Utah Mammoth: stronger record, but defensive absences
Recent form and away performance
Utah has won four of its last five games. It scored and conceded in every game, including identical 5:4 home wins over Toronto and Pittsburgh. Away wins at Buffalo and Edmonton produced 8 goals for and 3 against. Utah has scored 38 league goals and conceded 31.
Lineup situation and tactical balance
Michael Carcone is out indefinitely with an upper-body injury. Defenceman Maveric Lamoureux will miss four to six months after shoulder surgery. John Marino missed the Pittsburgh game with an upper-body injury; his status for Seattle is unspecified. The defensive absences reduce Utah’s options against Seattle’s attack.
Head coach André Tourigny praised goaltender Sebastian Cossa and the fourth line after the Pittsburgh win. Tourigny has begun rotating his goaltenders more evenly and used Cossa in that game.
Utah scored four or more goals in four of its last five matches. Edmonton scored six in Utah’s only defeat in that stretch after beating the first pressure.

Our Prediction
Our bet is 2X at 1.38. Utah Mammoth have won four of their last five NHL games, scoring 20 goals and conceding 17, while Seattle have taken three wins in the same span with a 18:20 goal balance. The home side has conceded at least three goals in all five matches, including an 8:3 defeat in Florida, and has lost two of its last five.
The matchup history adds weight to the visitors: Utah won four of the six recent meetings and took each of the last four, scoring 24 goals against Seattle’s 9. Utah will miss Michael Carcone, Maveric Lamoureux and possibly John Marino, according to media reports, but its attack has scored in every recent game. The market also gives the visitors the strongest outcome probability at 47.7%, with the away line shortening. A likely score is 3:4, which fits the 2X selection.
Conclusion
2X at 1.38 covers Utah’s stronger recent record, head-to-head advantage and Seattle’s recurring defensive problems. Even with defensive absences, the Mammoth have enough attacking production to avoid defeat in Seattle.
