#NHL
Nine months later and the Coyotes are moving to Salt Lake. Video has aged like fine wine.
thats crazy.
Should write for the Simpsons
He had to have had insider information to know that
Except that almost everyone named them Salt Lake City.. something now knowing it’s gonna be Utah
Thanks for running the contest! Sucks to end up second with my Yeti design but we will be back
Your design was awesome
Amazing submission and name
The fact that the logo of the winner glows under UV light is such an intelligent decision based on the biology of actual scorpions. Great job!
I honestly liked the Yeti concept more than the Scorpions concept, and the fact that it’s hand drawn is impressive. The color purple is well known within the state of Utah and the concept reminds me of the 1997 Utah Jazz jerseys, which is really cool. I love the alternate logo that would go on the shoulder patch. This is all my opinion but I think the Yeti concept should’ve won 1st place.
Thanks for the appreciation, that was my design! Was really inspired by the Jazz look and knowing the owners of the two teams wanted to be the same I wanted some relation
@@alimurji1480man I wish your design won because it is flawless, easily my favorite one! I hope to see more of your concepts in the future 👍🏻
@@alimurji1480 dude I sent your Yeti jersey to my friends and they all agree it should've won and that it looks so sick.
Salt Lake Sasquatch, though I think they'll use Utah not SLC
Very good design and well drawn. I felt it was too similar to the former Kootany/Edmonton Ice of the WHL, but some cool tweaks to fit the SLC area.
The Utah Yeti is awesome. It is rough for sure but with a touch up it would be an awesome Jersey. I also love the colors of the Utah Elk(red/copper).
I love the Scorpions for the Arizona Coyotes tie in. "Scorpions" was 2nd place in the original "name the Phoenix hockey team" contest that "Coyotes" won. The moment you pulled up the design I thought, "that will be my pick for the winner..." Sure enough, it was, and then it was yours too! I can't believe I got 5th either! I fully agree the name doesn't roll off the tongue. Way more praise for the design than I expected! Thank you for the feedback!
I say this without reservation or fear of contradiction these are the best group of contest entries i have seen.
i made a design in NHL 23, i named them the utah stingers. a bit of a double entendre, as a stinger is on a bee, utah is known as the beehive state, but also northern utah is really known for their air force base, and there is a military plane called the FIM-92 stinger. the colors would’ve been the royal blue and gold that the air force uses.
Thanks Neil! I narrowed down the name to the Scorpions from a list that included names like Raptors, Saints, Swarm, Sting/Stingers and Seagulls. It's interesting that other people came up with the same names but ultimately chose Scorpions because it really doesn't exist any where else in pro sports. I made sketches for all these names but Scorpions came together naturally. In terms of the UV glow of the jersey, I thought it would be a cool idea for warm-up or after a goal. Also, using UV lights over the crowd would be cool and intimating to see a bunch of glowing scorpions staring back at the visiting team.
Mine was the 2nd Utah Elk one at 21:59! Thanks so much for the contest had a great time!
looks to much like the Milwaukee Bucks
Utahn here. Wish I'd known about this contest, I would've loved to take part. Some context for a few of the design choices. Bee themes: Utah is known as the "Beehive State" so there's no surprise the idea seeped into a lot of the designs. Vipers: The Salt Lake Golden Eagles moved to Detroit in 1994 to become the Detroit Vipers, so this brings it full circle in a sense. There should have been more green: The most iconic look of the Salt Lake Golden Eagles was based on a Kelly Green foundation. 16:43: That shoulder patch is based on the new state flag, which could do the branding work for any potential Utah team by itself. Utah Yeti: DEEP roots in the late 90s Jazz branding here. I like it. I took my own crack at it a few years ago in a sort of front office thought experiment with the "Utah Eagles", and while the color scheme didn't quite work, I minimalized it in a later reprisal to a simpler black/white/yellow scheme (to match the Jazz of today) that ended up working really well, then implemented the Kelly Green for the 3rds. I know it wouldn't have qualified for this contest since it was entirely constructed with the design tools in EA NHL, but I'm still pretty proud of it. I explain it at greater length here, just a few games into the project: kzhead.info/sun/p6yCoLWGaKJ-mJs/bejne.html Edit: Fixed the link to the right video. Original link went to my thoughts on the advantages and disadvantages an NHL team would face in SLC instead of the branding.
Congrats on the new NHL team homie
I love all the references to the Utah State flag and the Salt Lake City flag is great. I love teams that incorporate local elements like that.
