Rebuild-momentum · Wild card breakthrough

The Mammoth made the playoffs in just their second season in Salt Lake City, and they earned every bit of it. Dylan Guenther's breakout 40-goal, 73-point year alongside Clayton Keller and the continued ascent of Logan Cooley gave Utah a top-six that can finally trade punches with anyone, while Karel Vejmelka was a revelation in net with top-10 numbers in save percentage above expected. The warning shot is two states north, the Mammoth need to keep this trajectory going or they'll end up like the Kraken, an expansion novelty that quietly settles into permanent mediocrity.
