There's been a lot of speculation about what the team's name will be, but Keller might have spilled the beans. During last week's NHL North American Players Media Tour, Keller was asked about the secret team name, and he casually dropped what he thinks it will be.
The name "Yeti" has been a fan favorite on social media, although "Blizzard" is another strong guess. Keller's comment has sparked excitement among fans, but it's still unclear if he was making an educated guess or letting something slip.
The Utah Hockey Club hasn't officially announced the team name yet, deciding to keep it under wraps for the inaugural season. They may be waiting for the perfect moment or fine-tuning their branding before revealing the name.
Some speculate this might even be a smart marketing move, allowing them to sell two rounds of "inaugural" jerseys, one for the nameless first season and another when the new name is officially announced.
Will Keller's "Yeti" prediction be right, or will the team surprise us with something else? We'll just have to wait and find out!
