Key Storylines
Recent Form
The Mammoth come into this game off the momentum of an overtime victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins, with Dylan Guenther scoring the decisive goal. Utah has won two games in a row, but has lacked consistency on the road, where it has struggled in previous matchups against Boston. The Bruins have won four of their last five contests. They took a loss in their last game against the Minnesota Wild, but will return home here, where they are 11-5-0 on the season.
Goaltending
Goaltending will be an important factor in this contest. Jeremy Swayman will jump in net for the Bruins. He has a 2.83 GAA on the year and will try to help his team get back into the win column here. The Mammoth’s goaltending has had its ups and downs, but Karel Vejmelka has been solid for the most part. Without Logan Cooley available to the lineup due to injury, Utah will need its netminder to stand tall against a well-balanced Boston attack.
Key Skaters
Utah’s offense has been powered by Dylan Guenther, who enters this game with 15 goals on the season. Nick Schmaltz and Clayton Keller also provide consistent scoring for the Mammoth. On Boston’s side, David Pastrnak continues to lead the charge offensively with 36 points on the year. Morgan Geekie is the Bruins’ top goal scorer with 22 goals so far this season.
