Sad Coyotes Fan, but I actually really like this guy. I don’t want to like him but I do. And that comment, “Your guys are good, they should work for NASA”! 😂 I’m officially a Utah fan.
Latter Day Skates
You're not getting the deserved amount of likes for this thread winner!
Ahh well done.
Latter* but absolutely agreed this comment needs far more love👏
There it is!, Gold.
Latter-day skates is the one that has given me the most pleasure. I love it.
Bro this guy is a Mormon being asked about smoking weed. He took it like a champ.
Medical weed is fine, coffee is not 🤣
😦😦😦😦
It's not your mom and dads Utah anymore things have changed, especially around SLC and the suburbs.
@bwilson6269 exactly. You can catch me smoking crack on the corner of Fort Union and 7th East.
Homeboy dropped out of highschool. I doubt he even went on mission
He was done with their ass towards the end 😂😂😂
For real 😂
Utah will mysteriously win the draft lottery this year
Gary Blackhawk Bettman won’t let that happen. Celebrini and Bedard will run the league like Sid n Geno did for 10 years.
@@shortypavolka3446 Celebrini is going to Anaheim
Nah they’ll just win the cup and bettman will cream his pants while presenting it to them
I moved to Utah in August last year...the utes have been amazing, march madness and now NHL?! Boy I got here just in time! It's been amazing
When the Jazz are doing good it's insane!!
They failed to mention he also owns a Major League Soccer team (Real Salt Lake) at 45 yr old too!!!
PARTIAL., and not majority
@@ZakhadWOWthat may be true but he’s still a co-owner. Not just a partial investor.
As an AZ Sports fan, it suck but our owner was terrible. Hopefully the team becomes better and treated better.
Feel sorry for you guys. If your owners won't spend money on the product then it's a hard sell and need a new stadium
@@rodneyhickman825 apparently we'll get the coyotes back in 2027 but I doubt it
@@cahl_n5262 It would be under Murello anyways. You guys wouldnt want that. I cant imagine he'd get that land and build that district by the books and it'll be a complete mess. The NHL just needs to bar that guy from ownership.
As a Coyotes fans its bittersweet but I cannot say enough about Smith. Seems like the perfect guy to take over the role and take care of our guys.
I personally like the Utah Phoenix
That would be kinda twisted.
A team reborn from its own ashes... Fingers crossed 🤞
Ryan Smith is easily the coolest owner in sports! Can’t wait for SLC to dominate the NHL!
You’re a blind sole. He’s dismantled the Jazz year after year. He’s a bum
Im an Av's fan (grew up in denver) I'm pumped for a Utah team. It's gonna be a nice fun new rivalry.
Also when you factor in Vegas, it creates a nice little rivalry between the three states. I'm so pumped for NHL in my home state! Been a Jazz fan all my life, but having another team to root for will be great! Go Utah!
Excited for a better rivalry between the rocky mountain cities
Hopefully this leads to some division realignment. Some teams and rivalries would benefit from readjusted travel scheduling.
we got rivalry with both Avs and Knights, being in the middle!
John stockton might make a comeback as a winger
John Stockton in the middle dishing out assists
@@mutantturtleninja❤❤😊
Stockton can only come back as a right winger.
Im so stoked for Utah hockey I'm definitely gonna be going to games and buying merch. I'm a huge fan of rsl and a small fan of the jazz but this is gonna be a game changer for utah
Salt Lake Soakers
Why do people think that’s a thing? LMAO.
Hahahahahahhahahahahah
@@iRunfastXCbecause it is dude 😂
Is that their cheerleaders only fans page?
*allegedly
As a Utahn I've been obsessed with the Utah Raptors name idea. There was an actual Utahraptor and to have dinosaur-themed hockey team in its owner would be so cool, I would drain all of my money on a dinosaur-themed jersey, especially for my home state.
Unfortunately Toronto already has the Raptors :(
@@theoswallisdifferent sport but I get it
Thats fine because theres the st louis cardinals and arizona cardinals so two teams can have the same name @theoswallis
@@WiddlPeppuwu-sx3rxi mean if you look up where they both got their names from..
We already have the Ogden raptors in Utah Go get that jersey
Rooting for him and Utah. This is an incredible feat
Ryan smith also owns a MLS team
Sight issues who cares, Montreal Forum had all kinds as it was the best rink ever!! Atmosphere is all that matters!! 💚💚💚🇨🇦 Let’s go Utah, give me a chance to help you guys out!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼😍😍😍
Same with the Aud in Buffalo. The place ROCKED!!
Call them the Utah Blades. 🙌🏾
The mountains behind him aren’t fake, I live right in the area and that’s mount timp lmao
Looks like he's in Provo right at the mouth of the canyon.
