The Utah Hockey Club, still intending to unveil a new team name and branding next year, might have to pivot from not only the Yetis, but all six of the options it identified as finalists.
Shortly after an NBC affiliate in Utah reported the United States Patent and Trademark Office denied the franchise's efforts to trademark "Utah Yetis" due to popular cooler brand dubbed YETI, The Athletic's Chris Johnston noted the other five named finalists—Blizzard, Outlaws, Mammoth, Venom and Hockey Club—were also refused.
