DALLAS (AP) Jack McBain's tie-breaking shorthanded goal early in the third period began a four-goal outburst and led the Utah Mammoth to a 6-3 win over Dallas on Monday night, ending the Dallas Stars' point streak at a franchise-record 15 games.

Clayton Keller, Kailer Yamamoto, Michael Carcone, Lawson Crouse and defenseman Nate Schmidt also scored for the Mammoth, who hold the Western Conference's first wild-card position by five points. Vitek Vanecek, making his 16th start of the season, stopped 27 shots.

Wyatt Johnston, Sam Steel and Adam Erne scored for the Stars, who lost in regulation for the first time since Jan. 22, going 14-0-1. Dallas also had a 15-game streak in its 1998-99 Stanley Cup season (12-0-3).

McBain gained possession just outside Utah's blue line following a turnover by Dallas defenseman Miro Heiskanen. Skating in alone, McBain lifted a backhander past Casey DeSmith at 4:16 of the third period for a 3-2 lead.

DeSmith made 16 saves and saw a personal four-game win streak end.

Dallas has the second-most points in the league (94) and will play its next two games, both on the road, against the teams just ahead of them (Colorado) and just behind them (Minnesota) in the Central Division.

Yamamoto added an insurance goal almost four minutes later followed by Carcone's power-play goal and Crouse's empty-netter in the final minutes.

It was McBain's seventh goal of the season, ending a 20-game goal drought that began Jan. 15.

Schmidt ended a 15-game goal drought since he had two goals and four points on Jan. 17.

It's Keller's sixth 20-goal season, fifth consecutive.

Dallas' power play, second best in the NHL, went 0 for 3 and allowed a short-handed goal, failing to score for the first time in 13 games.

Mammoth: Visit Vegas on Thursday.

Stars: Visit Colorado on Wednesday.

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) Noel Acciari scored the go-ahead goal at the 8:03 mark of the third period to lift the Pittsburgh Penguins past the Utah Mammoth 4-3 on Saturday night.

Acciari won a battle for the puck with Nick Schmaltz and scored on a close-range snap shot to help the Penguins complete a rally from an early two-goal deficit.

Stuart Skinner had 26 saves for Pittsburgh. Bryan Rust, Anthony Mantha and Thomas Novak also scored goals for the Penguins.

Dylan Guenther scored two unassisted goals in a 91-second span during the first period for Utah. Guenther, who leads the Mammoth with 33 goals, became only the second NHL player since the 2018-19 season to score two unassisted goals in less than two minutes.

Ian Cole completed the scoring for Utah. Karel Vejmelka made 19 stops for the Mammoth.

Guenther threaded the puck around Skinner's skate at the 5:06 mark of the first to get Utah on the board. Then he tapped the puck over the line amid traffic, scoring on a power play at the 6:37 mark of the first to put the Mammoth up 2-0.

Pittsburgh erased the deficit late in the second period. Mantha scored the Penguins' first power-play goal with 5:12 left in the second. Novak then equalized on a wrist shot with 2:34 remaining in the period.

The Penguins took their first lead at the 1:24 mark of the third when Rust snapped the puck home for a second power-play goal.

Utah equalized on Cole's 30-foot wrist shot at the 4:17 mark of the third.

Penguins: at Colorado on Monday night.

Mammoth: at Dallas on Monday night.

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) Connor Bedard scored off a rebound off a post at 3:57 of overtime to give the Chicago Blackhawks a 3-2 victory over the Utah Mammoth on Thursday night.

Bedard, Tyler Bertuzzi and Frank Nazar each had a goal and an assist and Spencer Knight stopped 29 shots to help the Blackhawks sweep the season series in their third meeting with Utah in 12 days.

Dylan Geunther and JJ Peterka scored for Utah, and Karel Vejmelka made 20 saves. The Mammoth hold the first wild card in the Western Conference - six points ahead of San Jose.

Bertuzzi tied it at 1 on a 4-on-3 power play 2:18 into the third period. He leads the NHL with 10 road power-play goals.

Nazar gave Chicago a 2-1 lead at 9:17 to extend his points streak to a career-best five games. Peterka tied it with 6:15 remaining.

