HC is so stupid. Keep that shit in soccer just like their stupid diving. Mammoth it is then.

I'm disappointed it took this long for someone to make this reference... not as disappointed the HC is still in the running, but disappointed none the less.

it was like that when I got here
I got this:
“According to Utah Native-American expert LaVan Martineau, the word "Wasatch" means frozen penis! On page 186 of Martineau's well-researched book on Utah indian legends, lore and language he records: "Wasatch -- the name comes from the Paiute and Ute Indian phrase pronounced Wuhu'Seai, meaning Frozen Penis.”
Best. Pro. Sports. Name. Ever.

...I was debating doing it earlier, but it seemed too "low hanging fruit"...then I had another cup of coffee (it's almost 1:30 am here) and said what the fark, "low hanging fruit" it is...
...I change my vote!!!...WASATCH it is!!...

If they keep hockey club they should have their team revoked and relocated.

...with this new tidbit of news, the Winnipeg Jets and the Utah Frozen Penis have to change names...cuz if you're ever gonna get a frozen penis, Winnipeg is probably the place it happens...

...just leave room on the front of the jersey for it to "expand" when winning...

The only one left that is remotely cool is Wasatch, and I haven't heard anyone else support it (limited sample size, I suppose). Local regional ties, it's fun to say, and you can see the mountains right from SLC. It's like calling a sports team the Rockies.
I'm fine with it. I thought Yeti would have been OK too.
Mammoth is going to be the 'Kraken' of expansion goofball names.

Hockey Club is so boring and uninspired, but dude owns an NBA team and that league knows boring and uninspired. Wasatch is a stupid second, but not as bad as HC. Mammoth is really the only legitimate option that would allow for a decent logo set.
I'd prefer the pluralized Woolly Mammoth's though. That would be awesome.

Except that there are probably 20+ Hockey Clubs in European hockey.
