Key Player vs. Player Matchups
Robert Thomas / Jimmy Snuggerud / Dylan Holloway vs. Utah’s depleted defense: Blues’ top skill line against a blue line missing key pieces; Thomas has strong historical production in this matchup.
Clayton Keller and remaining Utah forwards vs. Blues structure (Parayko, Broberg, etc.): Utah’s offensive talent tested against St. Louis’s improved defensive play of late.
Special teams: Utah boasts an elite power play (near 36%), while St. Louis has a solid penalty kill (around 85%). Blues’ PP is more average; Utah’s PK ranks near the bottom.
Goaltending: Joel Hofer (strong GAA/SV% this season) versus Karel Vejmelka. Rest edge favors Hofer and the Blues.
Faceoffs and structure will matter in a potential low-to-mid event game.
Recent Team Forms
Blues (last 10 approximately 5-4-1): Snapped a losing streak with the Detroit win. They have shown better defensive results recently and hold a positive road record in some recent Delta Center visits. Scoring is balanced around Snuggerud and Thomas.
Mammoth (last 10 approximately 4-5-1): Three-game skid, including the back-to-back loss. Offensive numbers remain solid overall, but defensive and special-teams consistency (especially PK) has lagged. Injuries have compounded the recent struggles.
Series History
This is the first meeting of the 2026-27 season. In 2025-26 the teams split the series 2-2, with St. Louis taking the most recent matchup (Robert Thomas hat trick in a 5-3 win). Blues have performed respectably in recent visits to the Delta Center.
Betting Trends
Totals sit near 5.5–6.5, reflecting mixed defensive profiles and Utah’s higher goals-for rate. The back-to-back and injuries temper Utah’s home edge.
St. Louis’s rest advantage, more complete available roster, and Utah’s mounting injuries tilt a close, competitive game toward the visitors. The Mammoth’s power play keeps the upset live, but the Blues are better positioned to capitalize on the road.