Guenther opened the scoring with his 31st at 5:47 of the second.

{coyotes} Schmaltz signs 8-year, $64 million contract to remain with Mammoth

--
Puppybear.tv - Rakuten.ca - Amazon.com - Swagbucks - MyPoints - DailyRewards

Nick Schmaltz signed an eight-year, $64 million contract with the Utah Mammoth on Wednesday. It begins next season and has an average annual value of $8 million.

The 30-year-old forward ranks second on the Mammoth with 59 points (24 goals, 35 assists) in 65 games. He is plus-21 while averaging 19:42 of ice time.

Schmaltz could have become an unrestricted free agent July 1.

"We are thrilled that Nick chose Utah and wants to remain with the team for the next eight years," general manager Bill Armstrong said. "Nick is a tremendous player and person who is very deserving of this contract. We expect him to continue producing on the ice and leading our young, skilled forwards for years to come. This is another great day for Mammoth fans and our organization."

A first-round pick (No. 20) by the Chicago Blackhawks at the 2014 NHL Draft, Schmaltz has 482 points (166 goals, 316 assists) in 653 regular-season games with Chicago, the Arizona Coyotes and Utah. He does not have a point in four Stanley Cup Playoff games. 

The Mammoth (34-26-5) hold the first wild card into the playoffs from the Western Conference. They host the Blackhawks on Thursday (9 p.m. ET; Utah16, CHSN).

"There's a lot of momentum building around our team and extending Nick Schmaltz is an important part of continuing that," team governor Ryan Smith said. "Utah is becoming a true destination in the NHL, and Nick's long-term commitment reflects the excitement around what we're building here.

"We're thrilled about the role he'll continue to play on the ice and in our community."

Schmaltz is the latest core piece the Mammoth have locked up long-term; forward Logan Cooley signed an eight-year, $80 million contract ($10 million AAV) on Oct. 29 that begins next season.

{coyotes} Kaprizov, Boldy score as Wild blank Mammoth 5-0

Puppybear.tv - Rakuten.ca - Amazon.com - Swagbucks - MyPoints - DailyRewards

ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) Kirill Kaprizov scored his 37th goal of the season, Matt Boldy notched his 36th, and Filip Gustavsson earned his fourth shutout of the season as the Minnesota Wild defeated the Utah Mammoth 5-0 on Tuesday night.

Bobby Brink scored his first goal since the Wild acquired him from the Flyers on Friday. Brink, a Minnesota native, put his new team up 3-0 early in the third period.

Danila Yurov and Ryan Hartman also scored in the third.

Gustavsson stopped all 25 shots he faced. Utah's Karel Vejmelka made 25 saves in the loss.

Quinn Hughes extended his point streak with an assist, giving him one goal and five assists in his last five games.

The Mammoth thought they had the first goal after Kailer Yamamoto found the back of the net. It was waved off for goalie interference after Barrett Hayton's stick hit Gustavsson in the helmet.

After failing to score on a 5-on3, Kaprizov shot wide of the net, which bounced off the end boards. While falling forward, he fired from one knee to put the Wild up 1-0 with 5:50 remaining in the opening period.

Mammoth: Host Chicago on Thursday.

Wild: Host Philadelphia on Thursday.

CHICAGO (AP) Frank Nazar scored a power-play goal with 2:24 left in overtime to give the Chicago Blackhawks a 3-2 victory over the Utah Mammoth on Monday night.

Andrew Mangiapane scored his first goal as a Blackhawk since being acquired in a trade from Edmonton last week, and Andre Burakovsky lifted the puck on his stick lacrosse style and flicked it into the net to tie the game at 2-2 late in the second period. It was his first goal since Jan. 7, a span of 19 games.

Drew Commesso, making his third start of the season and first since Jan. 10 when he had his first career shutout in a 3-0 win over Nashville, made 22 saves. Connor Bedard had two assists for Chicago, including one on Nazar's winner.

Barrett Hayton and Dylan Guenther scored for Utah, which is battling for a wild-card playoff spot in the Western Conference and had won the first three games of a five-game road trip. Vitek Vanecek had 23 saves.