All the Bee names legit has sold me on a team there being named the Stingers. Each game will begin with a live-reading of the Bee Movie Script.
Wow 9 months later and it is almost confirmed they are now moving Kind of cool in a way
I'm one minute in the video and the only thing I can think about is the Neil wearing a LA hat with an Arizona jersey.
Now that it’s seemingly inevitable that the Yotes are relocating, the Elk is the one I am REALLY hoping gets the nod! It goes so hard for the environment of Utah, and the people of Salt Lake City IMO would absolutely get hype for a team with that identity!
The fact that a slideshow was needed shows how hard it musta been to narrow it down. Wish i could have participated but im working on my first full 32 team JERSEY set (remember i only did the two IndyCar and the Stadium Series only had a few jerseys) for future release. Note on that. To those who come up with ideas for all 32 teams on a regular basis especially Detroit. I have even more respect for y'all now because i am struggling after Detroit and 12 other teams.
That’ll be exciting
Finally something positive about the whole situation. Thank you. But yeah, bad ownership forced the relocation. No wonder betman had to get so hands on. Previous ownership ran that franchise into the ground. Poor communication. No long term business plan.
“The team’s not moving” Here in April 2024: wamp wamp waaaaaamp
Great contest again. Thank you Neil from the community to allow the designers here to express their talents! Always fun to watch.
Really liked the Yeti concept. What you said was bang on, that is one of the best I’ve ever seen. It also screams 90s to me which I love!
I had an idea for a design and pleased that some of these for Stingers came very close to what I had in mind.
Best one is the Salt Lake Stingers at 16:45 for my vote.
Neil I gotta say nice work making this video almost 40 min long and the music/sound effects made the video more enjoyable for me. Thanks.
no one talking about how he mentioned the scorpions jerses looked like the golden knights jersey when the bobcats jersey was exactly the same striping as the kraken?
I made the Utah Stingers (the ones showed at the end of the vid)
Utah Yeti logo has been done. The old Kootenay Ice WHL team logo.
mine was at 34:16. I am surprised with how many other people also thought of the "Elks" or "Elk" name
That 2nd place Utah Yeti design is incredible. I so hope that the team decides to do something similar. But given how Ryan Smith branded the Jazz, I really doubt they will do something that cool.
Salt Lake City Latter Day Skates has to be my favourite suggestion I've heard thus far.
Skull wearing a cowboy hat?!? Common, that rules. Also: Monster and Pronghorns. A bit too much colour in the shirt, yes, but the monster logo is unique and has a character to it and a nice outline. The Pronghorn logo is brilliant! Can't believe it wasn't near top just for that alone. I seldom see a completely new design language in a logo. How rare is that? Rivals the best NHL logos.
PS. I think that Yeti logo is pretty much the old Kootenay Ice logo. Check it out.
Monster was mine, based it off the north shore monster folklore so made it more colourful to stand out more, could have bit me in the ass choosing a brighter colour but, thought they complimented each other well. Thanks man!
Wow, you just made my day! The skull with the cowboy hat was mine! I’m glad you like it!
In thinking about it a “stinger”or “swarm” with a bee hive somewhere in the logo would play very well with the community in SLC. The Beehive house was Brigham Young’s residence as the Governor of the Utah territory and head of the Mormon church. It’s an interesting reference for the area.
4th in your contest - thanks again Neil looking forward o the next one, take care!
That Serpents logo is creative - it has more than just an "S", it has an S and L and then the snake right below it Yeti was definitely the best imo!
Serpents was my design, thank you for the comment ❤
@@DavidWilson-li5pc Awesome work! Love the colors too
Swarm would be a perfect name for the Salt Lake City/Utah team. I mean, a hard working collective, united as one etc...They can do so much from a marketing standpoint for both the team, the fans, the arena... yeah, pretty much anything.
The Yeti colors look like the Utah Jazz jerseys back in the Malone/,Stockton days... Only problem is the North American Bigfoot is called Sasquatch from the Native Americans - Yeti is a name from Nepal.
The Salt Lake City Scorpions 🦂 or Stingers Sound Awsome for a NHL team name there used to be a team in the CHL called the New Mexico Scorpions I like the Utah Yeti name too
Agree with the Scorpions as the top jersey. Also liked Yeti, and the Stinger jersey with the dark purple and gold. Utah Bobcats is a good name, though logo needed some work. Think the ownership will include the entire state in the team name. Utah Scorpions still works. Vipers is another good name. Lot of good entries. Congrats to all for a job well done
Need to be careful with the Swarm idea. The NLL has a team called the Georgia Swarm, and this could be a copyright infringement if this was to be put into action. Great video!
