SALT LAKE CITY - Following a meaningless loss to the St. Louis in game 82 of the regular season, the Utah Mammoth announced their 2025-26 End of Year Award winners.
The following is a list of each award and the corresponding winner:
Following the best statistical season of his career in 2024-25 (90 points), Utah Mammoth captain Clayton Keller put forth his most impactful campaign to date as he posted a team-high 88 points (26g, 62a) in 82 games, reaching the 60-assist and 80-point marks for the second consecutive season.
"It means a lot, for sure," Keller said. "There's lots of other guys in this room that could have received it. It's very special, and it means a lot for sure."
Keller was selected by his teammates as the player with the most valuable contributions to the team's success in 2025-26.
Dylan Guenther is a special player.
In just his second full season in the National Hockey League, Guenther ranked third on the team with a career-high 73 points (40g, 33a) in 2025-26, and his franchise-record 40 goals are tied for the third-most of any NHL skater aged 23 or younger.
For the second-straight year, Guenther received the award as he was honored 21 times this season as one of the three-stars of the game.
Despite what happened nearly a year ago during exit interviews, Michael Carcone fully embraced Utah in his return to the team this season.
"It's exciting," Carcone explained. "Like I said from day one, this community has been special and done so much for my family and myself, so obviously getting recognized for this award is special to me."
As part of his World Down Syndrome Day initiatives, Carcone was one of four players to team up with the NHL and For Bare Feet to create a pair of mismatched socks in honor of the day.
Carcone then invited his friend Welles and a group of children to walk into the Delta Center with fellow players and watch the game.
Lawson Crouse was simply a different animal this season.
Following one of the worst seasons of his career, No. 67 flipped a switched for the Mammoth and became one of their most impactful players.
"I think I just try and do my best each and every night out there. Obviously, a lot of guys on our team do so too. I think if you look around the room there's a lot of guys that come out for that award, and I am obviously very grateful to get that recognition," Crouse explained.
Matching his career-high of 24 goals, Crouse was a menace around the net all season long and eventually transformed into a staple on the top line alongside Keller and Nick Schmaltz.
The Utah Mammoth will face the Vegas Golden Knights in round one of the Stanley Cup Playoffs on Sunday.
Puck drop and broadcast are TBD.
All Mammoth games will also be broadcast live on the KSL Sports Zone (97.5 FM/1280 AM).
