Utah News spotted this story published October 23, 2026 at Deseret News. Full coverage may follow as more sources report.

Mikhail Sergachev arrived in Utah in a unique situation. The trade happened four days after his 26th birthday and two days before his no-trade clause kicked in. The newly arrived Utah Hockey Club was one of the youngest teams in the NHL, so despite Sergachev’s young age, his experience as a two-time Stanley Cup champion came with the possibility for him to step up as a major leader.
