I have not heard one iota about season tickets going on sale. Is Smith selling them to just his rich friends? GET THE INFO OUT! BAD START Ryan Smith!

​@@meddyventhe info was out there pretty quick. I reached out to jazz season ticket office on Friday - rep sent me a notice the minute the page went live this afternoon 🤷‍♂️

They already put the info out you just live under a rock

@@meddyvenCall the Delta center ticket office.

@@meddyven bro just look up Utah NHL deposit on google. Pops right up.

Because he spent $1.2 billion.

Unfortunately NHL will (never) go back to the desert.......

@@crow_2k11beatsbydre8 YOUR OUTTA YOUR GORD! Obviously you have no knowledge of what you speak.

I’m sorry for your team leaving the desert. Thanks for supporting them throughout these years and hopefully you can continue to support them on their new journey. And hopefully how they are treated here in Utah will make you Arizona fans proud of your team.

@@elosogonzalez8739 Just because the Coyotes name remains "means nothing" Plenty of other US/Canadians cites ready for expansion like Houston, Quebec, Kansas City even Toronto. Atlanta won't get another chance and hockey in the desert is gone........

@@crow_2k11beatsbydre8 Stay tuned. Bettman wants 36 teams in the league, it's inevitable that expansion is in the future.Everything I've heard that the NHL will grant a franchise IF MERUELO 1.) WINS THE LAND AUCTION ON JUNE 27TH 2.) BREAKS GROUND BY A CERTAIN DATE 3.) SHOWS BUILDING PROGRESS. Then he will then be qualified by the NHL. ALOT OF BIG IF'S! Personally I don't think he'll be there for the auction. I think he'll take his money and skip outta town and never show his face in Arizona again.

I'm from Minnesota DL (DETROIT LAKES)

lol he’s hanging onto that remaining hair for dear life

He deff looks jazzed 🪈 🎵

@@brandonfrazierstan as a bald man that was my same thought lol

Becareful eeh, b/c of the NHL Jets will future relocate from Winnipeg to Houston; Kansas City; Milwaukee; or Indianapolis.

@@cjhan9816 Ya none of whom made a bid for the Thrashers when they were for sale dirt cheap. If those cities wanted a team they would've had one by now.Milwaukee blew their chance a long time ago and the NHL already has their fan base in Chicago and Minnesota. Kansas City didn't want the Penguins. Houston and Indianapolis don't want a team.

@@cjhan9816nope the jets are not going anywhere, going to take a coyote level collapse for that. Houston, Atlanta. Quebec and Kansas will all get teams but by expansion. Teams will be at 36 by 2038 mark my word

@@wizzerwiser2056: Negative, b/c of NHL Penguins got approved a new arena to stay in Pittsburgh. If Pittsburgh had not got one built, then Penguins would have relocated for Kansas City. Kansas City is still hungry to obtain an NHL team. Milwaukee had an old arena until late 2010s to construct a new arena into both NBA & NHL specifics. Indianapolis will renovate its sports arena upon both NBA & NHL specifics. Houston has now NBA Rockets owner, who is interested to lure an future NHL team maybe the NHL Jets. Yes, all 4 🇺🇸 major cities are going to have future NHL teams. Unfortunately, Winnipeg is not future sustainable due to its metro population size of 750K & little corporate industries as a rust belt city of the Great White North.

@@hypehky5326: We shall see by NHL Jets future sustainability in WPG. Negative on Q/C due to its Francophone militant separatists & lack of corporate industries.

How about blame the old Jets ownership for not being competent? Phoenix didn’t do anything to take the Jets.

@@andrewheitmeyer9945 that might be true, but Winnipeg lost their team due to having a old arena and the exchange rate between the Canadian and U.S. dollar. That is the same reason Quebec lost the Nordiques. Winnipeg and Quebec did not play in college hockey arenas nor did they take large player contracts. Arizona got their team through relocation, got kicked out of two NHL arena for non payment for the lease and Arizona made no attempt to improve the team. This sounds like the NHL version of the Oakland A’s. Arizona lost their team to incompetent ownership. Now Meruello wants to build a new arena and entertainment district in Reno to bring in a minor league hockey team. As quietly as seems, his endgame is to get that arena built in Reno and relocate the Tucson Roadrunners there. To me, hockey is dead in Arizona. Meruello doesn’t have enough money to build a new arena in Reno and Arizona without public support. Arizona hockey fans deserve better

I think speculation is utah cutthroats, as cutthroat trouts

All of these pale in comparison to the Utah Saints. Nothing wrong with a respectful nod to christianity.

