The Utah Royals just got their second win of the season five games into 2026. For comparison, it took 13 games in 2024 and 18 in 2025 to reach two wins. Progress.

Well folks, the time has come. After an amazing 3.5 years at KSL.com I was told this morning my position is being eliminated. But on the plus side, I finally get to fulfill my dream of spending way too much time on LinkedIn! Open to any and all moves going forward

Sunday marked the official one-month mark of the NHL season for the Utah Mammoth. With a big enough sample size to move beyond the "still too early" naysayers, it is safe to say the story of the season so far for the Mammoth is 29-year-old forward Nick Schmaltz.

Utah Royals defender Madison Pogarch is heading into free agency and will likely not be returning to the Royals. “I've obviously loved my time here. It's just not looking that way at the time. So I feel closer to closing the chapter than anything.”

End of season presser with Jimmy Coenraets and Kelly Cousins, who was just extended as Utah Royals’ sporting director. The team instituted a new “Royals Way” mission statement in June that both feel helped the team to a 5-3-5 finish to 2025.

We just heard a huge applause from the Royals locker room and I’m pretty sure it was for this lol. Well deserved for Mina!

Current and former Utah Mammoth players alike called Clayton Keller the most underrated player in the NHL in recent days. He backed up the praise with an overtime game winner in a victory on the road against the Buffalo Sabres on Tuesday, moving Utah to 9-4 on the season and 3-0 in overtime games.

Just seeing this @utahroyalsfc.com sweatshirt Po had on yesterday and I’m gonna need some more merch like this

BYU football didn't even play a game this week and moved up two spots to No. 8 in the AP Top 25. @calebturner.ksl.com talks about the weekend's results and discusses BYU football and men's basketball both being ranked No. 8 in the nation heading into a big week for the Cougars' flagship programs.

Logan Cooley is just getting started in Utah. The 21-year-old third overall pick in the 2022 NHL draft signed an eight-year, $80 million contract extension Wednesday with the Utah Mammoth to remain in the Beehive State through 2033.

All 32 teams were in action Tuesday for the NHL's "Frozen Frenzy" event, and the league's two longest win streaks did not survive the night.

There are two kinds of streaking in sports, and we're talking about the good kind. @calebturner.ksl.com breaks down the current win streaks by the Utah Mammoth and BYU Cougars and asks the question: whose is more impressive?

The Utah Mammoth went international for the first time this season in Winnipeg and didn't skip a beat, extending their win streak to seven games on Sunday.

Utah got its sixth win in a row, a 6-2 victory, over the Minnesota Wild on the road Saturday to tie the New Jersey Devils at the top of the NHL standings with 14 points.

Goodnight.

Major League Soccer and its playoff structure have changed a lot over the last four years, but one thing has remained the same: Real Salt Lake can't make it beyond its first matchup.

Dylan Guenther was speaking postgame when suddenly a surprising face appeared at the rear of the media scrum. It was Utah rookie Dmitri Simashev, raising his hand to ask his teammate a question. The smiles and laughs that ensued were signs of a home win streak and some of the best Mammoth vibes.

I think SEG forgot to add one crucial part to its new South Town campus map

Utah Royals defender Imani Dorsey calls it a career at 29. She was the 5th overall pick in the 2018 NWSL Draft and named the 2018 Rookie of the Year. Dorsey ruptured her Achilles tendon in her second game as a Royal last year, but came back to play in 16 games this year.

The Utah Jazz are moving a little south. Well, at least their practice facility is. Smith Entertainment Group announced Tuesday plans for a new training center to be built on the east side of The Shops at South Town in Sandy.

Dylan Guenther scored his second game-winner of the year and 11th in the No. 11 Utah jersey to give the Mammoth a 3-0 start at home with a 3-2 win over the Boston Bruins.

Real Salt Lake rebounded from a disastrous first half of the season to rattle off eight of its 12 wins over the final 17 games to squeak into the ninth and final Western Conference playoff spot on MLS Decision Day on Saturday.

After every NHL game, three players who performed well are selected as the "stars of the game," but sometimes you need more than three stars to fully encapsulate what goes down on the ice. That's where "Three More Stars" comes in, offering three alternative best parts of Utah Mammoth games.

The Utah Mammoth put up 23 shots and won 55% of faceoffs — thanks in part to the return of center Barrett Hayton — but scored just one goal against a Chicago Blackhawks team that had conceded at least three goals to every opponent before Monday in its 0-3 start to the season.

The Utah Mammoth announced Monday that defenseman Sean Durzi is expected to miss four weeks with an upper-body injury after taking a hit in the team's overtime win over Nashville on Saturday.

It wasn't pretty, but the Utah Mammoth got their first win of the 2025-26 season Saturday in Nashville. And, once again, it was thanks to Dylan "game-winner" Guenther.

The Utah Mammoth were tied for the second-most fights in the NHL last season with 30 and forward Jack McBain was tied for fourth individually with eight tussles to his name. If the preseason is any indicator, that rate isn't slowing down anytime soon.

The Utah Mammoth started training camp with 66 players, but have whittled it down to 23 ahead of the start of the NHL season on Thursday.

One streak ended while another continued for the Utah Royals. The local NWSL side still has not lost a game since Aug. 8, with a 2-2 draw in Chicago, that extends the unbeaten streak to eight games. It looked like Utah would also extend its win streak to four games, but the Stars tied it late.

Jimmy Coenraets: "I think Kale will be probably end of season. I think she pulled a hammy, so we'll see what happens. But yeah, I think it's fair to say we have to rule her out for next week."

Red Stars Interim Head Coach Anders Jacobson on what happened after the whistle

Based on the coaches needing to be kept separate after the final whistle, I'm gonna guess that postgame press conferences will be fun today

Utah Royals head coach Jimmy Coenraets had a heated exchange with someone at the end of this one

Mina Tanaka breaks the deadlock in Chicago after 58 minutes to give the Utah Royals a 1-0 lead. She now leads the team with four goals on the season.

It took six tries, but the Utah Mammoth finally got a win this preseason. Lawson Crouse contributed an assist and a goal to help Utah to a 2-1 win over the Los Angeles Kings on Thursday at the first Delta Center event held since April.

Andre Tourigny's teams have improved their record in each of his four years as head coach of the Arizona Coyotes and now the Utah Mammoth. Can this year's squad take yet another leap from the 38-31-13 year the Mammoth put up in their inaugural season in Utah?

This season marks the end of Claudia's amazing soccer career 🥹💛 We're so honored to have been a part of her journey!!
