As you may know, the Arizona Coyotes are on 'hiatus' and all their poo poo is moving to Salt Lake City, UT. Here is a thread to discuss:
a) Mormon jokes
b) Ideas for colors/name
c) Expansion chat
d) The future of the past (Coyotes and the 72-96 Jets)

Og Jets history needs to go back to Winnipeg. Utah has no want or need for it.

The Utah Teamnames will be in the conference final by 2029.

As a drum & bass fan, it'd be cool to have the Utah Saints. They aren't using it.

Ha this is what I’ve been saying too. First of all it’s a baller name, second they can then spend the money on getting a rad goal song that’ll have everyone chanting their team name. It’s a slam dunk (wrong sport)

The current Jets have already been acting as if they hold the early jets history, with the retro jerseys, retiring Selanne and Numinen numbers and a Dale Hawerchuk statue

As much as nobody here cares about the Thrashers' history, I'm pretty sure Dan Snyder's family would mind if they dumped it.

They did not - in fact, had the NHL not owned the Coyotes in 2011, the Jets might not have been able to finagle the rights to the name "Winnipeg Jets".

The Kraken retired the number 32 in honor of the 32,000 fans that signed up for season tickets, necessitating a wait list.

Today they're struggling to get renewals from said STHs lol, these numbers mean nothing.

FYI: NHL Rules requires a team name to be 3 words or less

Joke Answer: Utah Golden Plates (Vegas obviously makes it a no-go)

More realistic answer: Utah Honeybees assuming the AAA team (Bees) doesn't object

I vaguely recall that bit of info coming up when Seattle entered the league though I haven't seen corroborating evidence. As for the Ducks, even if that rule existed then Disney was more than willing to walk away if they didn't get what they wanted

In all likelihood

It also explains why the Las in Las Vegas was lopped off when the Golden Knights were formed compared to the Raiders moving there

Foley claimed he dropped the Las cause noone in Vegas actually calls it Las Vegas, they all call it Vegas.

"Salt Lake ___" would've been a possibility, but I'd imagine it's the owner's desire to go with "Utah ___" for his collection of sports teams anyway.

that's what I heard, too. would be strange to have a 3-word rule. not sure what the point would be (not that this has famously stopped the NHL from doing anything)

You could say "Jets history" to refer to the two iterations of the team together, and "franchise history" to refer to the Thrashers + modern Jets.
