Logan Cooley's Two-Goal Night Sets Up Mammoth's Rematch With Kraken at Climate Pledge
The Utah Mammoth are rolling into Climate Pledge Arena Thursday night riding high after Logan Cooley went off for two goals in their dominant 6-2 win over Los Angeles. Now they're back to face the Seattle Kraken for the third time this season, and the Kraken need to figure out how to slow down a team that's absolutely clicking when it counts.
The Mammoth Are Humbling the Kraken This Season
Let's not dance around it: Utah owns this matchup. The Mammoth beat Seattle 6-3 back in January with Nate Schmidt lighting the lamp twice, and now they're coming back for round three on Thursday at 10 p.m. EDT. The Kraken are sitting at 32-30-11 overall with a 17-14-5 home record. That's not the kind of form that's going to stop a team like Utah, which is 38-30-6 and absolutely lethal when they get rolling. Utah is 19-16-3 on the road, which means they're plenty dangerous away from home.

Here's what's brutal about Utah's game: they're 36-10-0 when they score three or more goals. That's playoff-level efficiency. Clayton Keller is putting up video game numbers with 22 goals and 51 assists for the Mammoth. Dylan Guenther has scored six goals with an assist in his last 10 games. For Seattle, Chandler Stephenson is carrying the load with 15 goals and 29 assists. Bobby McMann has seven goals and four assists over the last 10 games.
Over their last 10 games, the Kraken are sitting at 3-5-2, averaging 2.7 goals per game while giving up 3.1. Utah's been slightly better at 4-5-1 with 3.2 goals for and 3.2 against. Not exactly a huge gap, but the Mammoth have the momentum and the track record against Seattle this year.
Who's In, Who's Out
The Kraken have Ryan Winterton out with illness and Shane Wright as day to day with an undisclosed injury. Utah's missing Barrett Hayton (upper-body), but with the firepower they've got, it's not slowing them down much.
Puck drops Thursday night at Climate Pledge. Tickets start at $34. This is the kind of game where Seattle needs to find an answer, and fast.
