In addition to Keller's two goals, Barrett Hayton and Logan Cooley scored for the Mammoth. Hayton scored his first goal of the season, extending his current points streak to five games.

The goal followed a pass from Vincent Trocheck and restored a two-goal lead for Utah.
Karel Vejmelka recorded 22 saves for the Mammoth. On the Edmonton side, Leon Draisaitl and Shakir Mukhamadullin scored goals, while Devon Levi made 20 saves. The Oilers entered the game missing five starting forwards and one defenseman.
Connor McDavid recorded an assist during the game, extending his season-starting points streak to seven games. He currently has 18 points for the season, consisting of four goals and 14 assists, which is a league-leading total and his best start to a season.
The victory comes after the Mammoth matched an offer sheet for Hayton from the New Jersey Devils during the offseason. Prior to this game, Edmonton held a 5-0-1 record against the Mammoth and had outscored them 31-16. The Oilers also held a 3-0-0 all-time home record against Utah, outscoring them 17-5.
