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 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.

"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

Reminds me of the Sabres logo on the left.

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

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

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

[–] TwistedCister@lemm.ee 2 points 3 days ago

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!

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

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

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

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