Blizzard is way too close to The Avalanche. If they do pick that name, I hope they use the Avs colors too.
Onoudidnt
They really hate their team names ending in an S
gratephulnole
These all suck

These are awful. Maybe they could throw an “elite” in there somewhere.

Utah HC it is then lol damn talk about a downgrade.

Utah Yetis is better than these names.

There seems to be a direct correlation between having the money to buy a pro team in any sport and being bad at choosing nicknames. The good choices like Kraken are rare enough to prove the rule.

They’ll do Utah hockey club and then do a year long survey to find an identity

I’m telling ya the name needs to be the diamond billed rock pecker.
If they don’t name themselves the SLC Punks then what are they even doing
_gwynbliedd
The Utah Arizona Coyotes would be a better name
Necx999
Really shocked not going with The Hive or bee something related. I can see PR doing swarm mech or bee related.
Venom doesn’t work tho. Stingers? Swarm?
xizrtilhh
Utah Jazz Hands

I like the Utah Stormin’ Mormons

Those are some generic-ass names.

Are they also opening a professional roller hockey team? Because that’s the only place for names like this.

How do we know Utah trademarked these and not some squatter?
Heavywrench2104
Utah wolves, keep it canine

Utah HC and Utah Hockey Club just sound like soccer team names.
ReginaldCou5ins
This isn’t soccer! also, FUCK MERULO

I saw an ESPN article mention the Swarm as a possible name and I kinda like that one the most, I didn’t realize Utah was so into Bees

Utah Hockey Team for two seasons until we come up with a real name

Utah Hockey Club LMAO
gtjacketsball
The Hockey Club formerly known as the Arizona Coyotes

The Utah Phoenix, just to confuse everyone.
The Utah Roadrunners, for a natural rivalry with the eventual Coyotes expansion.

I like the Utah yetis

Utah Archers … Arches National Park is in the state… Archers could then be used as a reference to shooters. Idk, if done right could be a cool play on words.

Well, Utah Jazz is so perfectly matched because we all know how ubiquitous jazz music is throughout the state. So, I say we go with something like The Utah “Surfers”
Rjskill3ts21
All those names are bad

Should be the Salt Lake Swarm. Bees for the logo.
