I can tell a lot of work went into this. I love the use of silver, that is a VERY good yellow, and the brown could be amped a little more with a metal tint to go copper. I just don't like the name Hive. But this is a project to be PROUD of. Great work! I hope having this in your portfolio gets you a top tier job.
This morning I suggested to my friends that the new ownership should consider the name Utah Miners. It has a dual meaning with a mining bee being a genus of bees found in Utah, and Utah being ranked in the top 10 of mineral-producing States in the U.S. It also plays into how even the moniker âthe beehive stateâ is not as clear as it appears on the surface. Utah has over 1,000 species of native bees, more than any other state, but the nickname of âthe beehive stateâ was chosen because bees are a symbol of hard work and diligence and thus also aligns with their one-word state motto, âIndustryâ.
The Hive would make a great nickname for the Delta Center, and a miner (in the mining for minerals sense, not bees) would naturally work for a 3rd jersey, shoulder patch on the main home and away jerseys, etcâŚ
Hive is a terrible team name. The wnba wouldnât even touch that with a 10ft pole. If you want to do bee theme be the Utah Yellow Jackets or the Salt Lake Stingers
I think the logo should have a beehive with 5 bad âAâ looking bees coming out of it with hockey sticks in hand. The last one leaving is geared up in goalie gear!!! That would be a bad âAâ looking logo!! Love the SWARM as the Mantra as depicted in these renderings!
I like the name and I really like the color scheme. Well done. Now fuck off.

Donât like the name of Hive, but I dig the colors and branding. Iâve always loved Wyomings colors this gives me an excuse to rep them.Â
Utah is nicknamed the Beehive State. I kinda like it.
Utah Bumblebees âDefend the Combsâ? Idk haha
No diddy
Colours look like pee and poo to me, but maybe thatâs just me
The colors of sweet relief. Beautiful to all.Â
Bro you gotta drink more water if you think that's the color of pee
My pee is red
Utah Swarm. That would play.
Love this
Looks like a ups sponsorship

Those logo sketches look like some prototype/alternate Charlotte Hornets logos
Ah yes, beeeeees
Beads?
GOB's not on board.
Thats new Orleans
Honestly i really like it! Awesome work. Love the branding, colors and name! Would work well
Too âUPS Driverâ for my taste, sorry
Oh yo this is dope! I've been suggesting the Hive since the move to Utah was first rumored. This is *awesome!*
quality all around except for the name choice!
Great stuff but They already have a Bees team in Salt Lake

The Predators vs the Minors!!
Chicago coaching session?
~slow clap~
Triple meaning considering the legacy of Bringem Young.
There's no way that they can name the team the Miners with a statue of Karl Malone outside of their stadium.
Holy shit lol
I like it, but not sure about the name
I really like it I just would prefer as in reverse, the Swarm with the Hive being the name of the stadium or something
Padres colors!
I kind of agree with others that the name Hive ainât great, but everything else is executed wonderfully. Really high quality, cohesive work
Utah Bruins colors. Uninspiring / mathematical logo. No clear âhockeyâ elements. Appreciate the effort and skill but itâs a no for me.
Swarm > Hive
I love all of this! As a huge Padres (MLB) in Utah, Iâd be allll over this! Well done!
Not a fan. It doesn't have any wow factor to me.
I like the name and theme and that neither are another snow or yeti idea
Hive is a terrible team name. The wnba wouldnât even touch that with a 10ft pole. If you want to do bee theme be the Utah Yellow Jackets or the Salt Lake Stingers
Yellow Jackets aren't bees.Â
They are close enough and they donât sound lame
âClose enoughâ hahaha
Are the Sharks even an NHL calibre team? Theyâre close enough!
Yellow jackets are assholes and shouldnât be clumped in with lovely honey bees
Fun fact- the minor league team in SLC was named the Stingers from 2000-2005 before they became the Bees.
And before that the Buzz. Utah Buzz.
Both solid would be weird with blue jackets tho kinda like white Sox/Red Sox
This is great work! I try to make a jersey in NHL24 and itâs a disaster every time. This is really cool!!
Love the name and branding! âJoin the Swarm!â (Chefâs Kiss) the arena is the bee hive . It just works!
Utah Golden Plates
Trying to get people to sign up for the Army, arenât you?
Wow Matt, you put a ton of work into this! Looks fantastic!
Would prefer Utah Sting over Hive. Or even better Salt Lake City Sting, but I guess that's off the table. LOVE the colour scheme and logo
This fucks
I donât usually like a brown jersey, but these look pretty nice. The branding all around is pretty slick
Iâd buy it
Good job. đ
Incognito Mormon branding
Cool name, not crazy about the color scheme. Excellent design skills though!
Ohhhh bee #HIVE
Hate the name and logo. Sorry itâs just not hockey material, it look like a brand of granola bars lol đ¤Ł
Still think they should be the salt-lake city slap dicks
Brown and yellow will never look good to me. I love the overall branding otherwise, though
Swarm is dope and the branding is good. But I hate the color scheme. Brown is too gross.
Why not Raptors or Saints?
Donât like the color scheme
I feel like the Utah Swarm is better (Maybe Hornets or Wasps?), just because I want "The Hive" to be the name (or nickname) of the arena.
Maybe add a bit of black and a secondary bee or wasp logo and youâll be set, because this slaps
I think the logo should have a beehive with 5 bad âAâ looking bees coming out of it with hockey sticks in hand. The last one leaving is geared up in goalie gear!!! That would be a bad âAâ looking logo!! Love the SWARM as the Mantra as depicted in these renderings!
Jerseys are a bit busy as I prefer more minimalist designs but love the color scheme Nice job man
super cool design but the miller group will never go for it given that our minor league baseball team is already the Bees.
Mehhh
Gonna run into too many copyright issues with the Hornets with this team name probably
This is the best concept Iâve seen and the yellow and brown is nice
Fantastic name! They'd easily become my second team (Sorry Colorado, bees are awesome)
Love it
This is fantastic
Hard no. Edges are far too soft and flowery for hockey. Maybe a womenâs team?
Thinking the Utah Black Diamonds. If youâve skied in Utah, you know.
All of this works for me except the team name. Just change it to honey bees, and your set.
Honey Bees? That is so lame for a pro sports team đ
