The Utah Hockey Club is certainly winning hearts quickly, thanks in large part to winning games.
Utah HC moved to 2-0 Thursday night with a dramatic 5-4 overtime victory over the New York Islanders on the road as Dylan Guenther scored his second goal of the night and fourth of the season in the sudden death period to grab the win.
Fans on X, many of whom are just starting to get into hockey with the arrival of the NHL’s newest team in Salt Lake City, certainly had strong reactions to the win and to the squad’s hot start.
Here is some of that reaction.
Really wondering if the Utah HC will ever lose a game.
2-0 BAYBEEEEEEEEEEE
×2 GWG!!! https://t.co/JOuG3VyWdN

Rt if ur hockey team is 2-0 and has never lost in franchise history 😌
We might never lose and we have the best GM in sports
Have to say this. It didn't take me long to become a big hockey fan!
With tonight's 5-4 overtime win against the Islanders, Utah has scored 10 total goals through two games in 2024-25, passing Los Angeles (1967-68: 9) and Oakland (1967-68: 9) for the most goals by any NHL franchise through the first two games of its inaugural season. https://t.co/5zMos9mAx3
I can't decide which sweater to get. I've gone from Keller to Cooley to Sergy to Guenther to Ingram to Hayton lol
Durzi getting a black eye defending Keller has me leaning toward grabbing his though

UTAH HOCKEY CLUB WON AGAIN. WE HAVE NEVER LOST IN TEAM HISTORY AND NEVER WILL.
That was a great hockey game – i was sitting 14 rows from the ice – Utah has great young talent and they skate as fast as any team I have seen
I don’t want to overreact but I just booked tickets to the @utahhockeyclub Stanley cup parade
