Mammoth's Kailer Yamamoto: Produces pair of assists
Yamamoto notched two assists, three hits and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Golden Knights in Game 2.
The Mammoth's second line led them to the win, with Yamamoto helping out on goals by Dylan Guenther and Logan Cooley. The 27-year-old Yamamoto had a bit of a bounce-back year with 23 points over 59 regular-season contests, and he's maintained a second-line role at even strength in recent weeks. This is his fifth year appearing in the postseason -- over his previous four playoff runs, he collected three goals and 12 points across 34 games.

Mammoth's MacKenzie Weegar: Credited with goal Game 2 win
Weegar scored a goal on two shots and added four hits in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Golden Knights in Game 2.
Weegar was credited with the Mammoth's first goal, which was ruled an own goal by the Golden Knights. The 32-year-old defenseman last scored March 26 versus the Capitals, picking up four assists over nine outings between tallies. Weegar is in the playoffs for the fourth time in his career and the first since 2021-22. In the three prior postseason runs, he collected five points over 20 contests.

Mammoth's Logan Cooley: Nets game-winner Tuesday
Cooley scored a goal on three shots, added two PIM, logged three hits and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Golden Knights in Game 2.
Cooley has scored in both games of the series so far, and his tally Tuesday was the game-winner. That will send the series to Utah tied at one game apiece. Cooley is featuring on the second line and first power-play unit, so he's in a good position to be a consistent scoring threat for the Mammoth. The 21-year-old has nine goals and six helpers over his last 12 outings dating back to March 26.

Mammoth's Dylan Guenther: One of each in Game 2 win
Guenther scored a goal on five shots, added an assist, logged two hits, blocked two shots and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Golden Knights in Game 2.
Guenther gave the Mammoth their first lead at 14:56 of the second period, but Ivan Barbashev replied for the Golden Knights just 1:02 later. In the third, Guenther set up Logan Cooley on the game-winning tally. These two points were the first ones Guenther has earned in the postseason, as this is his first time in the playoffs over his four NHL years. He broke out with 40 goals, 73 points, 242 shots on net, 66 hits and a plus-7 rating over 79 regular-season outings in 2025-26.

Mammoth's Karel Vejmelka: Picks up win in Game 2
Vejmelka allowed two goals on 22 shots in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Golden Knights in Game 2.
The Mammoth scored a goal in each period, and Vejmelka was able to shut the door on Vegas in the third to pick up his first career playoff win. This is the first time in five outings he's allowed fewer than three goals. He's given up five goals on 52 shots over two games against the Golden Knights in the first round, and he'll likely be back in goal Friday for Game 3 in Utah.

Mammoth's Karel Vejmelka: Looking to even series Tuesday
Vejmelka will defend the road cage in Game 2 against the Golden Knights on Tuesday, according to Brogan Houston of the Deseret News.
Vejmelka allowed three goals on 30 shots in Sunday's 4-2 loss in Game 1. It marked the fourth straight game in which the Czech netminder has conceded exactly three goals. Furthermore, Vejmelka has been beaten for at least three goals in six of his last seven outings. There will be a change for the home team in Game 2, as Vegas is splitting up its top line -- Mitch Marner is shifting to the second-line center, while Ivan Barbashev will slot in with Jack Eichel and Mark Stone.

Mammoth's Ian Cole: Records helper in Game 1 loss
Cole notched an assist and three blocked shots in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Golden Knights in Game 1.
Cole ended the regular season on a five-game point drought. The 37-year-old defenseman is set for third-pairing minutes during this playoff run after logging 23 points over 82 regular-season outings, his highest output in six years. Cole is in his 12th playoff run, having collected 31 points in 129 appearances as well as a pair of Stanley Cup championships with the Penguins in 2016 and 2017.

Mammoth's Nate Schmidt: Picks up assist against old team
Schmidt logged an assist, two shots on goal and three blocked shots in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Golden Knights in Game 1.
Schmidt had a goal and three assists over the last 15 games of the regular season. The defenseman put up 22 points over 82 regular-season contests, his highest point total in four years. He's well-versed in playoff experience, having logged 99 games over eight previous postseason, with 10 goals and 30 helpers to his name. Schmidt was a Stanley Cup champion with the Panthers last year but will have a tougher task in trying to help the Mammoth turn a wild-card berth into a deep run.

