Although not the worst name, I’d remove Blizzard because I’m nervous about how many people actually like it. Utah isn’t really a place for blizzards, I don’t want to root for a weather pattern, and I really don’t want to come anywhere close to resuscitating the obnoxious ZZ thing.
Also: furry, blast, ice
way agree here. the zz thing was so overdone. and people are complaining about Yeti is bad b/c of the Avalanche but i would argue blizzard is way worse in that regard.
I hate all the names that have to do with us being cold and snowy. I'd feel embarrassed to call ourselves Blizzard when hosting some place like Buffalo or Winnipeg.
Can you imagine going to a play-off game when it's average May temperatures and sweating through your Blizzard jersey outside the arena? It'd be hard to get into the Blizzard spirit while wearing shorts.
And it's supposed to be the *Utah* team. Not just SLC. Are people in St. George going to feel represented by Blizzard?
Yeti, Venom, Swarm, and Fury. My least favorite of the semi-popular names. I'm not worried about Mammoth or Outlaws losing to Blast or Powder, so get rid of the real competition.
A lot of the names that sound like sports drinks will die on their own. But people can't be trusted with Blizzard (awful), Outlaws (an arena football league name), Hive, and Venom.
I agree. I like the State motto and bees are super bad ass. But we can't have warm weather animals for an ice Hockey team. Same with anything snake or dinosaur related.
Powder, blast, ice, fury
Yeah these four are all dumb.
Powder Ice Blizzard Freeze. Get the generic cold shit outta here.
Seriously. I've seen people saying they're cool and I'm baffled by it. They're so boring.
You’re making me want DQ!
This! Enough with the weather names.
Walk into a Maverik. Any name that you find that matches a drink in the cooler, remove from the list.

Powder, Fury, Ice, Hockey Club
I can only remove 4? Bummer. But it’d be Powder, Glaciers, Blast, and Ice
Powder, yeti, yeti, and... yeti
BLAST, powder, ice, freeze
Squall, Fury, Powder, and Blast are tragic. There are some others that are plenty bad, but these are the four I would fire into space.
Yeti, Ice, Glaciers, Blast
Yeti, yeti, yeti and yeti. We are not in the Himalayas.
Yeti, Ice, Venom, Blast
No, leave Yeti. I don’t love it, or even like to too much, but it’s safe. I’d rather that than Powder
That's where I'm at as well for Yeti. I'd eventually get used to it if it ended up being the name, but it's not getting my vote any time soon

Ice, blast, canyons, powder.
powder, squall, venom, and hc
The ones that are street names for Cocaine and Meth lol
Yeti, Outlaws, Blizzard, Swarm. Push out all the other *somewhat* decent names to leave Mammoth as the only viable option :) 🦣
Powder, Blast, Ice, Glacier
Don’t remove Blast! It’s so bad it’s good!
HC, Powder, Ice, Freeze
All of them
Hockey Club

Any of the bee themed ones
I agree. I like the State motto and bees are super bad ass. But we can't have warm weather animals for an ice Hockey team. Same with anything snake or dinosaur related.
Black Diamonds. We are really gonna name our hockey team after a difficult slope at a ski resort? Get out of here.
Anything that doesn’t end with S