Guenther has now scored a team-leading 30 goals this season, the first time in his career he has reached that mark. He has scored in three of four games on the road trip, with six points in those contests (3 goals, 3 assists).

Chicago, which had lost three in a row including a 4-3 setback to Dallas on Sunday night, has now won all three meetings with Utah this season, with the teams' fourth and final game of the season scheduled for Thursday night.

Chicago played without Spencer Knight (illness) and Oliver Moore, who left Sunday's game in first period.

Mammoth: Visit the Minnesota Wild on Tuesday night.

Blackhawks: Visit the Utah Mammoth on Thursday night.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) Logan Cooley scored his second goal of the game at 2:08 of overtime and the Utah Mammoth overcame Columbus' tying third-period burst to beat the Columbus Blue Jackets 5-4 on Saturday night for their third straight victory.

Clayton Keller broke free on the right side in the 3-on-3 overtime, slipping a cross-ice feed through traffic to Cooley.

Utah holds the first wild-card spot in the Western Conference. The Mammoth ended Columbus' three-game winning streak and left the Blue Jackets two points out of the East's final wild card.

Michael Carcone had a goal and an assist for Utah. Kevin Stenlund and Dylan Guenther also scored, and Alexander Kerfoot had two assists. Karel Vejmelka made 27 saves.

Damon Severson, Mathieu Olivier, Adam Fantilli and Mason Marchment each had a goal and an assist for Columbus. Kirill Marchenko had two assists to extend his points streak to four games, and Charlie Coyle added two assists to push his streak to five games. Elvis Merzlikins made 18 saves.

Stenlund broke a 2-2 tie three minutes into the third, and Cooley made it 4-2 on a breakaway 1:54 later.

Fantilli and Marchment scored 30 apart to tie it, sparking a trio of fights that resulted in four major penalties. Fantilli scored with 6:22 to go, and Marchment pulled Columbus event with 5:22 remaining.

Mammoth: At Chicago on Monday night.

Blue Jackets: Host Los Angeles on Monday night.

{coyotes} Flames, Mammoth in talks over Weegar; Iginla not involved

--
Puppybear.tv - Rakuten.ca - Amazon.com - Swagbucks - MyPoints - DailyRewards

Could Mackenzie Weegar be headed to Salt Lake City?

TSN Hockey Insider Darren Dreger confirms the Calgary Flames are in trade talks with the Utah Mammoth over the veteran defenceman.

Dreger cautions that the deal is not done and also notes that Mammoth prospect Tij Iginla, son of Flames icon Jarome Iginla, is not part of any discussions.

Weegar, 32, has three goals and 20 points in 60 games with the Flames this season while averaging 23:07 of ice time.

He was acquired from the Florida Panthers, along with forwards Cole Schwindt, and Jonathan Huberdeau, and a draft pick in July of 2022 in exchange for star winger Matthew Tkachuk.

The 6-foot, right-shot defenceman is in the third season of an eight-year, $50 million contract that carries an annual cap hit of $6.25 million. He is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent at the end of the 2030-31 campaign.

Drafted 206th overall by the Panthers in 2013, Weegar has 62 goals and 271 points in 610 career games split between the Panthers and Flames.

The Ottawa native represented Canada twice at the World Hockey Championships, in 2023 and 2025. He was named the tournament's best defenceman in 2023 after recording three goals and 11 points en route to a gold-medal finish.

A 19-year-old centre from Kelowna, BC, Iginla was the sixth overall pick of the 2024 NHL Entry Draft. He has 36 goals and 35 assists this season for his hometown Kelowna Rockets of the Western Hockey League.

{coyotes} Mammoth hold off Capitals 3-2, dropping Washington 4 points back of a playoff spot

--
Puppybear.tv - Rakuten.ca - Amazon.com - Swagbucks - MyPoints - DailyRewards

WASHINGTON (AP) JJ Peterka scored in the second period on a bizarre bounce, and the Utah Mammoth beat the Washington Capitals 3-2 on Tuesday night.

Dylan Guenther and Mikhail Sergachev scored for the Mammoth, who took an early 2-0 lead and held off the Capitals in a matchup of teams near the playoff cutoff lines. Utah entered the night tied with Edmonton for the top wild card in the Western Conference.

