Utah Looks for Season Sweep
The Utah Mammoth have put up a solid record this season with 39 wins against 30 losses, and look to continue their dominance over the Canucks on Saturday night. They won each of their first two matchups by at least three goals, and look to improve their record as their postseason fate has not yet been sealed. The Mammoth would currently get the top Wild Card spot in the Western Conference if the standings stayed put.
Utah won each of their last two games as they continue this road trip, they recently defeated the Kings and the Kracken, winning both games 6-2 as the visitor. Their most productive player has been Clayton Keller with 22 goals and 52 assists, with Dylan Guenther as adding another 37 goals and 28 assists. Karel Vejmelka has been their top goalie, with a save rate of 89.9%.
The Mammoth are 13th in the league in goals per game at 3.21, while ranking 6th in goal allowed, giving up just 2.85 per game. They are just 22nd in the league in power play percentage.

Canucks Drop Seven of Eight
This season has not been kind to the Vancouver Canucks, as they approach their final stretch having lost seven of their last eight, and are one of the few teams in the league already eliminated from playoff contention. Their lone win in the stretch came on the road against the Avalanche, where they were able to score eight goals, but that has been a rare bright spot in their recent schedule.
ESPN recently released a new set of power rankings, and had Vancouver ranked dead least at 32nd as it looks like they will soon clinch the worst record in the league for the season. Anything can happen on the ice, and they still have some productive players as Elias Pettersson has 15 goals and 33 assists on the year, with Brock Boeser contributing 21 goals and 22 assists. Kevin Lankinen has started the most games at goalie with an 87.5% save rate.
Vancouver is 30th in goals per game with 2.56, and defensively they rank last in the league by a wide margin, as they allow 3.81 goals per game, and the 31st ranked team is giving up just 3.51. The Canucks rank 20th in power play percentage.
Mammoth vs. Canucks Picks and Predictions
Spread pick for Mammoth vs. Canucks
- Utah Puck Line -1.5 (4 units)
There is no reason to back Vancouver here, as they are plummeting towards locking up the worst record in the NHL this season. They have not been able to keep the puck out of the net, they are giving up the most goals in the league by a wide margin, and have already struggled twice this season against Utah. The Mammoth already won this matchup twice this season, covering the line as they won by three or more in each matchup. Utah is fighting for playoff positioning, and are coming off two consecutive road wins, they will stay hot here.
Take Utah to cover.
Over/Under Pick for Mammoth vs. Canucks
- Under (4 units)
Vancouver will not be able to generate enough offense here, and Utah will comfortably cruise to a win without the need of putting up a high scoring number. Their last matchup ended 4-1, and I see a similar output coming here as Utah is strong defensively, they rank 6th in the league in goals allowed per game. This is paired with Vancouver ranking only 30th in goals per game, so they will have a hard time scoring in this one. Expect a low scoring game here.
Take the under.
