I have mixed feeling. Colours don't feel unique. Logo looks like the Predators and Wild had a baby. And the chant in the rink will be "let's go mammies" which sound pornographic ;)

But, it could have been so much worse.

Reminds me of the Sabres logo on the left.

"let's go mammies"

Why wouldn't it just be "Let's go Mammoths"? It's the same number of syllables.

A lot of people find the "ths" sound hard to articulate. It's made worse when screaming. Try it -- the volume just kind of dies at the end of the word. Professional singers do enunciation exercises to train clarity, but fans notsomuch

Mammoth or Mammoths since there's more than one player?? LOL

What’s the name of the band? The Lone Rangers? There’s three of you. You’re not exactly “lone.”

They combine into one big mammoth, like Voltron.

Nobody's going to be able to stop that power play!

Not to be confused with the Colorado Mammoth box lacrosse team 😂

Kidding aside I like the name and color scheme. Nice work Utah

I thought they should have just stuck with Utah hockey club. Kinda unique for a hockey team to not have a “name”.

Their name and logo looks like they should be a AHL team.

As a Finn I will call them Utah Mummoth. Mummo means a granny in Finnish and Mummot means grannies.

They need to release a calendar of their most hirsute players to mess with the Mormons. No other reason.

The rallying cry will be “tusks up”

No. I’ll go to the games since I live nearby but there’s not enough booze in the state to make that sound cool. Logo looks like blue Preds but ok

I dont mind the name, but im having second thoughts about the colors. At first I thought the Ice blue was a little different but honestly, I just get them confused with Seattle half the time... Why does 3/4 of the league have to be Red, or Blue?

I especially do not like the Away jersey.

I know hockey in Arizona was Cooked, but these are a massive downgrade from the Coyotes, both of theirs, the Kachina and the Maroon/Black howler jerseys.
