Status report
The Mammoth held an optional morning skate Wednesday. … Utah coach Andre Tourigny hinted that the team will have a few game-time decisions regarding forwards Yamamoto and Guenther, who has sat out the past two practices, and defenseman Schmidt. … Hanifin is week to week, per Golden Knights coach Ryan Craig after sustaining an injury in a 4-1 victory against the Buffalo Sabres on Sunday…. Wotherspoon will enter the lineup after missing the past 13 games with an upper-body injury. … Connelly is expected to start on the first line, while Howden and Barbashev bump down to the second and third lines, respectively.
