Beat BYU! After last year if they can do that the season will already be better.

With the transfer portal who knows how any of these teams, including Utah, will be next year.

I love the Mammoth and Yeti logos and would be happy with either name. Utah Outlaws just doesn’t roll off the tongue.

Of the choices left I like Mammoth. It fits the color scheme selected and rolls off the tongue better than Outlaws. I have seen jersey mockups on social media that look really cool.

I’d be happy with Utah Hickey Club but I don’t think that will win.

We just need to get used to every player being fair game even in season. The best way we can protest is not watch and spend money but all the emotional investment over the years is tough to walk away from.

Thanks for summary. I saw the headline and didn’t even want to click on it.

Seems like the least surprising news of the NFL offseason if it happens. It’d be good to have Colorado go back to the mean

All Utah needs is average offense to be competitive. With an average offense 2024 would have been different.

I am excited for the change in offensive philosophy and personnel. It feels needed. I think the coaching staff is going to be extra motivated to show that 2024 was a fluke. I think we will be pleasantly surprised.

My personal hope is that they win 7 games. Like others have said I am avoiding the kool aid.

You are correct! I heard a podcaster say that one of the adjustments for this team is that they aren’t used to playing in front of so many fans and aren’t used to having so much of the local media around during media sessions. In AZ, ASU’s hockey team got more fans in their shared 5,000 seat arena and the local media didn’t cover them as much. It could be the team puts extra pressure on themselves to perform at home because they feel the support from so many people. They are young and will continue to get better and the future looks bright for the Utah Hockey Club or whatever their name will be.

My hope is that they win a Stanley Cup before the Jazz win an NBA championship.

So good to see Guenther back. If Cooley and Durzi get back after the Four Nations break they still got a shot at the playoffs.

I love how he said he played at the “Team Down South.” That alone is encouraging that as a coach he is bought in. I am excited to see Beck’s offense and to see Whitt play as an underdog this year. I hope we are pleasantly surprised or maybe after 2024 expectations are so low that it won’t take much to be surprised next year.
