Utah Mammoth History

As early as 2023, Salt Lake City was named a potential NHL destination, with the Arizona Coyotes’ future looking increasingly uncertain after a proposed new arena in Arizona was rejected. Instead, Ryan Smith, owner of the NBA’s Utah Jazz, petitioned for the NHL to expand to Salt Lake City. In April 2024, the NHL approved the Coyotes’ relocation. Smith acquired the Coyotes’ hockey assets, including players, coaching staff, and draft picks. On April 18, the team was officially established. For their inaugural 2024-25 season, they will play with a temporary name, Utah Hockey Club, and colors. On May 7th, 2025, they announced their new name, Utah Mammoth, and their new logo.
