Match Details
- Date: 2025-11-27
- Time: 2:40 AM UTC

Game Overview
The Utah Mammoth will host the Montréal Canadiens in an NHL regular season match. Utah holds a 12-8-3 record and plays at home with a strong 7-2-1 home record, while Montréal is 11-7-3 overall and 5-2-2 on the road. Both teams are competitive in their respective divisions with Utah in the Central and Montréal in the Atlantic. This game marks a key divisional cross-over matchup where Montreal is slight underdog despite a solid away performance.
Key Factors to Consider
- Utah Mammoth have been consistent at home, especially recently with a 7-2-1 home record. Montréal Canadiens have a decent away form (5-2-2), but their recent trades and inconsistent scoring could impact performance. Utah’s offense has been productive, led by key players like Schmaltz who recently delivered a strong 4-goal performance in a prior game. Defensive solidity and goaltending quality will be crucial.
- The two teams previously met on Nov 8, 2025, with Montréal securing a 6-2 victory over Utah at Montréal’s arena. This recent dominant win gives the Canadiens some psychological edge, though home advantage favors Utah this time.
- No significant injury updates have been reported specifically for this game; both teams appear to have their core players available, ensuring a full-strength match-up.
- Utah plays at home, which historically improves their outcomes. Travel fatigue could slightly affect Montréal given their road schedule preceding the match. Weather and arena conditions are typical for NHL venues with no reported disruptions.
- Utah aims to improve their strong home record and capitalize on recent momentum. Montréal looks to avenge their recent loss to Utah at home and maintain playoff positioning, potentially increasing motivation for a strong away performance.
