The NHL\'s new team based in Salt Lake City will be known as Utah Hockey Club in its first season.
The Arizona Coyotes\' franchise was sold to Utah Jazz owners Smith Entertainment Group in April, with that sale finally closing on Thursday. While the Coyotes\' intellectual property remains with owner Alex Meruelo, Utah acquired the franchise, its players and its hockey operations department in the sale. It begins play next season.
