Possible Names For Utah's New NHL Team

The new Utah NHL team does not have a name yet and it might be a while before it has one.

Ryan Smith wants to take his time in trying to decide on the name mascot and branding of the new hockey team. What do you think the name should be?

Remove Fury and Venom immediately. Awful just terrible.

Only one right choice: 👣

Venom and fury are no go’s. Blizzard is good, Yeti is king 👑

[mikescorpio]

The Utah Scorpions with possibilties of insane logo.

[o.ojochide]

Utah Blizzard/Yeti would be great. Also that would make the Colorado - Utah rivalry the Avalanche - Blizzard/Yeti rivalry

[roberthoyt]

Remove Utah HC and Utah Hockey Club. Those names are stale and useless. This isn't soccer (or football outside North America), this is hockey.

As a Panthers fan I like Utah Yetis a lot

[kai-kristianmalinen]

Utah Yetis for me is the best name, hands down. 🙌🏻

Utah Outlaws. One of the greatest outlaws Butch Cassidy (Robert Leroy Parker) is from Utah. 100% needs to be the Outlaws!

I’ve been obsessed with the Utah Raptors name.

[SteveEagles]

10/10 don’t recommend Blizzard. That’s a less intimidating Avalanche

Utah Swarm... the arena could be nicknamed The Hive

[icewyre]

I hate that they won't have a name right away. I think it's really stupid. Even if they have a name but then don't have branding, and use a Utah jersey, that's fine. But at least give us a name in the next few months.

[EpilepticBob]

Utah Yeti, Utah Grizzlies, Utah Blizzard, maybe Utah Wolf Pack

[GreatOwlLightning]

The Utah Wendigo…would be a pretty epic name. Imagine the logo😱

[TokyoAlex]

Roadrunners.
I don't even know if the bird lives in the state. Just watching Arizona lose their Coyotes to the Roadrunners sounds fun.

[Ell-J]

As a Rangers fan, I'd like to welcome the state of Utah to the NHL

[conradt]

Blizzard with the yeti in the logo is just a ripoff of the Colorado Avalanche with their Bigfoot logo.

[keefechambers]

I just want to see Orgazmo and Choda Boy as the mascots.

I understand not rushing it, but you have to have a name when the season starts. You can't just play without an identity.

Utah Yahoos!!
Nah I'd like to see Utah Rattlers. Keeps the Southwest feel of the Coyotes and pays homage to one of Utah's most common critters
