sabremike Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 Adams didn't sound like a guy who is going to hire another guy with no NHL experience. Lindy and Berube are the two names most people are thinking will get the gig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted April 18 Author Share Posted April 18 The NHL has officially announced the sale and relocation of the Arizona Coyotes to Salt Lake City The team will be renamed though it might have a temporary name for next season Alex Meruelo retains the name, intellectual property and historical records of the Coyotes which is now considered an inactive franchise EDIT - I should note that like the Jazz, the team will go by "Utah" and not "Salt Lake City" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted May 9 Author Share Posted May 9 Because teams will never learn - Utah is doing a fan vote for the new name 20 "finalists" Frost, Ice, Powder, Mountaineers, Freeze, Mammoth, Black Diamonds, Blast, Caribou, Blizzard, Swarm, Hive, Outlaws, Yeti, Squall, Fury, Glaciers, Canyons, Venom and HC, which stands for Hockey Club. I use quotes because they are announced as "finalists" but the Top 4 vote getters will advance to another round where... something will happen I sure hope they had secured the trademarks on all those names before releasing the list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elizium Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 (edited) And apparently they're not going to have a name going into next season, it's not supposed to debut until 2025-26. They're just going to have generic Utah jerseys for next year. Super embarrassing. This guy has apparently been angling for an NHL team for awhile, he doesn't already have a name and logo thought of? Shit, man, I had my own fictional hockey league with 200+ teams that I designed jerseys and logos for when I was 12.

Shit, man, I had my own fictional hockey league with 200+ teams that I designed jerseys and logos for when I was 12. Fitting, given it's your city's old franchise. Maybe they should hire you. Reading the ESPN article about it, it's pretty clear what MASSIVE fuck-ups comprised the prior ownership group, and it's kind of fucking sad they're going to be rewarded for it by being bought out so they can make some ridiculous profits. Always a good reminder that almost no one rich really earned it and the size of their bank account just multiplies the size of the dumbass mistakes they can make.

The correct answer would have been the team going by Salt Lake City, so they could be the SLC Punk. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolfan in NYC Posted June 10 Share Posted June 10 Bettman sorta got forced into saying the Panthers were likely playing one of the outdoor games next year. And that there are negotiations going on with LoanDepot Park in Miami to get the game there. However, he conceded it would probably be up North with one of their new rivals (so, maybe Boston or New York?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted June 10 Share Posted June 10 I’d think many STH there are likely transplanted New Yorkers, so playing vs either the Rangers or Islanders in Citi Field or Yankee Stadium makes sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted June 13 Author Share Posted June 13 Utah's official temporary name is Utah Hockey Club That could end up being its real name as it is one of the finalists in the fan vote The others still remaining besides UHC - Mammoth, Yeti, Outlaws, Blizzard and Venom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 I’m sure United Health Care would prefer they not call them selves UHC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
