Yeah, they can say that but I don't buy it. This team will have an identity complete with a crap ton of merchandise come the fall. If not much sooner.

Look how much the Knights & Kraken pulled in during their first seasons (not even counting the apparel sold prior to their first year).

I feel like with Fanatics taking over the uniforms next season and the potential delays that might come with it, that might be a factor in not wanting to rush.

I think they should just go with the name suggested by NHL.com: Utah Something. Has a nice ring to it.

I wonder if Mereulo has the ability to sell his exclusive rights. If he wins the land auction, that could potentially be an attractive package.

Should be interesting. Yesterday was an emotion day but I’m kind of looking forward to a few years of not thinking about this

They should take a page out of Washington's book. Utah Hockey Team.

They'll have a name and logo by the draft, even if it's a prototype jersey.

Take a page from the Russian teams at the last Olympics - monochrome sweater with "Hockey Team from Utah" screened on the front.

These exist at a lot of places. Minute Maid Park has one. You sign a pledge and they give you a free pop/soda voucher, sometimes it's refillable for free. You don't even have to drive anyone, be there with anyone, or even have a car.

Pretty nice deal if you weren't going to drink anyway, or if you are actually being a designated driver.

I would go with Utah HC permanently before I chose the flaming pile of trash that is "Utah Yetis".
