Team officially unveils new name - Utah Mammoth

Makes no sense using the singular form of Mammoth but ok....

Avalanche. Kraken. Lightning. Wild.
Go over there too while you're at it with that nonsense.

Avalanche is capable of being pluralized but I think it actually rolls more easily off the tongue as singular "Avalanche."
Kraken is both the singular and plural form of the noun.
Lightning is a mass noun. "Lightnings" is technically a word but sounds weird, whether the name of a sports team or not.
Wild can go either way. "Wilds" sounds strange for the name of a sports team, but a phrase like "into the wilds" is natural.
Mammoth is the outlier to me. I know what they're going for, but I still don't like it not being pluralized.

I don't really know why I wrote this response.

Go over there too while you're at it Avalanche makes sense in singular form...Kraken is actually considered a plural form of the word...This is why you don't see teams call bruin, panther, predator, etc... Sounds like someone needs to learn proper grammar..But have at it with your singular Mammoth. Lol

Kraken is always singular because they've never seen more than one together. :sarcasm:
