    56. To Hellebuyck and Back (Featuring: Randon & Julian)

    Utah Mammoth Goalie Debate: Connor Hellebuyck Trade, Kailer Yamamoto & Playoff Outlook The Utah Mammoth are winning, but the fanbase is melting down anyway. On this episode of Slapshot Utah, Leroy and Jahn unpack the Twitter firestorm around goalie drama, the Connor Hellebuyck trade that never happened, and whether Utah should really be panicking over goaltending. Joined by Julian from 99.6 The Howl and Randon from The Two Line Pass Podcast, the crew debates what the Mammoth need most right now: a blockbuster trade, more patience, or a little less online chaos. Julian explains why he thinks pursuing Hellebuyck could have cost too much of Utah’s future, why he’s coming around on Kailer Yamamoto as a momentum-shifting spark, and why the goalie numbers may improve as the season goes on. Randon makes the case that elite goaltending can change a team’s season—and that Utah’s window to contend may be opening sooner than some fans expect. In this episode: The Utah Mammoth’s goaltending and defensive struggles The Connor Hellebuyck trade debate and its potential cost Kailer Yamamoto’s impact and early-season performance Utah’s power play, penalty kill, and team identity Logan Cooley, Clayton Keller, and the Mammoth’s offensive potential Whether Utah can compete with Minnesota and the Central Division If you follow Utah Mammoth hockey, NHL trade rumors, or the debate over how close this team is to contention, this episode is for you.

    55. Mammoth Momentum is Real

    The Utah Mammoth are looking more dangerous, more confident, and a lot more complete—and this week’s conversation makes the case that the league should be paying attention. Jahn and Leroy break down the team’s latest stretch, from the energy inside the new Delta Center to the growing belief that Utah is no longer just happy to be here.They dig into what’s changed around the rink, why the crowd feels different, and how a 90–10 home-ice vibe is replacing the old 50–50 nights. The new Delta Center gets a full verdict too: better sightlines, smoother entry, easier movement, and a building that feels ready for a real hockey market. There’s also plenty of fan-life chaos, including Big Willie’s, Halloween-party adventures, and a few too many drinks to count.You’ll hear:Why the Mammoth’s home atmosphere has shifted from novelty to expectationWhat Jahn noticed at his first game in the new Delta CenterHow the building changes are improving the fan experienceWhy Utah’s special teams are becoming a major talking pointThe players driving the surge, including Nick Schmaltz, Clayton Keller, Mikhail Sergachev, John Marino, Dylan Guenther, and Karel VejmelkaLeroy weighs in on the bigger hockey picture: the confidence in the room, the physical edge, how Utah is handling adversity, and why ugly losses no longer feel like an identity crisis. Jahn asks what this hot start really means, whether the goaltending future is taking shape, and why this team feels hungrier than in its first two seasons.For a sharp, funny, unapologetically Utah-focused breakdown of a team that suddenly feels built to win, this episode is essential listening for Mammoth fans, hockey junkies, and anyone curious about why the whole building feels different when Utah is rolling. @SlapshotUtah @LeroySLC @iminthe801 Hosted on Acast.

    54. We are SO back

    The Utah Mammoth are in first place—and the early-season proof is getting harder to ignore. Nick Schmaltz is torching the league, the power play is suddenly a weapon, and after a wild stretch of wins, losses, and bounce-backs, Leroy and Jahn ask the big question: are the Mammoth built to shock the Central Division? Recorded live from Big Willie’s VIP Lounge, this episode brings the energy of a fanbase that believes something special is happening. The guys break down the loss to the New York Rangers, the win over the New Jersey Devils, the Boston blowout that sent fans into panic mode, and the bounce-back against the Buffalo Sabres. They also get into Utah Mammoth goaltending, Jack McBain’s growing enforcer role, Nick Schmaltz’s hot start, and the depth players who could help keep the team in the mix. Is Utah a real contender—or is it too early to call? Leroy and Jahn share their unfiltered takes. Then the conversation turns to the future of Major League Baseball in Utah, including a spirited debate about Ryan Smith, the Miller Group, and who can bring baseball to Salt Lake City.

    52. Mammoth Season Predictions

    The Utah Mammoth preseason finally gives Slapshot Utah something real to chew on, and the early read is loud: the young guys are pushing, the chemistry looks sharper, and a few names are making this roster conversation a lot more interesting. If you want the clearest take on what actually mattered from these games, this is the one to hear. Jahn and Leroy break down the biggest preseason signals without getting fooled by the scoreboard. Daniel But is already turning heads with his size, his presence in the blue paint, and the kind of net-front energy that can change a lineup fast. Spicy Tuna is suddenly flashing goal-scoring touch, Logan Cooley is trying new things with the puck, and the team as a whole looks more fluid than it did before camp. You’ll also hear why the Avalanche game stood out, what the overtime loss to Vegas really revealed, and why Leroy keeps coming back to one idea: preseason results matter less than player performance, vibe, and who is starting to look ready right now. The conversation gets into the details that actually tell you something, like board passes, timing, spacing, and which prospects are beginning to play like they belong. This episode is for anyone trying to separate hype from actual progress. The preseason can be noisy, but there are real clues hiding in these minutes if you know what to look for—and Jahn and Leroy are watching closely. Joined in the end by the legendary Puckstradamus. Lets see if that crystal ball even works! Perfect for Utah Mammoth fans who want the "smartest", but most honest preseason read before the real games begin. #tusksup #utahmammoth #utah #hockey #podcast @SlapshotUtah @LeroySLC @iminthe801 Hosted on Acast.

They also break down the season's biggest memories on and off the ice, including Mackenzie Weegar's first playoff goal, Logan Cooley's four-goal outburst, Dylan Guenther's New Year's Day hat trick, and the kind of emotional, once-in-a-lifetime moment that made the entire year feel bigger than sports. Along the way, they talk about tailgates, the Heber Creeper, awkward online shopping for big guys, and why college football chaos somehow feels right at the start of hockey season.
