Pressure mounts for the Utah Mammoths as the playoff race intensifies—will Mikhail Sergachev anchor a deep postseason run, or crack under the spotlight? Tom Callahan and Robyn Leaño dissect the biggest pressure points across the Mammoths’ roster and organization, calling out Brandon Tanev’s quiet season, Kyler Yamamoto’s fight for NHL stability, and Michael Carcone’s make-or-break “prove-it” deal. With high expectations set from day one, Utah’s high-paid blueliner Sergachev faces scrutiny for his risky play, as the hosts debate whether his two-way game can be the x-factor the Mammoths need.

Discussion heats up around head coach André Tourigny’s future and if he can shed the “rebuild” label for playoff credibility at Delta Center. Key matchups against the Colorado Avalanche and the volatile Pacific Division loom large. Can the Mammoth hold onto their wildcard spot, or are early exits inevitable? Get all the insight and playoff implications in this action-packed Locked On Mammoth breakdown.
