Utah Hockey Club down to final 3 names: Hockey Club, Mammoth, and Outlaws (upd: Wasatch already nixed)

Outlaws in Utah just doesn't add up and I hate the HC thing so Mammoth would be the best and make a great logo too.

They could also go back in history and have Keith Tkachuk as their mammoth mascot right?

Legit. I’m in. They could be like the dark knights to the Vegas’ golden knights with ties to the military.

Someone needs to explain to me how some company blocks Yeti but the NHL can not block a company from selling STANLEY CUPS?!!!!

You'll note that Stanley never actually uses the term "Stanley Cup" in trade. They call them tumblers. There's a reason for that.

Are there wolverines in Utah? They are certainly badass creatures.
Utah Wolverines....
idk if that “sounds” good, though.

Wasatch Wolverines

alliteration is key

 

[VaporTrail]

Hockey Club.

It's a shitty name if the whole league is named "Hockey Club", but if you're the first ones to do it, yeah. Do it.

This would be ideal, but I come from a place and time where everyone makes the wrong choices but can talk a good game.

It doesn't matter, until it does.

Most people think LDS when they think Utah, not outlaws just my first impression on that name.

Yeti was dumb name but still ticked the courts blocked it and also let Stanley Cup be used by a product (utterly bizarre - I'm going to start putting out a line of Lombardi Cooler Bags and make a fortune).

The courts didn’t block anything.

The US Patent & Trademark Office rejected Utah HC’s application to trademark the use of the word “Yeti” in order to sell "clothing, namely, shirts, T-shirts, jerseys, sweatshirts, sweatpants, caps, hats, scarves, infant and toddler one-piece clothing, pajamas, bandanas, underwear, gloves, socks, shorts, suspenders, swim trunks, coats, jackets, robes, pants, leggings, sweaters, ear muffs, cloth bibs, belts, warm-up suits, headbands and wristbands"

Since there’s already a company who trademarked the use of the wordmark “Yeti” for selling many of those same items, it shouldn’t really be a surprise that Utah HC’s application was denied.

and also let Stanley Cup be used by a product (utterly bizarre - I'm going to start putting out a line of Lombardi Cooler Bags and make a fortune)

William Stanley patented the original insulated “Stanley” drinking vessel in 1913, long before the hockey trophy was being used to sell merchandise

Bro doesn't know that Utah was in the Wild West, pretty much the epicenter of it.

Yeah people aren't great with geography but they'll figure this one out fast. It's not complicated.
