Not sure if this factored in, but the abominable snowman mascot is already associated with the Avalanche.
Mammoth is a better alternative IMO, but why isn't it Mammoths?

Why would it be Mammoth and not Mammoths?
The plural of mammoth is mammoths.
Is this the WNBA

Just fold the team if they keep Hockey Club.

They got rid of Yeti and kept those names?
I thinkt he Trademark office said Utah Yeti was too generic and would cause confusions with other brands I .e. Yeti mugs and ice chest and shite.
which sounds crazy because who mistakes a hockey team for a thermals, but giving a trademark
on a name that was well established by another company is hard.

There's an indoor lacrosse team owned by Stan Kroenke called the Colorado Mammoth that has played in the National Lacrosse League since 2003 .
Why would a sports team being named the Yeti be any more confusing to a person then when other sports teams have the same name? Are people running around confusing Auburn, LSU, and Missouri?

The Avs have largely moved away from that branding, but you're right. They would have to basically give it up completely for Yeti to work for Utah.
I don't dislike Mammoth. But it does need another pop of color in there. Some graphic designers have included a bright yellow, which looks really good.

Wasatch is no longer an option. How does Utah Outlaws sound?
quote:
The Utah Hockey Club has removed "Utah Wasatch" from consideration for a new team name, replacing it with "Utah Outlaws" in fan voting.
On Wednesday, the first-year NHL team announced it would no longer move forward with "Yeti" or "Yetis" as its official nickname due to what the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office called the "likelihood of confusion" for consumers to other companies and brands that use the name. Utah HC unsuccessfully tried to broker a "coexistence agreement" with Yeti Coolers LLC to use the name.

Weird.
Wasatch is basically the equivalent of Colorado Rockies, which works.
Just go with Mammoth. Leave things like “hockey club” to the Euros.