​@@westonteece7709 i like this one too. Fish logos are cool

That would be siiick

Exactly. The Yeti is such a stupid name for an NHL team

Move a lot of merch though lol

Kraken is an awesome name. Yeti, ehhhhh not so much.

They can't go wrong with the Golden Eagles. The old minor league name. Does anyone remember the rivalry between them and the Roadrunners? Don't remember what year but it was Thanksgiving at the Madhouse on McDowell. Clear the bench brawl. Literally. Everyone was on the ice. Complete bedlam. The minors are great, old bitter players on the way out, young up and comers trying to make the show. Volatile recipe.

Kraken is awesome

Spikes would be cool

That’s a good one. Im afraid they’ll come up with some lame Bee references since it’s the Beehive state.

That's not bad actually lol

That’s the sickest one I’ve heard

@@dustinkingsbury5554nah the utah yetis sounds way better. spikes lame af

As a Utah native, I'm willing to bet a sold out arena first home game. Jazz games are almost always sold out to put into perspective, and I think there's opportunity for a lot of folks here to start enjoying the sport more than ever.

yup and then the people who put 100 down will spend the 1k 5k ect. for packages. they'll fork over the rest

@@highlghtreelgobolts2895 well I’m a CA coyotes fan so I guess I’ll be getting flight tickets to SLC in a season or two. Gotta see if I feel the same connection after the move.

nope there staying NHL social media pages posted a breakdown

Ethan, could you sound like you are from Utah any more?

Predators vs Miners doesnt sound right

How about the "Lakers"? Because of Salt Lake...

@@TheHeston83 😂

Miners vs Predators... probably a no go.

Utah Bighorns

We adopted the Knights as our favorite team when they announced. When I told them we were getting an NHL team they said, "do we have to change our favorite team?" Lol.

Worst name

No shit, it’s definitely and old boys club in the nhl for sure

@@Steveoh1983 yeah if he could tell my teams owners The Kronekes(Comcast Deal) & The Samuelis(Return to A Classic Look) to innovate I'm all for it .

@@TheHeston83 Ducks and Avs? When you turn 18 time to pick 1!

@@Steveoh1983 The only issue is this guys from Utah so he's probably an old soul at heart and it's probably why the NHL owners are happy with him. Young enough to inject some youthful vigour but not brash enough that he's going to shake the applecart too much lol

@@mrgreekgm754 there is no rule saying you cant like more than 1 hockey team stop gatekeeping be a fan of since of both 2003 I'm in my 30's. Chris Smith of Icethletics is fan of the Lightning and Kraken.

Winnipeg was pretty fast lol. They actually wanted to retain the AHL team the Manitoba Moose but the fan pressure forced them to revert to the Jets. Smith has known for awhile he'd get a team so I think they probably already have a good idea of what their branding will be

The NBA would be cheesed and Lebron James would throw a social media hissy fit

Our colors are 💩 rn and everyone here hates the lakers😂

@@HenryHoolington There doesn’t seem to be a Problem with Franchises in both the NBA and NHL having the name “KINGS”. LeBron James is a phony anyway, He use to wear the NY Yankees Cap then cheered the Cleveland Indians in the 2016 World Series and Now He’s all about the LA Dodgers.

They need purple as a main 💜 color 💯

I remember when the Jazz moved from New Orleans. I was astounded when they kept the name. When you think Jazz, you really don't think Salt Lake City. As far as the yotes. There are a number of reasons they were doomed to fail when they came from Winnipeg. Why did they not do whatever it would take to keep the hall of famer Teemu Selanne? Instead they unloaded him just prior for the cash flow. After a short stay downtown at an arena that was not the best for hockey, they decided on Glendale. Far west of the hockey demographic that predominantly lives in the east valley. All the folks who transplanted from Chicago or Michigan and including as far upper Midwest as Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba seem to have mostly landed in Mesa, Scottsdale, Chandler, A J. and Gilbert. Season ticket holder ship dropped every year since the move to Glendale. On a week night, for a 7 p.m. puck drop, the drive over on I-10 was a big factor in people not renewing. Brutal, right in the middle of rush hour. If there was an accident, you're not going to make the national anthem. If you announced that there would be an international friendly soccer match featuring Mexico and Honduras, next Tuesday at State farm Stadium, you could sell 70,000 tickets no problem. Hockey? Not so much with the west side. They experimented with the Great One as coach for a bit. Great player, not a great coach. Just ask yourself this question, why didn't he continue coaching? Hence, experiment. Lastly, in a lot of native American mythology, the Coyote is the Charlie Brown of the animal kingdom. Uncannily like the Warner Bros character Wile E. See for reference, Coyote stories, a compilation of the stories our Navajo grandfathers would tell us when we were kids. In taking that name to begin with, they may have cursed the whole endeavor. Just saying. Not that hockey players would have any eccentric superstitions.

