Utah Mammoth
Updated: 12/20/2025, 11:13:45 AM Wikipedia source
The Utah Mammoth are a professional ice hockey team based in Salt Lake City. The Mammoth compete in the National Hockey League (NHL) as a member of the Central Division in the Western Conference. The franchise joined the league as an expansion team for the 2024–25 season. The team plays its home games at the Delta Center, an arena they share with the Utah Jazz of the National Basketball Association (NBA). The team was created on April 18, 2024, with the NHL Board of Governors granting an expansion franchise to Jazz owner Ryan Smith. In lieu of an expansion draft to stock the new team, Smith acquired the hockey assets (players, coaching staff, and draft picks) of the Arizona Coyotes, which suspended hockey operations at the same time. The team played its inaugural season in 2024–25 with the temporary name Utah Hockey Club while a permanent name could be determined. The team's name, colors, and jerseys for their inaugural season were revealed on June 13, 2024. After playing a full season under the temporary name, a fan vote led to the permanent naming of Utah Mammoth, which was revealed on May 7, 2025.
