What does Utah have to do to win?

Tonight, the Utah Mammoth finish their six-game road trip by facing the Vegas Golden Knights. The Mammoth have gone 2-2-1 thus far and have struggled to play a consistent brand of hockey.

Simply put, it comes down to better goaltending. The Utah Mammoth have had terrible goalie play through the first 18 games of the season, especially from Karel Vejmelka. The Mammoth don't have a chance against a talented team like Vegas unless they get some better goaltending. The defense also needs to improve.

It would be really nice to see Vejmelka or Sebastian Cossa perform well tonight.

The Prediction:

Record Tracker (8-5-1)

I have to take the Mammoth once again. This downward trend needs to stop. Obviously, bad goaltending again won't help, but this offense is also powerful.

Good teams correct their mistakes during not-so-great stretches, and the Mammoth are in one right now. I also think that Utah is a good team. Perhaps the Mammoth get a great game from Logan Cooley again or a breakout performance from Anders Lee or Vincent Trocheck, but either way, the Mammoth are going to take a win against Vegas.
