In an unforgettable moment, the Utah hockey club scored their first-ever goal—unfortunately, it was into their own net. During a preseason NHL game against the St. Louis Blues, a fluke play led to Utah scoring on themselves, gifting the Blues a two-goal lead. Despite the embarrassing mistake, the moment went viral, with even the Blues’ social media trolling the new team for the mishap. While this moment won’t count in the record books, it certainly left a mark on fans and the NHL’s newest team.

Boy, those Utah jerseys are rather…wait, what was I talking about?
They might have solidified history with that own goal empty netter but they won that game anyways. The statement being "We can score on our own net and still beat you."
First game first win for Utah good start regardless of the goal mishap.

PETITION TO CALL THEM: THE UTAH HORNS

Oh YOURE the Peak Football guy? I knew it sounded familiar!
The lockeroom door not lining up with the bench door was mildly frustrating.
Why's the scoreboard so messed up? It shows 2-0 prior to a goal that allegedly make it 2-0, and also it has the home team first.
so they have no name, no logo, no team uniform, no team colours, and they scored their first goal against themselves.
LMFAO. What a joke.
Am I the only one who thinks they should just be the Coyotes? Utah Coyotes actually sounds better than Phoenix/Arizona Coyotes because it has repeating consonant sounds (y- and t-) without being straight alliteration.
The last two syllables in "coyote" almost sound like "Utah".
Welcome to the NHL, Salt Lake Shitties!
At least it was preseason
What’s more disgusting than a team scoring their first goal in themselves?
The NFL
The blues losing is more embarrassing 💀💀
2 on 1? That's a 2 on 0.
Utah has a team?
LOL
Go YOTES!!
Sounds about right for a former Arizona franchise. Luckily for them, it's preseason, so the L doesn't count.
Honestly, it's one of the wildest things I've seen in sports. When has a professional franchise ever that before? 😂
Funny the big deal that’s been made about a preseason game. If you are going to talk only about an own goal might want to mention that they gave them a good but still won in dominant fashion
Its a preseason game so who cares.
I hate this team already
Pretty much describe this franchise (WPG, PHX, UTH) history
Sounds about right…
Honestly props to utah for doing this before the leafs could
I wish these announcers would learn the rules of hockey, because any goals scored in pre season, aka,practice,do not count in the team's history.Only actual regular season and playoff goals count in the history of a team.
How did TiJ iginla do?
That's what they get for choosing sky blue as a team color.
Of course it was.
There always a dumpster fire
Those Utah jerseys along with that logo make them look like a rural peewee team… Actually nevermind, that's insulting to peewee hockey, some small town jerseys go hard.
At least the color scheme is pretty good.
Is Gary bettman ever going to get his head out of his ass and move this franchise to Quebec.
Shitah hockey club
utah won 5-3 .. that's the takeaway here ,, own goal ,, who cares ..no problem ..

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Karma sucks. Pick a proper name.
St. Louis is gonna be so bad man. Where the hell was the d on like all these goals.
Joke of a franchise. Can't even come up with a name or uniform to start the season. 🤦🏻
so fitting
What focus group of drooling idiots thought that baby blue was a good color for any team to wear that doesn't want to look like a JV powderpuff team? How could Utah have spent so much money on getting a professional designer to pick out such hideous colors, let alone the incredibly unimaginative, uninspired jersey that looks like a default jersey that EA made the interns design for a Create a Team mode they knew no one would play.
Vejmelka's setup was ICY! Somehow the Blues still lost, bums.
Alright; I've seen enough. Time to send 'em back to Phoenix!
Maybe it will be lucky for them
Shut up👺👺👹 (not actually)
