Utah Mammoth new name for Utah HC?

[RiverbottomChuck]

How do you go with "Mammoth" when "Outlaw" is right there?

Mammoth is awful, but this is also a league where a team has the name Wild.

"Canadiens" cuz we'er in Canada... also "Canucks" ... we have a "Senate" let's be "Senators"... killed a bunch of people and took their land "Blackhawks" ... stole a hockey team let's be called the "Stars" nobody else has those

I'm sure the victims of Helene love the "Hurricanes" name -- at least Connecticut had a whaling industry at one point

What's the least threatening, most innocuous thing in nature? A leaf? Exactly what's needed to intimidate opponents!

 

[Fatass]

Is it this cute wooly mammoth mouse?

 

[Ivan eht Demidov]

Not a fan, would have much preferred "Rogues" or "Sidewinders" (yes, I know, weren't even fan vote options, but those were all terrible).

If it's going to be Mammoth, at the very least they need a new logo (not the fan-vote one, it's bland), and they need to have the tusks on their mammoth in the logo make a slightly subtle "U", otherwise what are we even doing??

 

[MrLunatik]

Are they going to announce the name that was picked soon or are they going to wait right before the new season starts to release it?

Probably the draft

 

[Machinehead]

I liked Outlaws. Hate most non-plural team names. Mammoth? As in singular? Awful. Sounds like a National Lacrosse League franchise name.

I like Kraken, that name slaps imo. I hated Wild at first but they’ve been the Wild for so long now I can’t imagine them as anything else.

That's because it is.

But the Outlaws are a PLL team, so either way.

Okay, but did you see the mock Utah concept on Reddit?

Cool. Did you see the teams mock?

 

[Timeless Winter]

Officially Utah Mammoth now.

 

[MrLunatik]

So I was just looking on google... and there is a Ghost Town in Utah called Mammoth.... this could be why they have it singular

this was the concept logo I came up with a while back

 

[KCC]

But that doesn’t say Outlaws…

Outlaws is trash and generic. Sounds like an arena football team name.

 

[Garbageyuk]

Sounds like a roller hockey league name.

No those always have Zs in the name

What a mammoth moment for Utah

This is just the Red Deer Rebels.

Says who?

 

[Rabid Ranger]

This is just the Red Deer Rebels.

That might have been one of the reasons they didn't go that direction. Mammoth is probably my third or fourth choice, but I think could be cool if the logo sticks the landing.

How did they get the copyright permission away from weight watchers anonymous?

Legal Battle ahead

Brace yourselves!

Weight Watchers is not anonymous

 

[DaveG]

But that doesn’t say Outlaws…

sucks but better than "hockey club"

yup, and at least it's not Yeti, holy f*** that was a bad idea and I'm glad the cooler company wasn't going to cooperate with it.

Utah Ma'am Moths

Utah Moth Ma'ams?

"Utah just signed him to a mammoth contract."

 

[Foppberg]

Honestly.. I was kind of digging the Utah HC thing. In a 'It's so lame and basic I like it" way.

 

[jetsforever]

Mammoths are cool but I don't understand why they want to make it singular, like we're all collectively one single mammoth
The trend towards singular names is annoying

There is an old ghost town in Utah called Mammoth, I think that may be part of the reason.

As a fellow Mammoth, I approve.
