According to the owner and Bettman’s press conference, the plan is to do a two stage renovation to bring the capacity up to 17,000 for hockey. They want to stay downtown and that would be impossible if building a new facility.
Yeah, but they already had a history with Jets hockey in Winnipeg. I agree that there is enough time for Utah to come up with a name, but it’s not as simple as it was when the Thrashers moved to Winnipeg.
Freeze, blizzard and Fury sound like kid's soccer teams. I'm surprised they aren't considering Ice Dogs or bad checks with that line of thinking. Just call them the Smiths, give them a blacksmith logo and call it a day.
Relocating to Utah is not going to fail. There is a sizeable hockey group that loves hockey with the ECHL. Plus having fans here that would drive over an hour or more to come watch helps
I see no reason SLC can’t quickly evolve into a hotbed. For starters, to say that the state of Utah is hungry for another pro sports team would be a major understatement. And, secondly, some of those people that are agnostic about the NHL going to Utah are the same people that said Vegas would never work. The Utah Yeti or Blizzard would be my preferred choices. As for the colors, I would personally go with purple and light blue.
I would vote for the Utah Gulls. The official state bird of Utah is the California Gull. That one state's bird carries another state's name is odd, but there's a reason behind that choice. In the early days of settlement, they were supposedly afflicted by a locust swarm that threatened to destroy all of their crops and starve the people to death. They prayed for deliverance, and a flock of gulls arrived in the area and ate the locusts. Those gulls were later named California Gulls by the ornithological community. I don't know for certain that these events happened, but they are part of Utah legend. The account is connected to the Mormon church, and maybe neither the city nor the NHL wants to lean into Salt Lake City's Mormon heritage that much. I don't live in Utah, and I'm not a member of the LDS Church. However, I think the legend is a neat aspect of Utah heritage. I think Utah Gulls would work very well as a team name because of that connection to the past. I might not ever get to attend a game, but I would consider becoming a fan and buying a jersey. A name that would fit better with Utah's modern tourism industry would be Utah Canyoneers. While we think of canyons as being more a part of the topography of southern Utah, the entire state has some big canyons. Many people like going to Utah to participate in the sport of canyoneering which is the fancy name for hiking and exploring canyons. I could be happy enough with the Utah Pioneers, but that name wouldn't excite me as much. The other names all seem clichè.
@@UtahPropertyWorks My health has failed, so I'm not involved in canyoneering. I don't know who Aaron Ralston is, so I guess I can't imagine that. Of course, I figure that you are joking anyway about making a particular person the mascot. I would imagine a logo that featured a cartoon canyon with people climbing the canyon walls or just wading in water. I see the whole DEI thing as largely stupid. To reflect the fact that much of canyoneering is done by white men and hockey is a sport of white men, the principle character should be a white man portrayed in a positive way. At the same time, "canyoneers" would fit with multiple characters in the logo, and female and minority characters could be portrayed in a way that wouldn't turn the whole logo into a political statement. Many sports fans are tired of politics being dragged into sports. This name and logo would be a departure from traditional types of team marketing. Canyoneering is seen as a new-ish sport and a non-traditional sport in the sense of it not having a scoreboard. The idea would be very out of the box, and maybe it wouldn't work. Overall, hockey people are somewhat traditional. On the other hand, the idea would be a rejection of clichés, and that might appeal to Salt Lake City. For the state of Utah, the logo would be a chance to introduce people to the sport and possibly build more tourism. Of course, canyoneering is one of those activities that becomes less enjoyable when too many people start filling the canyons.
They also filed a trademark application for Utah Yetis and Utah Outlaws. Fury, Outlaws, Yetis, and Blizzard all could work just fine. With quality branding, and they have hired a great firm to assist with that, any of those will work.
@@EinSofQuester they will never go that way with New Orleans and the NFL owning so many of the trademarks in my opinion. I stand by that those other names are no worse than other NHL names and mascots currently being used that nobody complains about. If the branding is tight, any of those will be fine.
@@TheSuperPsychoKiller The Outlaws would mean that they take a lot of penalties, especially 5-minute majors. And many of their players often get suspensions.
The Blizzard logo with the Stag/elk looks pretty sick. Plus we already have the hurricanes, lightning and avalanche, why not a fourth weather based team?
Utah Red Herrings The Seattle Kraken did the same thing. They had all kinds of names trademarked and then they surprised us all with Kraken. My money is on the Utah Yeti.
1: Utah Salty Dogs 2: Utah Stingers ( for the state’s insect, the western honey bee) 3: Utah Coyotes ( yes there are coyotes in Utah) 4: Utah Venom ( for the state reptile, the venomous Gila monster 5: Utah Rattlers ( for the rattlesnake)
As a MN Wild fan, I'm not high on "Fury". As much as I like my team, there's always people asking "What is a Wild?". You're gonna get the same thing with "What is a Fury?".
I really like the Wild name though. It's unique, and fits. It's kinda like a predator...what's a predator? Hopefully, you won't have to explain that cause that could get weird...but it's more of an idea...a unit, a sign, a state of being.
Utah Stingers ⚫️🟡🐝🏒🥅⛸ Utah the bee state the beehive is on all of the State Troopers cars and the entire state goes with the Bee theme so just name them the Utah Stingers makes perfect sense.
