Utah’s Art of Bouncing Back
The Art of Bouncing Back makes an appearance for a reason. Austin looks at Utah’s response after Philadelphia, the shuffled lineup in Toronto and why moving on from a loss deserves its own Hidden Gem. Then it’s time for mountain blue, tusk shoulders and a Hometown Remix sweater he badly wants in his closet.Hidden Gem presented by Jonathan’s Jewelry: https://www.slcpuck.com/hidden-gemSupport SLC Puck: https://slcpuck.shop/The Next Shift Project: https://slcpuck.shop/collections/the-next-shift-projectSLC Puck+: https://www.patreon.com/slcpuckRecorded November 4, 2026.

Logan Cooley Is Pittsburgh’s Worst Nightmare
Logan Cooley came home to Pittsburgh and turned the night into a horror movie for the Penguins.A hat trick. A tying goal in the final second. Mikhail Sergachev finishing it in overtime. Austin makes the case for this being the most exciting win in Mammoth history—and explains why it felt like a glimpse of the player Cooley can become.The Hidden Gem is the play before the chaos: Vincent Trocheck’s faceoff win that let Utah get possession, bring on the extra attacker and give Cooley one more chance.Also in this episode: a traffic-cone costume, a badly timed nap, the road trip ahead and another round of superstar trade speculation around Utah.Support the show at https://slcpuck.shop/ and explore The Next Shift Project at https://slcpuck.shop/collections/the-next-shift-project.

Utah Mammoth Need Line Stability
The Utah Mammoth lost 3-1 to Minnesota, but this wasn’t just about one bad night. Austin’s main takeaway is that the penalties absolutely buried Utah — 29 penalty minutes, seven Wild power plays, and two Minnesota power-play goals — while Utah’s own power play went 0-for-4.But the bigger issue is what this game exposed: Utah keeps shuffling lines instead of letting real top-six chemistry build. Austin argues the Keller-Schmaltz and Cooley-Guenther duos are obvious, and now the Mammoth need to stop scrambling and commit to the right complementary piece.Subscribe and listen here: full episode This is a public episode.

Adrian Denny on Utah’s Goalies
Austin brought in Adrian Denny for a very specific conversation: the Mammoth goaltending panic, the trade that never happened, and whether fans should actually be freaking out after the Seattle loss.Adrian’s big argument is that Utah’s front office isn’t operating on impulse. Bill Armstrong is checking on everything, Utah can be in every rumor because it’s a destination and has assets, but that doesn’t mean the team should blow up its cap flexibility because people got spooked by a bad three-game save percentage stretch.Subscribe for more SLC Puck, and listen to the full episode here.

Connor Hellebuyck Feels Real
Utah lost 5-3 in Seattle, and Austin’s whole point is that this team keeps making life harder than it has to be because it isn’t getting the best goaltending on the ice. Seattle got a .917 night from Philipp Grubauer, while Karel Vejmelka stopped 18 of 22 for an .818 save percentage, and that keeps fitting a bad trend.Over Utah’s last three games, Austin says the Mammoth goalies have posted a combined .774 save percentage while opposing goalies are at .892. That’s why the Connor Hellebuyck conversation suddenly feels a lot less theoretical and a lot more urgent.Subscribe for more SLC Puck and listen to the full episode. This is a public episode.

Utah’s Goaltending Problem
Utah split the Edmonton set, which should feel pretty good on paper: a 4-2 win in Edmonton, then a 6-2 faceplant in Salt Lake City. But the real point of the episode is simpler than the scorelines: this team looks good enough to matter, and the goaltending still looks like the thing that could drag it back to earth.Austin also gives Kailer Yamamoto his flowers after a goal, 3 assists, and instant-impact minutes since Michael Carcone went week-to-week, while asking the uncomfortable Karel Vejmelka question out loud. The power play is still humming at 35.3%, the 5-on-5 process looks strong, and Utah might be better than its raw goals say. But if the crease stays shaky, that’s the conversation.Subscribe and listen for the full Edmonton fallout and the big goalie debate. This is a public episode.

Utah Mammoth Top the NHL
The Utah Mammoth are officially the top net-rated team in the NHL, which is both hilarious and very real. Austin digs into what’s driving it: a 5-2-0 start, 27 goals scored, a plus-8 goal differential, and a win over Toronto where Utah survived despite going 0-for-4 on the power play and watching Dylan Guenther live in the penalty box.Then it turns into the real test: two straight against Edmonton. Connor McDavid has 17 points in 6 games, Evan Bouchard somehow has 14 points from the blue line, and the Oilers are averaging 4.8 goals per game. If Utah wants to keep this net-rating throne, the path is simple and terrifying: stay out of the box.Subscribe and listen for the full breakdown. This is a public episode.

Logan Cooley Has To Shoot
The main thing from this episode: Utah coming home with 6 of 10 points on a five-game trip is good, but the bigger issue is Logan Cooley still not having a goal through six games. Austin’s case is pretty direct — Cooley himself admitted he hasn’t been enough of a shooting threat, and the Buffalo 2-on-1 was the clearest example yet.Utah’s power play is humming at 10-for-25 and the overall process at 5-on-5 actually looks strong, but Cooley’s even-strength mindset has to change. He’s been a really useful distributor on the power play, yet if he wants to be in that top young-star tier, he has to start taking the shot when it’s there and burying chances like that one against Buffalo.Subscribe for more SLC Puck and listen to the full episode for the full road-trip recap and the Cooley breakdown.
