The NHL is finally back, and next Wednesday night is expected to be a tough day for the Utah Mammoth as they will face the Colorado Avalanche at home. However, it will be relevant to note how big the impact could be on the Avalanche’s offense after their best player of the season, Nathan MacKinnon, lost the gold medal match against the USA during the Olympics.
Meanwhile, it should be noted that during the Olympics break, the Utah Mammoth took Maksymilian Szuber up from the Tucson Roadrunners, their affiliated team in the AHL. In this regard, the German/Polish defenseman is expected to reinforce the defensive strength of the Mammoth during the last matches of the season, as they currently sit in fifth place in the Western Conference’s standings.
Regarding the Colorado Avalanche, they remain the strongest contenders to lift the Presidents' Cup by the end of the regular season; however, it is important to note that they have only won four of their last ten games. With these numbers in mind, this team is expected to increase its defensive effectiveness, as they conceded four or more goals in three of their last five road games, it being concerning that teams like the Montreal Canadiens and the Ottawa Senators were able to score five or more goals.

Our Utah Mammoth vs Colorado Avalanche Prediction
As can be seen, the Colorado Avalanche established recent domination over the Utah Mammoth, but that shouldn’t cause any overconfidence in them as MacKinnon was completely nullified during their most recent game in Utah.
To conclude, even though the Colorado Avalanche are expected to sustain their offensive weight in the Western Conference for the last part of the season, their recent performance has been showing some defensive weaknesses that should be exploited by the Utah Mammoth. Therefore, the pick for the Colorado Avalanche – Utah Mammoth is: Both Teams to Score in the 1st Period - Yes!