STFU!! Who cares
I was wondering if that was Timpanogos. I got the Wasatch in my west view
Bro it was a joke
Utah Soakers is the best name EVER! Logo is a sponge; alternate logo is a bed jumper.
I am in Utah, I was born in Utah, I have been here my entire life, and…yes this state has a quirky/bizarre/embarrassing mash up of religious beliefs, culture and history but, in spite of all of the above, there is a vibrant and increasingly diverse population developing here over the last 30+ years that is stoked for this opportunity to expand our support of professional sports teams in the state and I myself could not be more stoked about our new NHL team. Ryan Smith has been a huge boom for the sports fans in Utah. Cheers Ryan, keep up the radness my good man.
Should be Utah Pioneers, since those are the people who settled there.
Absolutely love that an owner is doing this. Hockey is alive bb!!!
What’s wrong with the Polygamists?
AJ laughing when Pat said "Utah-ian." 🤣
Hope we get a team in Houston. Loved watching the Houston Aeros play.
don't worry Mr. Smith - Bettman has been sinking resources to make things work in Phoenix for 30 years. I'm sure he'll see that you're as favored as Vegas to grow the fan base quickly.
This guy hit the jackpot. The yotes are probably playoff bond next year and have huge upside if for the few seasons after
They can but they'll need to spend some money on defense. So it'll be a good test to see if he does what he says with spending money on the team.
Pat, Utah has hockey since 1969, brought here by the Accord family. That was the Utah Golden Eagles. Utah has thousands of Golden Eagles, and hundreds of the Bald Eagle. Utah even named a Rec Ice Rink for the Olympics after the Accord family, in West Valley City. It would be great if this great team/state brought back the name of a huge predatorial bird as the Golden Eagles. And keep in mind, Utah has won cups with the Golden Eagles, and the now Grizzlies.
pat smoking at 12:34😂😂
UTAH YETIS
Main Logo - Y inside the U in broken Ice themed letters (like Cannucks broken ice) one Yeti eye either side of the Y.
Secondary Logo on shoulder of sweater-
Yeti skating with ice skates on holding a hockey stick
(like Pitt Penguins)
Colors - Main color is Dark Purple, ice blue, black, and white.
This is great for hockey . It truly a sport that more people need to be exposed to. Happy for the people of utah from a canadian .
SpongeBob as the logo
Ryan Smith is awesome! It’s gonna work. Call the Brinks truck and Bank it.
FINALLY got those boys outta the desert
No business having a NHL team in arizona
I will buy a Utah Yeti jersey and I’m a Capitals fan.
Never purchased another team jersey in my life (44 yo).
I won’t buy any other logo/mascot.
Let’s go Yeti!!!
Anything? How about leaving the southern Utah taxpayers out of his proposals.
Ding Dong! Who's there!? The Stormin' Mormons, Brother Smith!!
Coyotes fan here... Please keep this team together.... Take care of these players they're truly special and young stars and please don't ruin them like Alex did. I know you're a better owner but please for me and most if not all coyotes fans please get this team to playoffs
As a fellow Pittsburgher, I can hear pat’s accent so much. Wonder where he grew up
Utah Massacre
Renovation is such an L the jazz arena is one of the smallest in the nba. We need a new arena and this is the time! Renovation gone make it Even Smaller… come on Ryan.
No it’s not one of the smallest. It’s more in the middle to high end. Look it up. 18,306 for nba games. Sold out every game
@@Baughlin naa you look it up its the 9th smallest arena in the nba by capacity and if they renovate it for the nhl it will drop to a top 5 smallest arena for sure with 17k
Yotes were playing at a 5k college arena. 16k is a lot better
@@valitsemllaluokanavahyvaks3556 thats why theyre a failed franchise dont compare to the worst
As a true Utahn, well done 👏
Yeti, Raptors, Stags
Salt Lake Locomotive!
The Utah blades
Excited to see how this new team develops! And curious to know the name suggestions.
Ryan needs to buy the pirates asap...🍻
And move them to Utah.
@@JonDoe-ln6nl yes that way we can get a new franchise here with new/good ownership of what once was a great pirate team.
That would be sick!! The last of the big 4 sports that Utah can actually get. Utah is never getting a NFL team for obvious reasons.
I submitted The 'Utah Buzz'. Its the beehive state, double zz's like the Jazz...marketing "let's get Buzzed everywhere...come on thats a no brainer...
Utah Stingers! Beehive state, honeybee is the State insect, athletes hate ‘stingers’ and pros hate Utah because of our faithful, angry, and obnoxiously loud’swarm’ of fans. The arena would be ‘the Hive’ and fans would be ‘the Swarm’!
Utah Buzz
Or Utah Sting... like the OHLS Sarnia Sting
Ryan smith is a good dude
Been a coyotes fan since 2010. Im rooting for this team now. If the yotes come back ill come back.
Guy definitely puts that hat on for the show
Go Jets Go!
