Final 3 nicknames for Salt Lake City NHL team

• Utah Hockey Club. The team's current name was meant as a placeholder for its inaugural season in Salt Lake City, after Smith Entertainment Group purchased the Arizona Coyotes franchise. "It has always been our intention to let our season one identity as Utah Hockey Club, the team's performance and the amazing response from our fans hold the conversation through our inaugural season," said Chris Armstrong, the team's president of hockey operations.
• Utah Mammoth. This nickname was one of six finalists from a fan vote held last year, along with Utah Blizzard, Utah Hockey Club, Utah Outlaws, Utah Venom and Utah Yeti. Team owner Ryan Smith later revealed on ESPN's "The Pat McAfee Show" that Mammoth had made the final four options.
• Utah Wasatch. This is an entirely new option for Utah's team name, as it wasn't included in the initial 20 names presented to fans in a survey. It references Utah's Wasatch mountain range, known for its many ski resorts. But the team acknowledges that it's basically a replacement for Utah Yeti. The name will allow the team to use a "mythical snow creature in the form of a Yeti" as its mascot, according to Mike Maughan of Smith Entertainment Group.

They got rid of Yeti and kept those names?

Utah Voodoo - Take another name from NOLA that makes no sense in Utah.

Yeti coolers was one of the reasons Yeti was blocked
Interestingly, Mammoth is also the name of Denver's professional lacrosse team.
I like Mammoth and Wasatch is interesting.
Preferred the Super Soakers or Stormin' Mormons though

Dumb as hell that Yeti was blocked, how many teams are the Tigers? How can you have an exclusive trademark on a mythical creature?

They’ll take them too, and make them way more successful in slc than they ever were in New Orleans.
Just like the Jazz.

I think there are trademark issues with Yeti. Too bad, it’s the best choice.
