- Building on Momentum: Despite their recent win, the Flyers need to address areas of concern including special teams and turnover management.
- Konecny’s Consistency: Konecny has been the Flyers’ leading scorer since December 1, contributing 24 points in 24 games. His timely goal-scoring will be crucial against Utah.
- Discipline is Key: The Flyers must maintain control over their play to avoid penalties. Effective puck management and disciplined shifts will be vital for success.
The Flyers remain hopeful that their improved performance in recent matches, along with Konecny’s offensive talent, can propel them to another victory against a well-rested Mammoth team.