“It’s not relocation” proceeds to describe relocation of a team
They need to sign an affiliation with Tim Tebow's ECHL team now
Umm, why?
@@JonDoe-ln6nl, not sure if your really asking but, the night monsters start their first season as a team next year. And the coyotes were one of only 4 teams without an ECHL affiliate. So the question really is why not
Utahs NHL teams name should be The Sting... like the OHLs Sarnia Sting, and we are the Beehive State,
“ Utah Outlaws “…… Let’s goooooo
As a Utah Grizzlies fan for 25+ years im beyond excited, still cant believe we are getting an NHL team, its basically my first thought everyday when I open my eyes. Sucks i wont be able to afford going to many games with two young kids as i scrape by, but we will find a way for a game or two!
Let's get a NFL team in Utah
“You’re getting soakers whether you Iike it or not” 💀💀💀
Utah Yeti's sounds fire
I was gonna say this. Maybe the snowmen
Salt Lake Copper, Mascott Be Coyote Named Copper, The Jazz Have Bear we are know for having the biggest copper mine in the world!
Make a deal with Pat that if he comes out and does a live show, he gets to have a hand in the itinerary.
The Jerry jones of the nba now has a nhl team. He’s all about the $$$
bro really said soakers 😭
The Salt Lake Frosties
Utah Jazz/ Utah Rock - use the mountains as part of the logo, could still have a Yeti as a mascot, check out the Toronto Rock jerseys for national lacrosse league
I'd agree if Jazz wasn't the worst team name in sports. It wasn't even coined in Utah. They took it from New Orleans when the team moved.
Bruh the worst? I'm from Indiana we have the PACERS and the colts. Literally a car that starts a race 🏁 and a baby horse. Jazz is not that bad
Very good suggestion, haven’t seen that one before
Yeti would be ok but theres no such thing as Yetis
@blakegebler6989 Those are bad names yes, but you're probably biased because you live there. My favourite team is the Maple Leafs, not a great name either.
I like cheese and dogs for some reason.
The Rebellion would be a cool name The Utah Rebellion
The Salt Lake Skinwalkers!!!! MAKE IT HAPPEN!
Hahaha- I said the Jackalopes and I was literally about to comment again and say the skinwalkers 😂😂😂
Soakers is by far the best name
how is this not a relocation?
Because the Arizona Coyotes franchise still exists, it's just going inactive. A brand new franchise was formed with Utah purchasing the assets from the Coyotes. Like he mentioned, it's a pretty weird deal.
Salt Lake Stormin Mormons
Holy WAP Bots
Wouldn't it WALDS
LoL I hope they keep coyotes name like the Jazz did.
the owner of the Coyotes kept the name he cant name them coyotes
Nevertheless Utah Phoenix would work too
Let’s go super soakers let’s go ! 👏🏻 👏🏻
Utah Yellowjackets!
Salt Lake Stingers.
Or The Sting
@@davidteams4326 ohhh the Salt Lake Sting! I like it!
But you know what they’ll be saying if they suck right. . .
The Salt Lake Stink.
I used to live in Salt Lake and I have no doubt the new hockey team will do great
Utah grizzlies like we had years ago
WE? We still have the grizzlies...they are an echl team, have been for 25+ years
@@ThisIsSpartttaaaIncorrect, the Grizzlies have not been an ECHL team for 25+ years. They were an IHL team, AHL team, and now ECHL team.
And I sure hope they don't get pushed out by all this.
@@pagejames8754if anything this will expose more people to hockey and may bring in a bigger crowd.
@@pagejames8754 They 100% will, there's zero chance SLC can support two teams.
@@jstucklessthey absolutely can support two teams in two different leagues. They play in different arenas and they can become affiliated with each other and another ahl team and be more connected in the community so it's 100% possible to have two teams
If you wanted to sneak it past the mormon goalies. You would have to call them the utah south oaks, abbreviated utah S.oaks.
...nobody thought Vegas would work? Doesn't he know the "house" always wins?!
Soaking up the cup.
The Utah Blizzard 🥶
But Gary said Zona was doing great...
I can never figure out what AJ Stokes brings to the show but nod his head from time to time .
The Utah Yeets
Utah Buzz. Anything but Yetis
The Utah Magical Long Johns🥼
bet money they become the Salt Lake Stingers
Baseball team is the Bees (fka Stingers, fka Buzz.) Don't need to copy that
Has to be the Yetis
As a leafs fan im happy for em go get em ryan....utah unicorns
Tbh I wouldn't mind the name staying the Coyotes. Cool name, colors, and jerseys
They can’t
The Utah sister wives.
Utah Soakers is a good team name
The CoyUtes
Salt Lake Stingers, welcome to the Hive
Salt Lake Stingers.
Utah Mountaineers
Get nhl owner Marshawn Lynch in too