Mammoth's Sean Durzi: Gathers assist in loss
Durzi notched an assist and two PIM in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Golden Knights in Game 1.
Durzi missed the last game of the regular season due to an upper-body injury, though it appears the Mammoth were just taking caution to prevent a larger issue. The 27-year-old is expected to be a regular in the lineup during the playoffs, though likely in a bottom-four role. Durzi had 27 points, 84 shots on net, 88 blocked shots, 50 PIM and 40 hits over 60 regular-season appearances. He's in the playoffs for the third time in his career, having collected four points over 13 games across two previous postseason runs, both with the Kings.

Mammoth's Kevin Stenlund: Buries goal in loss
Stenlund scored a goal on four shots in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Golden Knights in Game 1.
Stenlund hadn't scored a goal in three months, going 32 contests since his last tally Jan. 17 versus the Kraken. He's maintained a steady bottom-six presence in the lineup but isn't likely to put up much offense. Stenlund was limited to 18 points over 80 regular-season outings in total. He is a veteran of 31 playoff games over three previous postseasons, but he had just three points in those games. However, he is a Stanley Cup champion from 2024 with the Panthers, bringing some vital playoff experience to a team that greatly lacks it.

Mammoth's Logan Cooley: Pots goal in Game 1 loss
Cooley scored a goal on five shots and added four hits in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Golden Knights in Game 1.
Cooley is getting his first taste of playoff action in his third NHL campaign, and the Mammoth have him slotted in on the second line. He produced 24 goals, 19 assists, 102 shots on net, 54 hits, 27 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating over 54 regular-season outings. Cooley has a bit of an edge to his game, so he won't get bullied on the ice as the Mammoth try to pull off a first-round upset.

Mammoth's Karel Vejmelka: Loses playoff debut
Vejmelka stopped 27 of 30 shots in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Golden Knights in Game 1. The fourth goal was an empty-netter.
Vejmelka worked hard to get the Mammoth to the playoffs, but there will be no easy matchups the rest of the way. This was the 29-year-old's first taste of postseason action. He went 38-20-3 with a 2.75 GAA and an .896 save percentage over 64 regular-season outings. Vejmelka was also on Czechia's Olympic roster, though he didn't get to play a game during that tournament. Barring a truly awful performance, Vejmelka should be expected to see the vast majority of the starts during Utah's first playoff run as a franchise.

Mammoth's Jack McBain: In lineup for Game 1
McBain (lower body) is suiting up for Game 1 in Vegas on Sunday, per the NHL media site.
McBain missed the last seven games of the regular season due to his injury. It was reported Tuesday that he was still week-to-week, so he either made tremendous progress in his recovery, or head coach Andre Tourigny was playing the gamesmanship card. Liam O'Brien will be a healthy scratch as a result of McBain's return.

Mammoth's Sean Durzi: Suiting up in Vegas
Durzi (upper body) is in the lineup for Game 1 versus the Golden Knights on Sunday, according to the NHL media site.
Durzi missed Utah's regular-season finale Thursday against the Blues after sustaining his upper-body injury Tuesday versus the Jets. Whether the right-shot blueliner is 100 percent healthy remains to be seen, but he will replace Nick DeSimone in the lineup and skate on the third pairing next to Ian Cole to start Utah's first postseason run.

Mammoth's Maveric Lamoureux: Joining as Black Ace

With AHL Tucson's season wrapped up, the Mammoth have set their Black Aces for the postseason. Lamoureux will be joined by Andrew Agozzino, Cameron Hebig, Ben McCartney, Maksymilian Szuber, Scott Perunovich, Jaxson Stauber, Daniil But and Matt Villalta as potential reinforcements for the Mammoth's playoff run.

Mammoth's Karel Vejmelka: First off ahead of Game 1
Vejmelka was the first goalie off the ice at the morning skate, Cole Bagley of KSL Sports reports, indicating Vejmelka will defend the road net in Game 1 against Vegas on Sunday.
Vejmelka went 2-1-0 versus the Golden Knights during the regular season, allowing only five goals on 95 shots. He had a 38-20-3 record with two shutouts, a 2.75 GAA and an .896 save percentage across 64 appearances in the 2025-26 regular season.

Mammoth's Scott Perunovich: Picks up three assists for Tucson
Perunovich recorded three assists in AHL Tucson's 5-4 win over Henderson on Saturday.
Perunovich has displayed quality scoring with nine goals and 40 helpers over 64 outings this season. That includes two goals and 11 assists over his last 11 contests. The 27-year-old's scoring ability hasn't translated to the NHL, and at this point, it's not clear when he might get another chance at hockey's highest level.
