The Mammoth were already a strong defensive team, and they got even better with the addition of veteran defenseman Mackenzie Weegar on Wednesday. Weegar won’t light up the score sheet, but he brings a great physical presence and plenty of experience to a hungry Utah team looking to make a postseason run. The Mammoth rank 5th in the NHL allowing just 26.0 shot on goal per game, and life is now a bit more difficult for their opponents with Weegar in the mix. The Flyers are averaging 2.5 goals per game in 4 games since the Olympic break, and 2 of their 10 goals came past regulation time. Look for Utah’s solid defensive structure and reliable goaltending from Karel Vejmelka to stymie the Philadelphia offensive attack.

Utah’s offensive core is plenty talented, but they have struggled with consistency this season – especially on the road. More specifically, Utah’s goals per game average drops from 3.40 at home to 2.94 on the road. The Flyers are a tough team to play against under the leadership of head coach Rick Tocchet, and they have allowed just 5 total goals over their last 3 games entering this contest. I expect ice space to be limited on both ends, which has the makings of a low-scoring affair. With a total of 5.5, the under is the play.
