The fact that “Utah Hockey Club” is apparently one of the top 6 is absolutely wild to me.

it’s gotta be the Yeti

I’m here for Yeti

Ngl, they don’t have too many compelling choices on that ballot.

Just voted for Outlaws. I think that sounds like a name I could get used to seeing.
MinePlay512
I believe the Blizzards would be just right for Utah.

Have they not learned from John Scott about letting hockey fans do the voting?

So it’s down to:
Utah Drinkware/Coolers
Utah TV Show/Southern Rock Band/Biker gang
Utah Dairy Queen ‘Treat’
Utah Hockey Club you know like they do in Europe and here when you have a problematic name.
Utah Marvel comic character turned movie franchise
Utah Mountain in California/Cave in Kentucky/band of a Van Halen kid

All six are really fucking stupid. Might as well call it Utah HC and just have black and white as the colors. Much more fitting for the plain, boring, mormon ass state

Yeti and Blizzard are absolutely shit names.
Yeti is a lazy copy of significant Avalanche history. They still use the secondary logo of a yeti footprint, for fucks sake. Not to mention, yetis have absolutely nothing to do with Utah, so there isn’t any significance there.
Blizzard is simply far too similar to the Avalanche.
HC is just so fuckin ridiculous.
Outlaws and Mammoth are solid choices and have direct relevance to Utah, vast options for branding, and actually unique. It should definitely be one of those.

“The final name will be selected through a multi-factor process.” Fine print on the voting page that reads an awful lot like “we’ve pretty much already picked it.”

Are these all bad on purpose?

Where’s None of These Lame Names as an option?

There is some fascination they have with trying to pick a name that doesn’t end with “S”…trying to be like the Wild, Kraken, and Avalanche.
But the names are all horrible. Ironically, the only one that isn’t bad is Outlaws, which ends with “S”.

Love Utah Hockey Club 😂

Utah HC? If you guys choose this I’m coming to a game with soccer balls to throw on the ice. Yup, I hate the name- but that could be fun. Outlaws is the only unique name that doesn’t suck. I’m not just saying that to sell more bandana’s and toy 6-shooters.
iamonewhoami
Rough Riders should have made the list IMO

They need to be called the Outlaws. Imagine getting to come out onto the ice with Ghost Riders in the Sky blasting at outrageous volumes with Jets of fire shooting out of the roof.

Mammoth, Yeti, or Outlaws please
dbag3o1
Outlaws and their schedule should be every game at high noon.

They’re really going to miss out on the Utah Teetotallers. Shame.

Lets choose HC for shits and giggles

I’m sad there are no bee themed ones – considering along with Mormons that’s one of Utah’s “things” and there are so many good options
I feel like remaining ones are really generic or just remind me of another team – like Yeti?? I can’t associate that with anything but the avs

“Utah Phoenix” don’t worry it won’t be weird. 🙃
Thepugplugdog
How about Utah Swords?
LeisureSuiteLarry
I hate all those names. Even calling them the Utah Sisterwives would be better.
tke439
The Utah Ice Boys is better than these names.
Hutch25
I mean, there was so many options for names… and then they just skipped past them all and decided to name the team like it’s some small town minor hockey club.
Fetty_is_the_best
Utah Yeti is the worst name I’ve ever heard

Isn’t the plural of mammoth “mammoths”?

Outlaws I think fits utah better than the rest of the names
