52. Mammoth Season Predictions
2026/09/28
The Utah Mammoth preseason finally gives Slapshot Utah something real to chew on, and the early read is loud: the young guys are pushing, the chemistry looks sharper, and a few names are making this roster conversation a lot more interesting. If you want the clearest take on what actually mattered from these games, this is the one to hear. Jahn and Leroy break down the biggest preseason signals without getting fooled by the scoreboard. Daniel But is already turning heads with his size, his presence in the blue paint, and the kind of net-front energy that can change a lineup fast. Spicy Tuna is suddenly flashing goal-scoring touch, Logan Cooley is trying new things with the puck, and the team as a whole looks more fluid than it did before camp. You’ll also hear why the Avalanche game stood out, what the overtime loss to Vegas really revealed, and why Leroy keeps coming back to one idea: preseason results matter less than player performance, vibe, and who is starting to look ready right now. The conversation gets into the details that actually tell you something, like board passes, timing, spacing, and which prospects are beginning to play like they belong. This episode is for anyone trying to separate hype from actual progress. The preseason can be noisy, but there are real clues hiding in these minutes if you know what to look for—and Jahn and Leroy are watching closely. Joined in the end by the legendary Puckstradamus. Lets see if that crystal ball even works! Perfect for Utah Mammoth fans who want the "smartest", but most honest preseason read before the real games begin. #tusksup #utahmammoth #utah #hockey #podcast @SlapshotUtah @LeroySLC @iminthe801 Hosted on Acast.

50. Season 1 FINALE
2026/09/14
Season one ends with a raw, funny, heartfelt sendoff, and the best part is this show was never really about the hosts at all. Jahn and Leroy look back on the moments that turned Slapshot Utah into a real community, from the first hotline calls and wild watch parties to the friends, fans, and guests who helped build a new hockey voice in Utah. They also break down the season's biggest memories on and off the ice, including Mackenzie Weegar's first playoff goal, Logan Cooley's four-goal outburst, Dylan Guenther's New Year's Day hat trick, and the kind of emotional, once-in-a-lifetime moment that made the entire year feel bigger than sports. Along the way, they talk about tailgates, the Heber Creeper, awkward online shopping for big guys, and why college football chaos somehow feels right at the start of hockey season. You'll also hear them revisit the guests and voices that shaped the show, including Julian aka 996 The Howl and Coach Mike, plus the bigger mission behind the podcast: creating a place for fans who want to belong, speak up, and be part of something local. If you've been listening all season, this is the episode that reminds you why. Jahn and Leroy are the voices behind Slapshot Utah, a fan-first Utah sports podcast built for the people who love the team, the market, and the community around it. Perfect for anyone who has followed the rise of Utah hockey, loves unfiltered fan reaction, or wants the emotional payoff of a season finale that actually means something. Season two starts with a fan cast, but first, this one closes the book on a first season nobody will forget.

49. Crossing Enemy Lines ft:: Matty J and BigDVader
2026/09/07
The Vegas Golden Knights may have changed coaches, but the real debate is bigger than a new bench boss—are they actually built to win another Cup, or are they sliding into a retool year? Big D Vader and Matty J join Slapshot Utah for a heated cross-fan showdown that turns into a full-blown offseason war room. From Ryan Craig replacing John Tortorella to the never-ending Connor Hellebuyck debate, this episode goes straight into the questions every Golden Knights and Mammoth fan is asking right now. Should Vegas swing big for a goalie? Can Utah afford to cash in top prospects for an immediate upgrade? And what does the Pacific Division look like if Vegas takes a step back, Anaheim keeps rising, and San Jose keeps closing the gap? We break down: --Why Vegas did so little this offseason and what that says about their long game --Whether Hellebuyck is the answer in net or a cap-space trap --Why Tortorella’s stubbornness may have cost the Knights in the playoffs --How Ryan Craig changes the locker room, especially for younger players --Why Utah’s future hinges on whether its top prospects are truly untouchable Then the conversation takes a wild turn into the stuff only hockey fans could love—the hilariously broken NHL video game player likenesses, franchise mode addiction, fantasy hockey streaming strategy, and what it actually means to build a contender in a salary-cap league. If you like passionate hockey talk, sharp takes, and the kind of rivalry banter that only gets better when the gloves come off, this one is essential listening. Perfect for Golden Knights fans, Utah Mammoth diehards, and anyone who wants the real story behind the early-season expectations. Guests: Matty J ( @MJJBayBay )-- hockey voice and Vegas fan, bringing the Golden Knights perspective, bad ass US Marine (OOOORAHHHHH), and offseason skepticism. Big D Vader ( @BigDVader  )-- host of the Golden Tusks Podcast, known for his hard-edged Vegas analysis, hockey obsession, and no-filter opinions.