Just Look at REAL SALT LAKE and Utah Jazz popularity in Utah Ryan Smith has done a very great job so far and he has passion for his teams. Yes he actually one of the Co- Owner of our Soccer Team as well here in Utah Noone thought that would be successful but look at it now. Utah Grizzlies (Not Own Smith ) but does very very well also big fan been to a lot of their Hockey games can wait to support Utah NHL and Utah Grizzlies (EHL). Here, some of My Names Arches Raptors (Utah Raptor/Red Raptor) Golden Spike (National Historical Monument ) Skinwalkers (Skinwalker Ranch) Wolves Jackalopes Bats and more Staying away from all the stupid Morman/LDS jokes we heard many and many times that they actually gotten very old fast we are more than just That Morman State.

I hope not, it at least they have actual plans and funding to build a hockey arena unlike Arizona. They have already been given $900 million in funding to build a new arena. Smith has talked about plans to build an arena dedicated to hockey and using the delta center as a temporary arena for the team. Also they have already sold over 12,000 $100 deposits for season tickets which opened this morning. Which I doubt all of these deposits will go through but I’m sure a large chunk of them will.

no there in much better spot also The Delta Center is an upgrade over the Mulett

@@jaydenpaxton457 honestly I would of preferred the NHL to force a Arizona ownership change and just give Utah a expansion team

L take

Olympians is better.

@@mr.brenman2132 better but still what the hell does Utah have to do with Greek culture???

@@SkylineRising They literally have a Mount Olympus and have hosted the winter Olympics. They still have all of their Olympic facilities in use and are close to hosting the 2034 winter Olympics.

Shut up idiot

PKP won't write a cheque the size the NHL wants. He had a chance to write a check half the size in 2016 and he didn't (or couldn't).

Adderall addict.

But his bank account though My dude is worth over 3 billion, no wonder why the Nhl is welcoming him with open arms. But For the love of God God the body in Az wasn’t even cold !

And who is your source???? Nothing on local media about where to call, etc.

I would love that, except is too close to the Golden Knights just down the road in Vegas…

Apparently had a Hockey team with that name a while back, nice logo!

???

@@dallen9403 never been to Utah huh?

@@Captndarty Ha nah I live in Utah. Just wondering what you mean by real beer? Are you referring to the alcohol % being lower in beer because they did away with that a few years ago.

@@dallen9403 beer, stronger than 5% ABV

The Arizona guy still owns the rights to the Coyotes.

Can’t name them the coyotes, the old owner kept the naming rights of the coyotes, they legally have to name it something different.

@jaydenpaxton457 i have read that but why didn't the league just approve an expansion team for you people.. Instead of buying up another team..and relocating them..throwing out the last 27 years.

@@LAKingsFan90 The 27 years of History will remain for the Coyotes once they reboot in 2-3 years. The Coyotes were holding the League back also if 1 of 31 of the teams arent turning a profit its bad for the league its for the best.

My highschool was the mountaineers...I like that!

Nah, Utahns hate the Lakers😂

The Arizona guys still owns the rights to the Coyote name

Utah Saints. There you go!

@@v8rumble123: Ladder Day Saints has a better nickname.

2.8 million

Too close to the Golden Knights just down the road in Vegas…

You can tell man has gotten no sleep, the old owner of the coyotes said he hasn’t gotten much sleep working out the deal for the past couple days and I’m sure it’s the same for Ryan. Don’t need to be so judgmental.

A lot of wealthy people are the cheapest people you'll meet (that's how they stay rich lol). And he's a billionaire so he doesn't have to dress to please anyone lol

You haven’t been to Utah have you 😂

@@JJH-jc1fg I meant Utah over Arizona. Sorry didn’t specify completely. I lived at the U for four years. From New England. I’ll take Utah’s dry desert snow any day. Not that cold, I was wearing shorts till December and back again in early March.

They’ve sold 6k season ticket deposits in 2 hrs. All over Utah news. It’s actually hilarious that outsiders don’t think hockey will be successful in Utah.

They literally announced it on their socials earlier today 😂🤦🏻‍♂️

Deposits. Public website. I already reserved mine.

They announced it on the jazz app, and all over the news. People in Utah love sports if it wasn’t evident with their push to get as many large sports teams as possible in the state.

Ryan smith reported 11,000 season ticket down payments made about 2 hours ago.

L take.

Ur grammar is a complete joke. “They remind me of of”. I’m glad you’re not a fan of this team too.

Hopefully that’ll change in Utah since they already have funding to build a dedicated stadium and Ryan has expressed desire to build a stadium just for the hockey team.

You’re a joke 😂
