Central Division Rivals (Home & Away)

The Mammoth will face each Central Division opponent multiple times, with four games against most divisional foes. These are the matchups that define the playoff race:

Colorado Avalanche — A budding rivalry between two mountain-state franchises. Colorado's firepower makes every meeting a must-watch at Delta Center.

Dallas Stars — One of the West's elite. Physical, tactical, and always in the playoff picture.

Minnesota Wild — A team that battles Utah for every point in the Central standings.

Nashville Predators — A veteran-laden squad that has given the Mammoth tough games since day one.

St. Louis Blues — The Mammoth closed out their 2025–26 season against St. Louis, and the rivalry continues to build.

Chicago Blackhawks — The franchise's very first game was against Chicago on October 8, 2024. A date Utah fans will never forget.

Winnipeg Jets — A Central powerhouse that will test the Mammoth's mettle all season.

Pacific Division Opponents

Utah faces each Pacific Division team three times (24 total games), including heated matchups against:

Vegas Golden Knights — The team that eliminated Utah in the 2026 playoffs. This is personal.

Edmonton Oilers — One of the most exciting regular-season matchups on the calendar — the Mammoth's 6-5 overtime win in April 2026 was an instant classic.

Los Angeles Kings | Seattle Kraken | Vancouver Canucks | Calgary Flames | San Jose Sharks | Anaheim Ducks

Eastern Conference Matchups

The Mammoth will host all 16 Eastern Conference teams once at Delta Center and travel to each once — 32 total games. Utah Mammoth home games against Original Six franchises are always popular. Look for marquee visits from the Toronto Maple Leafs, Boston Bruins, New York Rangers, Detroit Red Wings, Montreal Canadiens, and Chicago Blackhawks. Other must-see visitors include the defending Stanley Cup champion Florida Panthers, the Pittsburgh Penguins, and the Washington Capitals.

History of the Utah Mammoth

The Utah Mammoth story begins on April 18, 2024, when the NHL Board of Governors approved the establishment of a new franchise in Salt Lake City, owned by tech entrepreneur Ryan Smith and his wife Ashley through Smith Entertainment Group. Rather than stocking the team through a traditional expansion draft, Smith acquired the hockey assets — players, coaching staff, and draft picks — of the Arizona Coyotes, which suspended operations the same day. It was an unprecedented arrangement: Utah received a roster ready to compete immediately, while the NHL retained the option to reactivate the Arizona franchise in the future. The Delta Center, already home to the Utah Jazz, would be retrofitted for hockey. A franchise was born — and Salt Lake City's appetite for NHL hockey turned out to be enormous.

The team's first season, 2024–25, was played under the temporary name "Utah Hockey Club" while a permanent identity was developed. Despite the placeholder branding, the fans showed up immediately — more than 11,000 season tickets were sold before the first puck drop. Dylan Guenther scored the franchise's first-ever goal on October 8, 2024, in a 5-2 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks at Delta Center. Clayton Keller was named the first captain. The team finished 33-38-11, missing the playoffs but establishing a passionate, vocal fan base that dubbed themselves the "Clubbers." Off the ice, fans voted in four rounds — casting more than 850,000 ballots — to choose a permanent name. On May 7, 2025, Ryan and Ashley Smith stood alongside NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman and unveiled the identity: the Utah Mammoth, honoring the ancient creatures whose fossils have been found throughout the state, including a complete skeleton discovered in Huntington Canyon in 1988. The name — deliberately singular — represents unity, strength, and an earth-shaking presence. The rallying cry: Tusks Up.

The 2025–26 season was the Mammoth's coming-out party. A redesigned Delta Center lower bowl — part of a $525 million multi-year renovation — eliminated every obstructed-view seat and expanded hockey capacity to approximately 17,000. On October 15, 2025, Tusky the mascot was unveiled before the home opener against the Calgary Flames — the first game under the Mammoth name. Keller led the team with 88 points, Guenther set a franchise record with 40 goals, and Nick Schmaltz posted a career-best 33 goals and 74 points. A five-game winning streak in late March and early April — including a thrilling 6-5 overtime win against the Edmonton Oilers, capped by Keller's goal 33 seconds into overtime — clinched the franchise's first playoff berth. Utah finished 43-33-6 with 92 points and earned the first wild card spot in the Western Conference. They fell to the Vegas Golden Knights in six games in the First Round, but not before winning their first-ever home playoff game 4-2 in Game 3. The Mammoth were hungry, and the 2026–27 season is about finishing what they started. Grab your Utah Mammoth tickets at GoTickets and be part of the charge.

