They've already got their retro jersey for Year Two.

Don't mind it but I feel like it's going to look like a bluer version of San Jose ignoring the logo.

Variation is good. Vegas chose a not great colour scheme but at least it was different.

Also Mammoth would be a great name and I hope it's their pick. It's good in fact that I might adopt them as a second team.

Fail. Could you imagine being a billionaire, buying a hockey team, and this is what you choose? Wonder if McDavid chose the colour scheme.

Washington Redskins = Washington Football Team
Utah Hockey Club = Utah White Skins.

Makes sense?

Reminds me more of the Jets color scheme or the Kraken. Too close for 3 of them.

Don't mind the Utah HC stuff. It's should be that or Mammoth.

Really? It's like the last 25 years didn't even happen. The Delta Center is just as bad as US Airways was when Phoenix moved there from Winnipeg.

Aside from getting rid of a bad owner, I'm not exactly sure what has been accomplished.

Now this garbage of a reveal.

This franchise is cursed.

Yeah, it is common in soccer. A lot of the time though, the team will organically adopt a nickname. The Montreal Canadiens followed this path actually. They are officially "le Club de Hockey Canadien", or in English the "Canadian Hockey Club". Canadiens was just the short version adopted and later made official.
The HC that makes up their logo actually stands for "Hockey Club".

I like the colors, reminds of the Houston Aeros unis from the WHA. The logo and name are temporary so whatever.

This is a surprise to people?

They said basically day 3 after the shock announcement of moving, that they were going to be generic year 1, with the name and uniforms etc, while they nail the branding and name for year 2. It takes that long for everything to run through the league channels for any team for a rebrand or for uniform and logo changes.

I expect a fully or mostly different color palette to go with the official name for 2025, though in a few years, fans will clamour for one of these as an alternate.

Dumb question, but when they do choose a final team name are these still the official colors?

I like that colour scheme. Reminds me of the penguins third jersey. Will eventually sell like hotcakes.

Yeti and Mammoth would fit this color scheme. Outlaws not so much
