The Utah Mammoth's training camp is underway, aiming to finalize their roster ahead of the season. Currently, the team has 22 one-way contracts, leaving one spot likely for Dmitri Simashev. Young players Tij Iginla, Caleb Desnoyers, Daniil But, and Maveric Lamoureux are competing for limited openings amid a roster of established veterans. Both Lamoureux and But show promise, but must prove themselves to secure their positions. Cuts will need to be made as the Mammoth prepare for the upcoming season.
