John Marino a Game-Time Call Tuesday

Utah Mammoth defenseman John Marino (upper body) is a game-time decision for Tuesday's tilt against the Winnipeg Jets. An upper-body injury has kept Marino sidelined for two games. However, he has a chance to return against Winnipeg after skating in a regular jersey on Tuesday morning. Marino boasts a team-best plus-39 rating and has set a new scoring record this season, with 35 points (four goals, 31 assists) in 78 games. Dmitri Simashev has played in the last two games but will likely make way for Marino if he's ready to return.

Clayton Keller Collects Four Points Against Canucks

Utah Mammoth winger Clayton Keller played the leading role in Saturday's 7-4 victory over the Vancouver Canucks, scoring a hat trick and adding an assist. Keller helped Lawson Crouse score early in the third period and recorded Utah's sixth hat trick this season with an empty-netter late in the game. The Olympic champion has been on a heater in recent games, amassing three goals and seven assists over his last four outings. It should only be a matter of time before Keller can celebrate his third 80-point campaign. He has notched 25 goals and 53 assists across 76 games in 2025-26.

MacKenzie Weegar Listed as Day-to-Day

Utah Mammoth defenseman MacKenzie Weegar (upper body) is day-to-day, the team announced before Saturday's win over Vancouver. Weegar has made 13 appearances since joining the Mammoth from Calgary a month ago, logging four points (one goal, three assists), 21 SOG, 21 blocks, and 26 hits. Three of his points have come in his last four appearances, which could be a sign that Weegar is starting to feel more comfortable with his new team. His first chance to return to the lineup will be on Tuesday night against Edmonton. Nick DeSimone filled Weegar's spot on defense against Vancouver and finished a high-scoring 7-4 win with one assist.

Jack McBain Considered Week-to-Week

Utah Mammoth forward Jack McBain (lower body) is week-to-week. He suffered a lower-body injury in Thursday's win over Seattle and could be out for the remainder of the regular season. McBain missed his first game of the season when Utah beat Vancouver 7-4 on Saturday night. In 75 appearances, he has registered 25 points (nine goals, 16 assists), 106 SOG, and a team-high 271 hits. The Mammoth replaced McBain with Liam O'Brien on Saturday, and he rewarded the trust by scoring the team's sixth goal. However, O'Brien has picked up only a handful of points all season, and fantasy managers shouldn't expect him to improve his production during the final few games.

Jack McBain Exits With Lower-Body Injury Thursday

Utah Mammoth forward Jack McBain (lower body) left Thursday's 6-2 win over the Seattle Kraken in the second period, Catherine Bogart of the Mammoth's official site reports. His night at the office ended after he had logged exactly nine minutes of ice time. McBain has been Utah's ironman, not missing a single game this season, so he must be desperate to avoid his first absence on Saturday night against Vancouver. The 26-year-old is fourth in the NHL with 271 hits and has tallied 25 points (nine goals, 16 assists) in 75 games. Utah carries Liam O'Brien as an extra forward, and he could suit up for the first time in two months on Saturday.

Mikhail Sergachev Ties Mammoth Record With Four Assists

Utah Mammoth defenseman Mikhail Sergachev made a major impact offensively on Saturday against the Los Angeles Kings, finishing with a team record-matching four assists. Two of his helpers came with the man advantage. Earlier this week, Sergachev erupted for three first-period assists against Washington, so he has now set up seven goals over the last two games. He's the first Utah player with as many as three assists in back-to-back games. Sergachev's world-class playmaking has helped him to his second consecutive 50-point season. He has totaled 10 goals and 43 assists over 70 games. Additionally, he has registered 118 blocks, making Sergachev one of the top defensemen in fantasy hockey.

Barrett Hayton Out Week-to-Week

Utah Mammoth center Barrett Hayton (upper body) is week-to-week, Brogan Houston of the Deseret News reports. Mammoth head coach Andre Tourigny doesn't expect Hayton to play for a bit after he sustained an upper-body injury in Tuesday's loss to Edmonton. Hayton has tallied 25 points (10 goals, 15 assists) in 67 outings this season. His absence allowed Daniil But to re-enter the lineup on Thursday night against Washington, but he didn't make an impact in 9:08 of ice time.