Pierre-Luc Dubois and Ryan Leonard scored for Washington, which fell to four points behind Boston for the second wild card in the East. The Bruins also have three more games left than the Caps.

The Capitals have been hoping to add a forward before Friday's trade deadline, and with Aliaksei Protas out for personal reasons Tuesday, they struggled to apply consistent pressure in the Utah zone until they were down two in the third. It's not clear if Washington's position in the standings - and losses to Montreal and the Mammoth in its last two games - will alter the team's approach to the deadline.

Guenther scored his 28th goal of the season in the first period, then Sergachev made it 2-0 on the power play. Dubois scored for the Capitals in the final minute of the first period.

Peterka's 21st goal put the Mammoth up 3-1. With Utah on the power play, his shot from near the slot bounced off the post and off goalie Logan Thompson. When Thompson swept his glove hand back behind him, he knocked the puck into the net.

Washington's power play - a sore spot for much of this season - produced both its goals in this game, but after Leonard pulled the Capitals within one with 13:29 remaining, they were unable to tie it.

Mammoth: At Philadelphia on Thursday night.

Capitals: At Boston on Saturday.

Karel Vejmelka stopped 24 shots for Utah. The Mammoth were shut out for the first time at home this season and the fifth time overall.

Teravainen opened the scoring on a power play with 55 seconds left in the first period. He controlled the puck off a blocked shot and snapped it around Vejmelka's side.

Foligo had an unassisted goal with 8:22 remaining in the second. He caught Vejmelka out of position and put a backhander between the goalie and a defender.

Landon Slaggert snapped the puck in from 40 feet away with 6:53 left in the second, and Teravainen had a short-handed goal 1:25 into the third.

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) Lawson Crouse scored twice, U.S. Olympian Clayton Keller had a goal and two assists and the Utah Mammoth beat Minnesota 5-2 on Friday night to end the Minnesota Wild's winning streak at six games.

Logan Cooley and Barrett Hayton also scored and Karel Vejmelka made 21 saves to help the Mammoth rebound from a 4-2 home loss to NHL-leading Colorado on Wednesday night in their return from the Olympic break.

U.S. Olympian Matt Boldy scored and assisted on Kirill Kaprizov's goal for Minnesota. Second behind Central Division-rival Colorado in the West, the Wild are 9-2-1 in their last 12. They beat the Avalanche 5-2 on Thursday night in Denver.

Cooley opened the scoring with a short-handed goal with 6:37 left in the first period. The former University of Minnesota star got the puck on the right side off a deflection and put a shot between Wallstedt's legs for his 15th goal.

Keller scored his 18th at 4:26 of the second. Nick Schmaltz forced a turnover on a forecheck and fed Keller on the right side.

Crouse made it 3-0 at 7:49 of the second. He came down the middle, took a pass from Keller and beat Wallstedt with a backhander.

Kaprizov countered for Minnesota on a power play with 5:57 left in the second. He has 33 goals this season.

Hayton made it 4-1 on a power play at 1:19 of the third, and Crouse added his 16th of the season on a tip with 7:12 to go.

Boldy got his 35th of the season with 5:57 remaining.

{coyotes} Mammoth could be active prior to Deadline

--
Puppybear.tv - Rakuten.ca - Amazon.com - Swagbucks - MyPoints - DailyRewards

The Mammoth could be active prior to the Deadline, albeit not for rental players. If there is any action, however, Mammoth general manager Bill Armstrong expects it to be closer to next Friday.

"There's still more information out there for us," Armstrong told NHL.com on Friday. "And because it's so tight, I think teams, if they drop four games in a row they don't get to the record that they want, they've set kind of an agenda. And they're going to wait as long as they can to make that decision. So I do think that's why you're seeing not as many trades so far.

"Everybody expected a big flurry of deals to be discussed during the Olympic break and presented once the Olympic break roster freeze ended earlier this week. But not much was done. So I do believe it has to do with teams waiting to see how they do in the next five or so games before choosing to adjust."

The Mammoth hold the first wild card into the Stanley Cup Playoffs from the Western Conference, one point ahead of the Seattle Kraken, who hold the second wild card.
