9 Report 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
Weave Posted May 9 Report 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

CallawaySabres Posted May 9 Report Posted May 9 Utah Yeti seems like a no-brainer. The logo has the potential to be pretty sick too. Quote
