The Utah Mammoth (3–2–0) return home in red-hot form after dismantling San Jose 6–3 behind a Nick Schmaltz hat trick. The Mammoth remain perfect at home (2–0–0) and will look to keep rolling against a Boston Bruins team still finding its rhythm on the road.
Boston (3–3–0) split its last two games but has struggled away from TD Garden, allowing over 33 shots per game. That defensive looseness plays directly into Schmaltz’s strength — getting pucks to the net.
Schmaltz has cleared Over 2.5 shots on goal in all five games this season, averaging 3.6 SOG while skating top-line minutes alongside Clayton Keller and Barrett Hayton.
He’s coming off a 6-shot night that included his first three goals of the season, and he’s now recorded 22 shots total — the definition of consistent shot volume. Utah’s offense runs through him, both at even strength and on the first power-play unit.
Boston’s penalty kill ranks middle of the pack, and their blue line is allowing high-danger entries with regularity. Expect Schmaltz to test Joonas Korpisalo early and often, especially in transition and on the power play.
Schmaltz’s combination of confidence, volume, and opportunity makes this another high-value spot. Until the market adjusts, we’ll continue to ride this prop at this price.
Nick Schmaltz continues his perfect start and peppers the net again. Expect 4+ shots on goal and strong chances to find the score sheet.
✅ Official Pick: Nick Schmaltz (Utah Mammoth) Over 2.5 Shots on Goal (-110)
