The Ottawa RedBlacks say "Hold my beer!".

I loved it when they insisted it be all in caps. :laugh:

I honestly prefer RedBlacks over Outlaws or whatever the hell it was they had in Ottawa previously. Generic AF.

Didn't the CFL have the Roughriders and Rough Riders at the same time? How long did that go? That's about as hilarious as the AHL having two teams calling themselves the Admirals.

Y'all gonna be ok when Van passes the Avs in the standings and Hughes wins his 2nd straight Norris over Makar?

I'm so glad I've mellowed. Geting that third cup in '22, just fundamentally changed the way I view sports.

I really didn't think I would live to see another Championship. Thank God I didn't choose Toronto as my team when I started to watch hockey. Anyways, these guys gave me everything I could want and then some. I think it was mid December of 21 when I realized that particular team had something a bit more special than the previous iterations. Then as the spring started to come things just started looking better and better and the Avs literally cruised to a championship (even using a backup goaltender to sweep the McDavid and Draisaitl led Edmonton Oilers). Total score that series as 22-13 Avs.

These guys might be capable of disappointing going forward. But thankfully, that's about the most negativity I can muster towards an entertainment activity these days. It would be fun to raid the promised land one more time though!

Oh man, they're swapping out the only interesting one to go with...Outlaws!?!?

Jesus, I thought this ownership group knew what they were doing.

Now Utah is considering the Outlaws again as their name.

So two of the three options are the names of Denver-based pro lacrosse teams:
en.wikipedia.org

Colorado Mammoth - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org en.wikipedia.org
en.wikipedia.org

Denver Outlaws - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org en.wikipedia.org

Maybe they'll come up with Utah Broncos, Utah Nuggets, or Utah Rockies next.

Switch out "Hockey Club" for "Utah Denver Lacrosse Team".

I love the people on Twitter who like Outlaws like it's clever or cool. Hey, are you a ten-year-old on Create A Team? Oh you are? Oh.

Does "I'm proud to be a mammoth" sound any better?

I've already said. Stop calling them "Hockey Club", just call them Utah. It's not hard.

Yes of course it does. We've all accepted that sports teams are named after things. We know they're a hockey club. That's not a name.

Just calling them Utah wouldn't make any sense either. There's tons, perhaps hundreds of sports team at various levels in Utah, including many in hockey. The name is meant to differentiate themselves and give their team an identity.
