The slight pattern is enough for me to think that it has enough uniqueness. I like it. The black gives it some weight. Never liked the red heavy and white look (with the bland numbers) they went with with those jerseys in the early to mid 2010s. Quote I'm Danny fkn Heatley, I play for myself.

spartacat_12 Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Ryan Smith has just shared a survey asking people to submit name suggestions for a potential Utah NHL franchise: Among the names being mentioned in the replies, not very many catch my attention. Blizzards seems like the best option, but of course most of the people suggesting it seem to just want to use the singular 'Blizzard'. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LMU Posted April 8 Author Share Posted April 8 Blizzards meets the quota of Zees/Zeds in a Utah team name so that checks. Although, something to be said for the southwest and teams naming themselves after a lower-ranked version of their closest rival. Already Kings? Throw in the Knights next door. Already a team named for snow rolling down a hill? Name the team after snow falling from the sky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krona Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 I submitted Oxen, Unique, region appropriate, a variety of ways to go thematically (pioneers, tough aggro, stoic, single or a team). Utah Oxen rolls off the tongue in a pleasant, sing-songy way. "the Ox" is a nice sub-nickname, too. And lets get a primarily brown colored hockey team!
