Just have to photoshop the opponent’s jersey for that night onto buschemiI don't mind the logo, not too sure how you would improve it. That said I'd know better when I see it.
On the bright side, if they go with Mammoth we can post this gif when they suck

I might be wrong but to me it's weird reading so many both posters and maybe journos seeing these mock jerseys and logos and understanding them as the real deal. Finished product ready to roll out after the fan vote.
In my mind, these logos and jerseys are just place holders or a general idea of what it might look like. Whichever get's picked will get worked on and then the actual jerseys and logo will be released. Nothing says it would be even close to these mock versions.
Tell me I'm wrong if I am but it seems weird that those things would be the final version. That's not me critiquing the concepts themselves, it's just.. why would they be the final versions?

You’re asking way too much of the internet.
That may very well be where they got them. They are meant to be placeholder to indicate the type of thing they are looking at as a logo if that name is chosen. That is, if Mammoth is chose n, the logo will be the head of a mammoth; if Outlaws is chosen, the logo will be the face out of an Old West outlaw; and s. Apparently, it's clearly stated on the ballots that these are placeholders.

The state is helping fund the arena and that part is non-negotiable.
Some people have brought up the NLL Colorado Mammoths in this thread. I suspect Utah already has a deal in place with them to pay for use of the trademark. After all, how much merchandising money does a NLL team make? It probably wouldn't take much for such a payment to be significant income for the Mammoths.

The Mammoth are owned by Stan Kroenke, though. Same owner as the Avalanche, Nuggets, Rapids, LA Rams, and Arsenal. He has Ryan Smith money in his couch.

If they choose Mammoth they should go with a brown and icy blue colourscheme. A really dark brown would be unique.

I agree that would be ideal but doubt it would fly. I expect the Colorado Mammoth to license their name to Utah, but don’t think they’d let them use a nearly identical color scheme.
Either way, Utah would probably find it desirable to differentiate themselves more from their closest geographic competitor (Avalanche)
