The NHL team in Utah is currently in the final stages of selecting a new name, with six options remaining. Smith Entertainment Group recently announced that the potential names have been narrowed down to Blizzard, Mammoth, Outlaws, Venom, Yeti, and Utah Hockey Club (Utah HC). These choices emerged from an initial list of 20 possibilities, with a total of 520,000 votes cast by fans.
Interested parties have until June 20 to participate in the second round of voting to determine the team's official name. Owner Ryan Smith has expressed his intention for the team's jerseys to prominently feature 'Utah' during the inaugural season. The team's branding is expected to incorporate elements of the state's identity, as per Smith's vision.