I love basically any logo tha incorporates a hockey stick
Really wish the top 2 could get something. Loved both designs a lot. Also the Salt Lake Ice Gators in the honorable mentions? Absolutely incredible
Congrats to the winner! Mine is the Utah Raptors at 36:47 and I acknowledge that there is a pro team called the Raptors, but I went for totally different branding. Imo, Toronto and Utah are far enough away that nobody would get confused! (Does anybody every confuse the Sacramento kings with the LA kings?). It would have been nice to make the top 20 considering my jersey made the thumbnail!
I like how the raptor is the outline of the dinosaur, but the inside is the skeleton. Nice work buddy! Mine is the Salt Lake City Minutemen at 34:31
@@danielpodjun715thank you! Love the bold colour choice - nhl should definitely get that creative
@@Adri.anaS65 lol, yeah I went for bike for sure, it’s amazing what you can do with a highlighter marker lol!
Using a name another Team has isnt unheard of Carolina panthers - Florida panthers Arizona cardinals - st louis cardinals Sacramento kings - Los Angeles kings So Utah Raptors isn't fully out of the question
Unfortunately I was unable to enter this contest… life and work got in the way. I wish I’ve found time to. My favorite concept is Salt Lake Swarm by B.W.Hockey. All in all every concept was good!
Utah Yeti is easily the best team, it’s unique it matches the state, the weather, great for merchandising. I could see the Utah Yeti becoming a real thing.
Mine is the Sasquatch 35:06. I think I did ok 👍 but maybe I went a little too Avalanche on this one but next Competition I’ll come up with something really nice.
11:18 was my entry for Salt Lake City Stingers. Will be back for the next contest!
That simpler first Stingers design was awesome, logo and colors were great. The Utah Yeti as well would be amazing as well. Reminds me of the old Utah Jazz jerseys.
That Scorpions one is siiiiiiiiiiiiiiick, and the color scheme fits Utah so well. Maybe a bit darker red, but still. That is such a disgustingly good brand, and I'm sad that we won't get it, cause I'd buy that jersey in a *HARTBEAT*
So close, but I'll take 3rd place! Great entries, everyone!
I made the top 60 wonderful. Thx you Neil
That Utah yeti is straight fire!
The "Scorpions" concept was my favorite a well and there were some very good submissions too!
Congrats to everyone in the Top 5 especially to Scott!
To everyone nice work to everyone who made congratulations to the winner nice work.
Well, this just popped up in my home page today. I guess this became super relevant again.
Both 1 and 2 - Scorpions and Yeti, are both taken from Utah Jazz colors. Both of those color patterns were used by the Utah Jazz over the years. Jazz purple logo even included mountain range.
And Bee concept....Stinger is Columbus Bluejackets mascot. Minor league baseball team - Salt Lake Bees, and several Bee concerts in college. VIPERS - old AHL team.
Im gonna cry if my Coyotes move. I'll never forget when they let us submit nicknames when they moved from Winnipeg. I voted for Scorpions in honor of when Michael Jordan played baseball for the Scottsdale Scorpions minor league team...
The Yeti jersey looks like the old Kooteny Ice jerseys of the whl
The SLC Scorpions would be awesome! That kit is so well done. There used to be an CHL team that played in Albuquerque called the New Mexico Scorpions. Living in southwest Colorado, it was always a blast to go watch the eagles play there (shorter drive too). Unfortunately they folded in 2009 so it would be great to see some scorpions in the hockey world again.
POV: you are seeing this video knowing that the coyotes are probably moving at the end of the season
It is actually happening now
I loved that scorpions logo and you could not go wrong with any of them
I’d much rather an expansion lottery instead of the Arizona Coyotes moving to the city I live in💀😂
The copper & black Elk looks AMAZING. I'd buy that one too.
Love the Utah Yeti! The colors , the striping, and the yeti in the logo holding the hockey stick .
the drawn Elk one has great design with the style of letters & words, but that logo surrounded in white would save the contrast in the main jersey colour, but it looks good for a simple drawing & colouring.
Wicked contest and great work everyone 👍
I made the slideshow!!! 😂😂😂
It’s really bothering me that your hat doesn’t match your jersey. Are you not feeling well?
The Utah Yeti will be an epic name and jersey design has incredible potential! It is relatable to a winter fierce creature and rolls off the tongue so smoothly, I hope this will be the name given for this franchise.
