Man, those are some lame names. 

Utah being the Beehive State seems like it would offer some interesting options. 

I've seen Mammoth as a possibility. I've warmed up to that name. No elephant mascots in any pro sports right now. But yeah, those other names stink.

The obvious name is the Utah Buzz; it fits with the bee theme and aligns with the NBA Utah Jazz name.

The Colorado Mammoth are a National Lacrosse League team, they played Buffalo for the championship last season.

Meruelo is a delusional narcissist that won't admit defeat despite his ineptitude and toxicity.  He'll pretend he still owns a franchise with zero hockey being played.  He still thinks he's the lone savior despite everyone and everything in Arizona refusing to work with him.

The NHL is simpler: it's always money.  They can get Meruelo an expansion team or a moved team for him.  Or they can plug in a expansion team into Arizona with a different owner and then either buy the IP rights back from Meruelo or just plug in a non-Coyotes franchise without the rights.  They don't give a *****.  Money over everything.

Yeah, I thought about giving someone else a franchise and letting him sell the naming rights to the new owner for something stupid like a hundred mill.

Will Salt Lake City have a new team name? 

In short, yes.  The former owner, Meruelo, owns the rights to the Coyotes name and logos.
