SALT LAKE CITY – As the Utah Hockey Club continues to settle into their new home, nearby sports teams and local universities have embraced their newest neighbor. However, on Wednesday afternoon, one of the Utah Hockey Club players gave a shoutout to BYU mascot Cosmo Cougar on social media.
While admitting that he’s never had a college allegiance, Utah Hockey Club goaltender Connor Ingram gave props to BYU’s mascot on social media.
“Never had a college allegiance but whoever’s inside that BYU cougar suit is my Roman Empire. Dudes legit,” Ingram shared on his X account.

Cosmo then responded to Ingram with, “my man 🤝”
my man 🤝

In addition to the interaction between Ingram and Cosmo, the hockey club also attended a University of Utah football game last month and an RSL match back in July.
