Game Notes​

UTA -Karel Vejmelka will likely start for the Mammoth -The Utah Mammoth so fare aren't faring too much better than the Utah Hockey Club. They are currently on pace for a few less points than their inaugural season, but due to the strength of the West right now their playoff chances are still alive as they sit 9th in the conference

TOR -Dennis Hildeby will start for the Leafs -Nick Robertson of course left Monday's game against Colorado after blocking a shot. Berube did not have an update on him in post-game so his status is unclear at this time

Not sure why we heard Stolarz is on this trip with the team if he isn’t scheduled to play? Maybe Thursday against Marner and the Knights?

These kind of back to back make me nervous, get up and play well against a top contender and fall flat the next night against lower team, lets get er done!!

He's still on the IR, for one. He's skating and practicing with the team, but he's not quite ready for game action yet. This is not a particularly unusual situation for a player who is close to returning but not ready yet.

Part of the Return to Play process is just getting back into the rhythms and relationships of being with the team. Many players who have been off a long time with injury say the worst part is being away from the team. Practices and team meetings (to catch up with the tactical changes) and just being present are all helpful to hit the ground running when ready. I don't think he's back this week as they don't even have a timeline, nor have they said anything about what the issue was.
