CrouseYearinReview

Utah Mammoth associate captain Lawson Crouse had a significant year on and off the ice. Whether it was matching previous career-highs, or showing off his hometown, let’s take a look back at Crouse’s 2025-26 season.

On the Ice

Crouse was a constant on the ice for the Mammoth. He played 81 games, scored 24 goals, and added 20 assists for 44 points. He had four game winning goals and averaged 16:36 of ice time per game.

During the 2025-26 season, Crouse matched his career-highs in games played, goals, and game winning goals. He was one assist and one point back from tying his career-high in both categories. He also set a new career-high in +/- at +20. By hitting 20+ goals during the 2025-26 campaign, Crouse has reached that benchmark four times in the last five years.

In addition to his regular season production, Crouse also showed up strong in the postseason. Crouse played all six of the Mammoth’s playoff games. He had three goals and two assists for five points, which tied the team-lead in points. Crouse averaged 21:33 time on ice for the postseason which was five minutes higher than his regular season average.

Crouse also hit a significant milestone last season when he played his 600th career NHL game on Nov. 8 against the Montreal Canadiens. He scored one of Utah’s goals that night.

All-In Award

After the final game of the regular season, Utah held its annual end of season team awards, the Utah Mammoth Honors. The All-In Award, which is voted on by the fans, goes to the player who ‘leaves it all on the ice.’  Crouse won this highly-regarded award for the 2025-26 season.

Back Home

Every offseason, the Crouse family returns to Ontario for family time and training. In this episode of Break the Ice, Crouse goes around his hometown of Mt. Brydges and shares more about his journey.
