Actually you know what I'm not done talking about this. I have seen so many posts about people being like "UTAH??? The mormons don't deserve hockey!!! It's so conservative and there's basically a cult there!!!" I promise you there are states that are FAR more conservative that have NHL teams, and like... Why does the political alignment of the state matter in this context??? Besides if you were to go to Salt Lake or Ogden or even Park City you'd realize that this place is pretty damn accepting despite all the mormons. Utah has one of the biggest queer populations in the country. Also I know SO MANY people who are hockey fans here that are ecstatic! And I know so many people who AREN'T hockey fans that are ecstatic and plan on going to their games! "The population of SLC is so small in comparison to other NHL cities though" buddy have you ever heard of surrounding cities??? The whole Wasatch Front will be going to those games. There's a shit ton of cities surrounding SLC. Idk I'm sorry I'm just really sick and tired of seeing people being assholes about this whole thing. Yes, people are allowed to be upset about the Yotes being relocated. I understand that. But ffs be mad at the NHL, not Utah.

Hey! I know I haven't been active much on this blog or the hockey fandom at all, but I wanna say something about the Coyotes situation.

It absolutely sucks how the organization is treating the players and fans in this scenario. It's not fun and should've been handled VERY differently. I feel bad for all the fans, especially local ones. I feel bad for the players who have to figure out where they're going to go or what they're going to do.

However, I think it's super rude how a lot of fans are bashing Utah as a state. I was born and raised in Utah and I love it here! It's gorgeous! The mountains and scenery are beautiful! I know, Mormons live here and it's super conservative. But that's not the whole damn population. SLC itself is a super liberal city. It may not be the biggest city either, but there's a lot of cities surrounding it! Also, hockey is a growing sport here. It's BIG here right now. We've had NHL preseason games held at the Delta center, which have had nearly sold out crowds. I just think it's really shitty for people to judge our state/city and take out their anger on my home.

I'm sorry. I've just had to deal with a lot of shit in regards to being judged for living in Utah (or liking it here, for that matter.) I hope this doesn't seem too rude or harsh.