Barrett Hayton Sustains Upper-Body Injury Tuesday

Utah Mammoth center Barrett Hayton suffered an upper-body injury in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Edmonton Oilers. He was involved in a collision with teammate Jack McBain and ended his night after logging only 17 seconds of ice time. Hayton's absence resulted in McBain and Logan Cooley taking on extra work. The two could enjoy increased ice time again on Thursday against Washington if Hayton isn't healthy enough to play. Hayton has totaled 10 goals and 25 points in 67 games this season.

Lawson Crouse • LW • Mammoth

Lawson Crouse Picks Up Three Points in Overtime Win

Utah Mammoth winger Lawson Crouse made a big impact on Sunday against the Los Angeles Kings, finishing a 4-3 overtime win with two goals and an assist. The 28-year-old already had two goals midway through the first period. He completed his second three-point effort of the season with an assist on Nick Schmaltz's 25th goal of the campaign. Schmaltz then went on to win the game for Utah in overtime. Crouse is skating with Schmaltz and Clayton Keller on the first line, which has boosted his fantasy stock. He has collected five points (three goals, two assists) over the last four games. It has been a strong bounce-back season for Crouse, who finished last term with 18 points. Currently, he is sitting on 37 points (19 goals, 18 assists) across 70 games.

Nate Schmidt Exits Early Due to Illness

Utah Mammoth defenseman Nate Schmidt left Sunday's 4-3 overtime win against the Los Angeles Kings early due to illness. The veteran had 10 shifts in the first frame but only five in the second and didn't come out for the third period. Schmidt has bagged a modest 20 points (five goals, 15 assists) in 71 games, but he is tied with Colorado's Cale Makar for sixth among defensemen with a plus-32 rating. On the Utah roster, Schmidt sits third with 88 blocks and sixth with 75 hits. He will be a big miss for the Mammoth on Tuesday night against Edmonton if he can't shake off his illness.

Nick Schmaltz Inks Eight-Year Extension With Mammoth

Utah Mammoth forward Nick Schmaltz committed his long-term future to the team, signing an eight-year, $64 million contract extension on Wednesday. He is currently on a seven-year, $40.95 million deal, which will expire this offseason. Without an extension, Schmaltz would have been a very attractive free agency target for teams. He's enjoyed a great spell with his current franchise, posting a new career high with 63 points last season. A year later, Schmaltz is well on track for another career high, sitting on 59 points (24 goals, 35 assists) through 65 games. He has already established his new single-season record with 24 goals.

Mikhail Sergachev • D • Mammoth

Mikhail Sergachev a Game-Time Call Saturday

Utah Mammoth defenseman Mikhail Sergachev (lower body) is a game-time call for Saturday's matchup with the Columbus Blue Jackets. After sustaining a lower-body injury, Sergachev missed his first game of the season on Thursday versus the Philadelphia Flyers. Sergachev plays a crucial role on Utah's blue line, recording 42 points (10 goals, 32 assists), 128 shots, 100 blocks, and a plus-three rating in 61 outings this season. If Sergachev isn't healthy enough to return on Saturday, Dmitri Simashev is poised to remain in the lineup. Meanwhile, Sean Durzi will continue to fill in for him on the first power-play unit.

Vitek Vanecek Stifles the Flyers

Utah Mammoth goaltender Vitek Vanecek stopped all 16 shots he faced in a 3-0 shutout win over the Philadelphia Flyers on Thursday. Vanecek was drawing just his 14th start of the season, but he turned in an elite performance and earned his second victory in a row. He did not face many shots, but he stopped all of them and helped the Mammoth earn a big two points in the standings. Utah plays a back-to-back on March 9 and 10, so he will most likely suit up in one of those games.

