Utah team nickname/colors/logo, mascot (and related marketing)

[Nogatco Rd]

"Hockey Club" kills me. They better not keep it. This isn't soccer, and just seems so... "EURO" Like, Canadians, Americans, Hockey... just exudes toughness and that name just oozes soccer soft.

The Canadiens have had the initials for “hockey club” on their jerseys for over 100 years, and it’s been written on the Stanley cup dozens of times… just sayin

Probably, but still nothing officially official.

I like the Utah jerseys and since a nickname is a complete marketing tool at this point, why get excited over it?

Utah Yeti, and the anything but a cringy logo that will accompany it, will be a negative.

Clayton Keller pretty much confirms dit before the season, inadvertently

And guess what? Everybody who bought the UHC stuff is gonna be back in the store or online buying the “Yeti” or “Venom” or whatever gear.

“Utah Yeti Venom”sounds incredibly badass

Utah Yetis? or Utah Yeti, as in one singular Yeti?

No, it's a sideways toilet bowl, we all know that

Singular

Singular

Interesting. I guess there is a tradition of referring to cryptids in the singular but still a little weird. Of course there is NHL precedent both ways: Seattle Kraken, singular; New Jersey Devils, plural.

I think across the big four leagues there's less than 10 or 15 singular names. Miami Heat, Orlando Magic two I know off the top of my head.

Even more so when you lose to them by a touchdown.....



Seriously...... I personally think they've settled on Yeti as the mascot, but they're having all the usual issues with branding conflicts, trademarking and etc.
