Central Division clash
Two seemingly playoff-bound division foes will meet up on Monday, with the Stars currently second in the Central Division and the Mammoth in fourth.
They’re not exactly bunkmates, though.
The Stars have left the Mammoth in their dust with their recent streak, now a full 20 points ahead of Utah in the standings. They’re six ahead of third-place Minnesota.
Monday is the fourth and final matchup of the regular season between Dallas and Utah.
Johnston record incoming?
Wyatt Johnston enters Monday’s contest riding a six-game point streak against the Mammoth, earning seven points (3 goals, 4 assists) during that span. He’s recorded points in all but one career game played against them.
That’s notable, with Johnston sitting on the brink of a franchise record. He’s currently tied with NorthStars forward Dino Ciccarelli at 22 power play goals, the franchise record for most in a season. One more goal for Johnston on the man-advantage and the record is his.
Gutsy Guenther
Mammoth forward Dylan Guenther registered two goals in Utah’s last game on Saturday against the Pittsburgh Penguins and now has nine points (6, 3) in his last seven games played, dating back to March 3. In 65 games played this season, Guenther has recorded 58 points (33, 25), ranking third on the team in scoring.
