After 3 decades spent in the sunny (and humid) South Florida media world, Jeff has traveled to across the country to partake in the delights of The Beehive State.
Opening night for the Utah Hockey Club is just weeks away, but even the team admits there's no secret as to what fans are most interested in knowing about the franchise.'I knew that was probably going to be the first question,' said team president Chris Armstrong at Wednesday's media day.The question? What will the team eventually be called? Since the team's spring arrival, local fans have had a say in determining a nickname through a drawn out voting process.
'But even among the team's top brass, executives are keeping tight-lipped about the new nickname.'That's above my pay grade,' joked general manager Bill Armstrong, no relation to Chris. 'I'll tell you this, and what I've said from the get go is that I love the way they've done it because it gives the fans the kids that are eight years old a chance to vote online for the name of the team, and I love that.
