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

[majormajor]

Just no HC please. Can't stand it.

Mammoth and Wasatch are both good.

I don't know what a Wasatch is but it has a cool sound. And Mammoth is always bad ass.

 

[FunkySeeFunkyDo]

Off to the dictionary to look up “Wasatch” will report any findings.

 

[ToDavid]

It should be Elk, it should always have been Elk.

 

[Maple Leaf]

Wasatch ?

 

[bossram]

What the hell is a wasatch?

Honestly, just keep HC. It would be unique for the NHL.

 

[BKarchitect]

I actually really like both non-HC names.

I really dig Wasatch.

 

[SteelCityCannon]

If it’s Utah HC, I’m going to laugh my ass off

Like when Homer J. Simpson went on an epic quest to finally found out what the J stood for and it was Jay?

 

[SjMilhouse]

WTF is a “Wasatch”

A mountain range in Utah

 

[Bounces R Way]

Those are all terrible. Like really bad.

The Utah identifier seems to limits things for some reason. Why didn't they do Salt Lake somethings? Are they really worried the people of West Valley City or Moab being turned off the team if they're not expressly included?

 

[FunkySeeFunkyDo]

Disappointed to learn Wasatch isn’t some sort of badass Sasquatch, like, say a Yeti.

 

[EXTRAS]

I like HC but NHL has never done that so I don't think it should be allowed. I dislike the goofiness of most nhl team names but there has to be a standard of commonality.

I guess I'll say the mountain range name is my preference although I'm ignorant to that range. There has to be something better.

Wasatch Mammoth HC of Utah

Going to end up being the worst branding in NHL history imo

 

[bossram]

Wasatch Mammoth HC of Utah

We have a winner

 

[Neil Patrick Harris]

For the love of god, enough with the irregular plurals!

Mammoths. Mammoths! There's more than one of them, dangit!

Not that any of this matters, frankly. Outlaws was the superior option from the start.

 

[JMCx4]

If it’s Utah HC, I’m going to laugh my ass off

Take a video & post here, please.

 

[winnipegger]

MammothS, surely? Is it Mammoth singular? Ladies and gentlemen, your Anaheim Duck. There he is, swimming around.

 

[kvladimir]

These suck , why not do something with bee's aren't they the bee state , utah drones or utah killer bees would be dope (I know the second is impossible lol)

Utah Hive, Utah Hornets, Utah Stingers, Utah Wasps... all better than any of the 3

 

[a mangy Meowth]

We already have that. Have to believe they would get rejected again if they went that direction...

[Hamilton Bulldogs]

We lost the Kachina for this.

 

[Nogatco Rd]

Such a farce, they never actually count the votes in these things.

Pretty sure Nashville voted on “Ice Tigers” or some bullshit and the owner said nah I’m gonna go with Predators

 

[Hamilton Bulldogs]

Man moth?

 

[Nogatco Rd]

anything but HC. This isn't soccer.
I'd pick Mammoth between the 2

Wait til you find out what the habs logo means..

 

[ricky0034]

we're that close to ending up with "Hockey Club"? eww
