Most likely they do what the Commanders did in the NFL and just use Utah Hockey Club or something for the season while they organize the rest.

The Devils, Avalanche, Hurricanes, and Jets 2.0 were all able to get their new branding done over the summer in time to start play in the fall after their sales were finalized in May. The Coyotes had a longer lead time. The Flames and Stars kept the same uniform designs after they moved, but did change logos (in Dallas's case, they just added a shoulder patch).
If the sale/move is announced before June, they should have plenty of time. I'm sure Smith has already been working behind the scenes on branding concepts.
