If the Arizona Coyotes become Salt Lake City’s NHL team, as has been reported to be a real possibility, what should they be called? No judgment, we’re just brainstorming here.

The Utah Grizzlies host the Rapid City Rush, ECHL hockey at the Maverik Center in West Valley City on Saturday, Jan. 27, 2024., what should they be called? What’s the name? The Salt Lake … What? Here are some suggestions, divided into groups — animals, things, people. No judgment, we’re just brainstorming here:1. Specters. In hockey, it’s worthwhile to frighten your opponents. What’s scarier than a ghost? Plus, Specter has nice alliteration with Salt Lake. We’re big on alliteration on this list.

5. Skinwalkers. Scary shapeshifters. A bit too scary from Native American folklore. Alliteration, though.7. Freeze. The Salt Lake Freeze. Why not?10. Icebreakers. Grew up a Broad Street Bullies fan, so … We’ll break yo’ ice. We’ll break yo’ face.12. Blade Runners. Never saw the movie. But … because hockey players run on blades.15. Pioneers. Fuhgeddaboutit. Don’t go there, hockey can’t be played in boots and bonnets.17. Jacks.

35. Porcupines. I’ve played a lot of hockey, and nobody on the ice wants anything to do with this prickly creature.37. Goats. Who in sports doesn’t want to be called the greatest of all time?39. Sandpipers. Some 34 species or allies of this bird have been observed in Utah. The spotted variety hang out around the Great Salt Lake. Alliteration.

43. Cinnamon Bears. Yeah, they’re a real animal right here in Utah , not just a candy. A subspecies of the American black bear.
