Durzi is RH. He would slot 1st pairing, Valimaki (LH) drops to 2nd pair with Cole dropping to 3rd pairing with Kesselring
Been saying Yeti since before they got the Yote lets go Yeets 😂

Central looks a tough and competitive division along with Atlantic, I can see Utah finishing in a Wild Card spot if they can stay in the race or just short; hockeys back 🫶
I wouldn't be surprised if they made the playoffs. I don't think St. Louis and/or Winnipeg are impossible to pass for them
Doesn't look like a playoff team to me. Doesn't look like they can score enough to overcome any issues in the back end.
Either only just miss the playoffs, or only just sneak in, I think.
The Yeti would be an awful name
I like Hockey Club name
I think they are really missing a great name with the “Swarm”. It’s the Beehive State. Come on. That would be cool. What does “Yeti” have to do with Utah? It’s like Boston’s team being named “the Bruins”. 🤷♂️
Need a 1C to make the playoffs. Hayton isn’t him. Maybe Cooley steps up
It frustrates me that it looks like they’re not going to go with the Utah Raptors – I mean the name was right there!
Not ready Yeti but they will make the playoffs because it's good for busine$$ in the NHL!
Very much doubt they make the playoffs or even get close. Just doesn't feel like the team has enough oomph in any area of the ice, particularly not on offense.
For a hideous jersey team, out of the playoffs at Thanksgiving 😅
Keller and Macelli are among the most entertaining players in NHL
remember they r an nhl team….inherited a complete team and developmental system
Utah Yeti? As an old enough Avalance fan to remember Howler our once mascot get fired for fighting a fan, that would be dissapointing. Also as a native myself rather they use a native American term.
Yeti and Kraken are too similar mythical beings. I proposed Missionaires, knowing he Mormon influence, lol. I also like the Outlaws, but have a feeling that by next season Utah Hockey Club will be so vested that they will stick to it.
Hi, I'm Nobody Important in Hamilton. Utah, the name should be Apathy because nobody outside of Utah cares how they do.
Igor for Ingram Crouse and a puck. Who say no?
Actually, new jersey has points. 4 of them to be exact
Super excited for this season!
The only reason I could see them overturning the fan vote and not going with Yeti would be if there is some sort of legal issue with the name. But yeah best case scenario they make a wildcard bid for playoffs. They don't need to be great right away, we're just glad they're here.
Maybe …
Top six in the West were and still are DAL, WPG, VAN, COL, EDM, NASH …
And maybe VGK, LAK, STL, SEA and UTE battle for seventh and eighth?
Go Yotes!
Theyre in a brutal division
