Unveiling the New Utah Hockey Club: Colors, Logo, and Jerseys for the 2024-25 Season
The Utah Hockey Club has officially unveiled its color scheme, logo, and jerseys for its much-anticipated inaugural season in 2024-25. After relocating from Arizona, the team has embraced a design aesthetic that reflects Utah's unique landscape, incorporating primary and secondary colors that resonate with the state's natural beauty and rugged terrain. While the team is making its debut under the moniker "Utah Hockey Club," a more permanent rebrand is in the pipeline for the 2025-26 season and beyond.
New Color Scheme
The team has chosen a distinctive color palette: "rock black," "salt white," and "mountain blue." These hues have been selected to encapsulate the essence of Utah’s natural beauty.
The club's logo is keeping things simple for now, utilizing variations of the "Utah Hockey Club" name, including designs that feature the state of Utah. Notably, these chosen colors are set to remain even after the new team name is finalized, currently being decided by a fan vote.
According to team representatives, "The new team colors—'rock black,' 'salt white,' and 'mountain blue'—perfectly encapsulate the spirit of Utah's rugged landscape."
Jersey Designs
When it comes to the uniforms, simplicity and tradition are the themes. The home sweater will feature black as the primary color, with "UTAH" spelled out diagonally. For away games, the jersey follows the same design but adopts white as the primary color. This diagonal text format is well-known in the league, famously employed by the New York Rangers. It has also been used by the Carolina Hurricanes, Pittsburgh Penguins, and Vegas Golden Knights in their alternate uniforms.
"While the interim name 'Utah Hockey Club' and the simple 'UTAH' diagonal text on the jerseys keep things straightforward and rooted in tradition, these elements provide a solid foundation for the team's future identity," noted team officials.
Upcoming Rebrand
As the team gears up for its first season in Utah, there’s significant buzz surrounding its permanent rebrand. Fan participation plays a crucial role in this process, with the team hosting a fan vote to determine its new name—the voting is set to conclude on June 20. Finalists in the naming contest include Blizzard, Mammoth, Outlaws, Venom, and Yeti, along with the option to retain the current moniker, Utah Hockey Club.
The community-driven approach to the rebrand underscores the organization’s commitment to building a strong, local fan base from the outset. "Utah is eagerly anticipating the conclusion of the fan vote and looks forward to unveiling its new permanent brand, which will undoubtedly evoke the passion and spirit of the community," a team representative said.
This transitional period is pivotal for the Utah Hockey Club as it prepares for its debut season. There's a palpable sense of excitement among fans and players alike as the team’s future begins to take shape.