Memorable Mammoth Moments

October 8, 2024 — The Very First Game

Dylan Guenther scored the first goal in franchise history as Utah defeated the Chicago Blackhawks 5-2 at Delta Center. Clayton Keller, newly named the team's first captain, added a goal and an assist. A sellout crowd roared as NHL hockey arrived in Salt Lake City — and it was clear from the opening faceoff that this city was ready.

May 7, 2025 — "A New Ice Age Dawns"

After 13 months and more than 850,000 fan votes, the permanent identity was revealed: Utah Mammoth. The Mountain Mammoth primary logo — featuring the Wasatch Mountains on its crown and a tusk curving upward to form a "U" — was unveiled alongside the team's custom typeface, Mammoth Sans, and the rallying cry Tusks Up. The name honors the mammoth herds that roamed Utah more than 10,000 years ago, with fossils found at Bear Lake, Fillmore, Park City, and Huntington Canyon.

October 15, 2025 — The First Game as the Mammoth

Tusky the mascot made his debut, the Mountain Mammoth logo hit center ice for the first time, and the Delta Center unveiled its renovated lower bowl — full sightlines for every seat, 17,000 fans, and an atmosphere that shook the building. The Mammoth hosted the Calgary Flames in their first game under the permanent name. A new era in Utah hockey was officially underway.

April 9, 2026 — Clinching the Franchise's First Playoff Berth

After a five-game winning streak that included four victories over playoff-contending teams, the Mammoth clinched the first wild card spot and their first-ever postseason appearance. Captain Clayton Keller's overtime winner against the Edmonton Oilers on April 8 — 33 seconds into extra time — was the exclamation point on a late-season surge. Dylan Guenther's 40th goal made him the first Mammoth player to reach that milestone.

April 2026 — First Playoff Home Win

Facing the Vegas Golden Knights in the First Round, the Mammoth won Game 3 at Delta Center by a score of 4-2 — the first home playoff victory in franchise history. Though Vegas ultimately won the series in six games, the Mammoth's competitive effort and the deafening atmosphere inside the Delta Center made one thing clear: this franchise is built for the long haul.

The Mammoth Experience

Tusks Up

If you haven't been to a Utah Mammoth home game yet, you're missing one of the most electric atmospheres in the NHL. From the moment the doors open at Delta Center, the energy builds — the pre-game light show, Tusky working the crowd, the "Tusks Up" rallying cry echoing through 17,000 fans. The Mammoth faithful — many of whom still proudly call themselves "Clubbers" in honor of the inaugural season — are loud, passionate, and deeply invested. The team's Rock Black, Salt White, and Mountain Blue color scheme is everywhere, and the sea of Mammoth jerseys in the lower bowl is a sight to behold.

Delta Center

Delta Center is a multi-purpose indoor arena located in downtown Salt Lake City, serving as the home of the Utah Mammoth (NHL) and the Utah Jazz (NBA). Originally opened on October 4, 1991, the arena was privately financed by Utah businessman Larry H. Miller at a cost of $93 million. The venue has undergone multiple name changes — Delta Center (1991–2006), EnergySolutions Arena (2006–2015), Vivint Arena (2015–2023), and back to Delta Center in 2023 under a new long-term agreement with Delta Air Lines.

In April 2025, Smith Entertainment Group launched a $525 million multi-year renovation to transform Delta Center into a world-class dual-sport venue — the most extensive overhaul in its history. Phase one, completed in October 2025, rebuilt the lower bowl with a state-of-the-art retractable riser system that accommodates a 12-foot variance in elevation between hockey and basketball configurations, eliminating all obstructed-view seats for hockey and expanding capacity to approximately 17,000 (up from 11,131). Future phases will add a new east-facing entrance and plaza, redesigned upper bowl, expanded club spaces, and a 450-stall parking structure — all scheduled for completion by October 2027. The Delta Center is also slated to serve as a venue for the 2034 Salt Lake City Winter Olympics. Today, it hosts over 320 events annually and stands at the center of a broader revitalization plan for downtown Salt Lake City.

Parking & Transportation

Parking is available in multiple lots and garages surrounding Delta Center. A new 450-stall parking structure is under construction as part of the renovation project and will be reserved for premium season ticket holders. The most popular alternative is the Utah Transit Authority's TRAX light rail system, which stops directly at the arena. Multiple bus routes also serve the downtown area. Delta Center is located approximately 15 minutes from Salt Lake City International Airport, two blocks from the Salt Palace Convention Center, and within walking distance of hotels, restaurants, and Temple Square.
