Utah Mammoth vs Seattle Prediction 13 December 2025
🔊 In NHL regular season action, Utah will face off against Seattle. Both teams enter this matchup in poor form, sitting in the middle of the standings.

Let's delve into what we can expect in this head-to-head clash.
Head-to-Head
📊 This season, Utah and Seattle have yet to face each other-this is their first head-to-head matchup. Last season, the teams met three times: Seattle secured two wins, while Utah claimed one victory.
Head-to-head statistics Utah Mammoth - Seattle

Utah Mammoth Team Overview
Utah's season has been inconsistent; it seems the team is still trying to find its footing after gaining a new status. In their last five games, the "Mammoths" secured two wins but conceded 11 goals. On home ice, the club has suffered three consecutive defeats, allowing even more goals-12 in total.
The team particularly struggles in the first periods, starting sluggishly and often falling behind in shots and possession. For instance, in a recent game against the Kings, they conceded two goals within 20 minutes.
The upcoming game against Seattle doesn't promise much better, given the current situation. Although in their last head-to-head at home, Utah crushed Seattle with a 7-1 victory, the team isn't exactly prolific right now. In 8 of their last 9 games, they have failed to score more than four goals. It's advisable to keep this in mind.

Seattle Kraken Team Overview
Seattle are also experiencing a prolonged slump. The team have lost six of their last seven games and have noticeably struggled with converting chances. In power plays, the Kraken have managed to score just one goal in their last three games.
Nevertheless, the team know how to impose a tight game and perform well in the second periods, which is their strong suit. However, they often face issues in the first periods: in 14 of their last 15 away games, they have been trailing after the first 20 minutes. In their most recent road game, they fell behind to Edmonton with a score of 3-2 in the first period. The final score turned out to be a blowout at 9-4.

🏒 Projected Lineups
Utah: Vejmelka - Marino, Sergachev - Peterka, Schmaltz, Keller.
Seattle: Grubauer - Larsson, Dunn - Eberle, Beniers, McCann.
🥅 Goaltenders
Karel Vejmelka faces a heavy workload during games as Utah often allows opponents to shoot from dangerous areas, putting immense pressure on the netminder. In his last three outings, he has conceded at least three goals-though not always due to his own mistakes. In a recent matchup against Florida, he stopped 88% of shots.
Joey Daccord has been one of the most consistent performers for the Kraken this season. He excels at saving shots (85-90%) and handling low plays. However, Seattle frequently struggles as a team, which negatively impacts his overall statistics.
Editorial Prediction
We believe the teams will entertain with goals, despite a rather average scoring record this season overall. Their head-to-head clashes tend to be high-scoring affairs, with a total of 21 goals in three games. Both teams play with minimal defense: Utah have conceded 10 in three games, and the Krakens have done the same. It’s likely they’ll showcase open hockey in their matchup, especially since being mid-table allows more freedom and reduces pressure. We’re looking at a total over 5.5 goals in this match.