Go with what Utah is known for. 'The Utah LDS - The Utah Pioneers (also connected to LDS) - The Utah Sin (if caffeine and alcohol are served in the arena). Oh and yes, I don''t think the move to Utah was good for Coyotes. We'll see if long term Utah sticks for the NHL, I'm not sure it will
I think blizzard would be a little too close to something like avalanche. Yes they’re very different natural disasters but you know they both include snow and stuff so people might think they’re too close to each other
one of the early names i saw listed was the Utah Stone Cutters which i really like & thought was unique. One name that would fit is Lakers but i don't think Jazz fans would go for it
They should be like the Jazz and use another genre of music from New Orleans, and call themselves the Utah Bounce! 🤣 And every home game during player intros, they should play Triggerman and Brown Beats 🤣🤣🤣🤣
To me it's a shame they don't use the Salt Lake denomination, such a commercial fame since the olympics. I thought of Salt Lake Crystals but Utah Raptors would be the best in this case.
Utah Yeti, Utah Blizzard are my picks. But I also like Utah Wolverines, or Utah Grizzlies but with Grizzlies they’d have to buy the rights from the ECHL team Utah Grizzlies so I mean, they might even just wait and do the big reveal at the draft this year too
I currently live in Colorado and am from Salt Lake City my dad who’s grew up in salt lake told me Utah had a team a long time ago called the golden eagles which I thought sounded like a good name for the team
Utah Stingers! ‘The Hive’ is the arena; fans would be ‘the Swarm’. Honeybee is the state insect. Beehive is the symbol. And pros know the fans can be a loud, angry, obnoxious Swarm!
Why even call it a relocation when it's just moving the players and coaching staff of an existing franchise to a new franchise, while leaving the other franchise dormant? It's basically a similar situation to what happened in the NFL with the Cleveland Browns and Baltimore Ravens.
Austin is not going to get an NHL team. Anyone who's actually familiar with Texas knows that just because Houston isn't "trendy" doesn't mean it's not fit for a team. It's a massive market with far more infrastructure and land options than Austin, which is hopelessly crowded and doesn't have the space for a new large arena unless it's built 30+ minutes from city center.
Well knowing how stupid the internet is on most things, I sure hope they don't listen to the internet on this one. They should really talk to the natives and see what they think.
Yet again. It's like you look at Cliff notes from some obscure report and then make up some conclusions based on that. No new arena is planned, they are going to renovate the old one to stay down town. Should end up with 17.5k unobstructed seats by the end. Trademarks filed for yeties and outlaws as well. Jazz attendance is crazy, 290+ sellouts in a row with a team that just finished the season on a 13 game LOSING streak. Officials from the league and team want to make sure this gets branded correctly since you really only have one shot. So yes, no name first year. Since this team took 6 weeks to come to Utah rather than 2 years like a normal expansion, there just hasn't been time to find a name. This is the 2nd and last video I watch from you on this topic.. It's clear you would rather be early in reporting than accurate. All you had to do was watch the 40 minute press conference from Friday to get any of this right
But just maybe 10 minutes north from the Delta Center and where the MLB stadium is being built is the Salt Lake county line which when crossing that line is another 1 million people and on the south end into Utah county another 500k not to mention the spill over of Salt Lake county people flowing into the Tooele County just around the mountain to the west. It is quite a highly populated congested area of people, not just the Salt Lake metro.
Once again another person totally ignorant on what makes a tv market for pro sports. There is 1.3 million people in metro SL but in the adjacent counties (45 min from downtown SL) there's an additional 1.5 million people for a total 2.8 million people, which is the 27th largest tv market in the US. Much bigger than Birmingham lol
@@thefox47545but now it's the C shown on the Colorado state flag they represent and the Avs mascot is a St. Bernard replacing the Yeti mascot and Footprint shoulder patch plus in hockey its the rise of mythology creatures, Seattle Kraken andthe Coachella Valley Firebirds
If they choose Blizzard they may want to stay away from using a yeti in the logo. Green Bay has an arena football team called the Blizzard which uses a yeti in the logo. Might cause problems. I would probably choose either Fury or Venom.
@@KP-wt8qr Correct, trademarks go deep and long. Anything that is even close might get a called out. They go back decades looking at trademarks even names from the USFL or other leagues no longer around are still protected.
Utah also has a MLS team that pulls around 20k in attendance. I think NHL will do really well here. People want sports here.

Because a blizzard is a less intimidating avalanche. It’d be like a team in Georgia calling themselves the thunderstorm or spark.

They added “Yeti” to the list of trademarks.

Top 5: Outlaws, Blizzard, Express, Stampede, Grizzlies. Just keep it simple.
The Jazz have had sellouts for 300+ consecutive games.
I worry that they’ll pick something bland so as not to offend any group. I like “Yeti” but I could see a tribe somewhere claiming it was offensive.
5:06. If that's the design they go with for the team, it will sell like hotcakes.

If they choose Blizzard they may want to stay away from using a yeti in the logo. Green Bay has an arena football team called the Blizzard which uses a yeti in the logo. Might cause problems. I would probably choose either Fury or Venom.
Utah Raptors. Anything else will be wildly missing the mark
Not happening. The owner of the Leafs also owns the Raptors, so the Toronto Raptors own the trademark to the name. MLSE would never allow it.
@@KP-wt8qr Correct, trademarks go deep and long. Anything that is even close might get a called out. They go back decades looking at trademarks even names from the USFL or other leagues no longer around are still protected.