MacKenzie Weegar • D • Mammoth

Mammoth Acquire MacKenzie Weegar

Defenseman MacKenzie Weegar was traded by the Calgary Flames to the Utah Mammoth for defenseman Olli Maatta, forward prospect Jonathan Castagna, and three second-round picks in the 2026 draft. Weegar played three and a half seasons in Calgary. He has recorded 21 points (three goals, 18 assists), 125 shots, 143 blocks, and 130 hits in 60 outings this term. Weegar also carries a league-worst minus-35 rating, but that should improve now that he joined a much more competitive squad. With better players around him, Weegar is also well-positioned to increase his offensive output over the final stretch of the season. Due to immigration issues, Weegar isn't expected to make his Mammoth debut until next week.

Dylan Guenther Picks Up Two Points on Tuesday Night

Utah Mammoth right winger Dylan Guenther scored once and assisted one time in Tuesday's win over the Washington Capitals. He opened up the scoring 11:12 into the game on a snap shot that beat Logan Thompson, and then two minutes later, Guenther assisted on Mikhail Sergachev's power-play goal. On the 2025-26 season, Guenther now has 28 goals and 23 assists in 59 games played as a key part of the Mammoth offense.

Logan Cooley on Track to Return Wednesday

Utah Mammoth center Logan Cooley (lower body) could return to the lineup on Wednesday versus the Colorado Avalanche, Brogan Houston of the Deseret News reports. Cooley was on the second line during the morning skate and has been activated from Injured Reserve. The talented centerman has been on the shelf since Dec. 5 with a lower-body injury. Cooley performed well before his injury, recording 14 goals and 23 points in 29 games. After missing 28 games, Cooley may need some time to regain his rhythm, but he is expected to play a key role in Utah's playoff push.

Logan Cooley Sheds Non-Contact Jersey

Utah Mammoth center Logan Cooley (lower body) is practicing in a regular jersey, Cole Bagley of KSL Sports reports. With the Olympic tournament nearing its conclusion, NHL teams have started practicing again, and Cooley has been a full participant in the Mammoth's sessions. This bodes well for his availability once the season resumes next week. Utah will restart the action on Feb. 25 against the Colorado Avalanche. Cooley has been out since early December with a lower-body injury. Before he was hurt, the 21-year-old enjoyed a great start to the campaign, posting 14 goals and 23 points in 29 games.

Nick Schmaltz • C • Mammoth

Nick Schmaltz Leads Mammoth to Victory Monday

Utah Mammoth forward Nick Schmaltz scored his third career hat trick and added an assist in Monday's 6-2 triumph over the Vancouver Canucks. Schmaltz became Utah's second player this season with multiple hat tricks, producing his team's fifth hat trick in total. Only Edmonton (6) has had more hat tricks this season. Schmaltz has been in good goal-scoring form all season and now needs just two more markers for a new career-high. He has lit the lamp 22 times in 56 outings, adding 29 assists. This season, Schmaltz is also poised to break his scoring record of 63 points from last year.

Dylan Guenther Misses Second Consecutive Game

Utah Mammoth winger Dylan Guenther (lower body) will be sidelined for a second consecutive game on Thursday against the Carolina Hurricanes. The talented forward exited the lineup at the start of the week due to a lower-body injury and is considered day-to-day. It's possible that Guenther, who leads Utah with 24 goals and has 45 points in 52 games, will be able to end his absence on Saturday against the Dallas Stars. Logan Cooley (lower body) is also nearing his return after rejoining practice this week. In the meantime, Barrett Hayton will continue to center the second line, while Kailer Yamamoto will be on third-line duty against Carolina.

Sean Durzi Hurt on Monday Night

Utah Mammoth defenseman Sean Durzi (undisclosed) missed the final few minutes of Monday's 2-0 loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning, Brogan Houston of the Deseret News reports. Durzi has battled several health issues in recent seasons and could now miss more time. Utah will return to the ice on Tuesday against the Florida Panthers. Durzi has registered 15 points, 54 shots, and 55 blocks across 31 outings this season. Olli Maatta will step into the lineup if Durzi isn't ready to play on Tuesday night.
