Schmaltz scored a goal Tuesday in a 4-3 win over the Panthers.
It was a shorthanded goal that opened the scoring in the first period; it was also his first SHG of the season. It was Schmaltz's 19th goal of the campaign (53 games). He's not scoring like he was earlier in 2025-26, but he's still building toward a career season. Schmaltz has 47 points, 126 shots and a plus-17 rating in 53 games. Most impressively, he has swung his plus-minus from an abysmal minus-15 last year to that strong mark this season, and he's on pace to top 70 points.

Mammoth's Nick Schmaltz: Chips in with helper
Rotowire
Schmaltz distributed an assist, put two shots on goal and blocked two attempts in Monday's 4-2 loss to the Kings.
Schmaltz had the primary helper on Clayton Keller's goal midway through the final period. With the apple, Schmaltz is up to 15 assists, 26 points, 72 shots on net and 23 blocks through 31 games this season. His eight-game point drought through the end of November is firmly in the rear-view mirror as he has four points in his last three games. Despite his lack of points as of late, Schmaltz has upped his play on the other side of the puck with 12 blocks in his last nine outings. Both his offensive and defensive numbers could partially be attributed to his move to the top-line center role in the absence of Logan Cooley (lower body). With Cooley out indefinitely, Schmaltz will be relied upon in his new role up the center of the ice, giving him increased value in category fantasy leagues moving forward.

Rotowire
Schmaltz notched an assist and six shots on goal in Wednesday's 3-1 win over the Flames.
Schmaltz has settled into his usual playmaking role in the Mammoth's top six. He's already earned three assists over four games, though he's also racked up 16 shots on net.
