I was scrolling through live scores today. Masters. MLB. NHL. The dreaded drought between football seasons. Then I spotted something.

UTA.

What is that? I said to myself.

So I clicked in.

The Utah Mammoth.

Apparently they’re fairly new. And apparently I live under a hockey rock.

TIL.

I can’t be the only one, can I?

It's a terrible name but so is the Kraken.

it definitely feels totally made up, like something you’d see in a movie that didn’t want to pay for using real names. maybe I won’t feel that way in 20 years

ok, that’s actually kinda cool

I don't like the team name but I respect them for leaning into it.

I didn't know that name until I started paying some attention to NHL when we started the pod.

I see GR shared this almost a year ago. I guess I just missed it!