Darn it I forgot about this contest. Oh well. I think all of these were great!
The Salt Lake Scorpions looks awesome.
When’s the next team design contest? I think ima send one in for once lol
35:36 This is perhaps in my top 3 of every submission.
I think all of these are awesome! Are there apps and programs for designing hockey jerseys? I can't draw worth beans. Great job, guys!!
Utah Bobcats one looks awesome! So unique!! Love the colour scheme. I'd buy that jersey regardless!
I wish I knew about this earlier. I think the Salt Lake Osmonds would be a hit.
Love the logic. “Teams not gonna move” “I don’t want them to move” but hey imma make videos about the logo and name of the team when they move
I have done this for other teams in the past. This is not something new or targeted. No need to be offended.
Utah yeti reminds me of the Kootney ICE
Thank you, I really enjoyed watching this! I do have to put in my 2 cents. I really like most of the designs and colors. As you say there are many talented people that have contributed! But, mostly, I don't like the names. One has to understand a little history of sports in Utah! The Bees and Bee themed names have traditionally been used by our Pacific Coast League baseball teams, other that a period when they were the named "The Gulls" and when they were a Pioneer league team named "The Trappers" (partially owned by Bill Murray). They were for a time names "The Buzz" and then "The Stingers" before finally getting the Bees name back. I don't like the name Stingers because we often referred to them as ''the Stinkers" because they were sometimes not so good! Ice Hockey has history in Utah and for a long time we had the IHL "Golden Eagles" and now the ECHL "Utah Grizzlies". Since the Golden Eagle is the Utah State Bird of prey, I think we need to return Ice Hockey in Utah to the Salt Lake or Utah Golden Eagles. They had the coolest Red, white and Gold uniforms. Look up Dan Plante's Salt Lake Golden Eagle's Jersey!
Suggestion for name ideas. 1 Two-syllable like Wham-Bam or one-syllable like Boom 2 No "S" at the end 3 Regional, as in, has ties to the state 4 drop the usual bird, cat, dog names 5 Utah over Salt Lake for being shorter and more inclusive 6 makes for a catchy logo 7 BE UNIQUE!!
My two problems with the stingers/bee concept: 1. Utah already has a baseball team named the Salt Lake City Bees 2. We already have enough black and yellow colored teams and uniforms in the NHL (Which is why I favor a color scheme like this more 18:19 )
I like the vibe and the concept behind this contest, very innovative. All the designs are really good, they show the creators are passionate, with a vested interest in what they are doing. All good things come from that freedom of expression. For my money 'the Utah Bobcats' take the prize.
35:56 There's definitely something there! Logo is amazing, perhaps rework the jersey itself (don't think splitting up that jersey in half works very well). I could see a gradient instead. Great work tho!
No question the Utah Yeti should've won
Hi Neil and I love your channel and your videos and if you keep making videos I will keep watching them and what is your favorite Nhl team and favorite player from that team
What about Salt Lake City Scarabs or Salt Lake City Sphinx. You could take advantage of Egyptian style themes.
What's interesting is the Utah team will not be keeping the Coyotes/Jets 1.0 franchise's history but will bet treated like an expansion team without being an actual expansion team. The Arizona Coyotes are considered an "inactive franchise" and if they can get an arena built within 5 years, they will be re-activated.
Ironically, Scorpions would fit Arizona even better! 😆😆
crazy this is what ended up happening
Salt Lake City Shakers . If you are stupid enough to not use this name, the very next professional sports team WILL!
Is it true Salt lake City is getting a team. I have yet to see it announced on NHL website.
Video aged well. I loved the last Utah Elk jersey. Very clean. We can confirm that Ryan Smith wants it to be a “Utah ______” and not “Salt Lake City _____” or “Salt Lake ______” which is do believe is the way to go imho.
its kinda crazy i created a team in nhl 23 called the slc scorpions what are the chances
HEY NEIL ID LOVE TO SEE A SHOWCASE FOR MY HOME STATE INDIANA IF THEY HAD A TEAM I HAVE A GREAT CONCEPT ID LOVE TO SEND
with the scorpions you missed the fighter jet at the bottom negative space
Salt Lake City Celestials. This one.
I'd love to see them have some fun with it and go with something like the Jackalopes. Could go by just Jacks for short
My Concept Was at 14:17
A lot of bees/hornets concepts
I love the wasp jerseys and the colors hope that turns out good