Don't forget to vote for us in the Best of Utah, City Weekly contest by clicking here : https://cityweekly.revfluent.com/bestof/portal/8d29fdb3-3542-4e50-be48-947a3e7988d7#/group/87 A trade request from Connor Hellebuyck could shake up the whole NHL, and Jahn and Leroy are here to break down what it means for Utah, Winnipeg, and the goalie market everyone is about to overpay for. With summer hockey news finally heating up, the guys dissect the Hellebuyck situation, the kind of package it would take to land a former Vezina winner, and whether Utah would ever make a move this massive. They also connect the dots between Hellebuyck, Quinn Hughes trade rumors, and the exploding value of NHL contracts as the salary cap climbs toward a new era. Jahn and Leroy share: Why an elite goalie like Hellebuyck suddenly feels available What Utah would actually have to give up in a blockbuster deal Why the next few years of NHL contracts could look wildly different How Bill Armstrong’s team-friendly extensions are shaping Utah’s future Why homegrown depth matters more than chasing retreads Then the conversation pivots from hockey to the frustration of modern sports viewing, from blacked-out "national" games to the death of easy, local TV access. If you miss the days when you could flip on a game, hear your hometown crew, and actually feel connected to your team, this part will hit home. The episode also goes off the rails in the best way possible with a run through Utah sports culture, including Real Salt Lake on Apple TV, old-school channel-surfing memories, and the bizarre world of local teams most fans barely hear about until after they win. It’s sharp, funny, and very Utah. Perfect for hockey fans, Utah sports diehards, and anyone who wants smart offseason speculation with a side of local-rant energy. @SlapshotUtah @LeroySLC @iminthe801 Hosted on Acast.

47. Superstitious Thoughts
2026/08/24
The fastest way to ruin a sports superstition is to call it stupid. The fastest way to understand it is to listen to two die-hard fans explain why a jersey change, a seat swap, or a dirty shirt can feel like the difference between a win and a collapse. Jahn and Leroy are back with a hilarious, highly specific tour through the rituals, taboos, and full-on hockey madness that fans and players swear by. From Patrick Roy talking to goalposts to Wayne Gretzky’s pregame baby powder, from Sidney Crosby’s stick-tape obsession to Ray Bourque’s relentless skate-lace routine, this episode turns “crazy” into “maybe there’s something to it.” You’ll discover: Why some fans refuse to move an inch when their team is on a run The bizarre Gretzky habits that became part of his legend The superstitions Crosby, Roy, Bourque, and Eddie Belfour reportedly lived by How the Detroit Red Wings’ octopus tradition actually began Why the Florida Panthers’ “rat trick” became one of hockey’s strangest rituals What Whistlegate says about culture, fandom, and Utah hockey identity Jahn brings the true believer energy, sharing exactly how deep superstition runs in his own sports life, while Leroy keeps the conversation moving with story after story of iconic hockey rituals, oddball logic, and the kind of fan psychology that only makes sense if you’ve ever refused to wash a lucky shirt. This is more than a list of weird traditions. It’s an argument for why sports are fun when you feel like you’re actually part of the outcome, even if that means sitting in the same seat, wearing the same jersey, and trusting the universe to reward your commitment. Perfect for anyone who loves hockey, fan culture, or the irrational little habits that make sports feel personal. If you’ve ever said “don’t touch that, we’re winning right now,” this one is for you. @SlapshotUtah @LeroySLC @iminthe801 Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
46. Hockey Idiot Quiz
2026/08/17
Think you know hockey? This episode puts that confidence on the ice. Leroy and Jahn turn offseason chaos into a full-blown Hockey Idiot Quiz - and the results are way funnier, way messier, and way more revealing than either of them expected. After opening with a quick check-in on the wild listener support behind their City Weekly best local podcast push, the guys jump straight into the kind of off-the-rails hockey conversation only this show can deliver. Jahn kicks things off by introducing BK Ice Wars, the bare-knuckle ice fighting spectacle that instantly hijacks the room, before Leroy unveils a Jeopardy-style test built to separate real fans from total hockey idiots. You'll hear them battle through five categories: team nicknames, legendary players, rules and refs, Stanley Cup stuff, and hockey lingo. Along the way, they break down the meaning behind terms like hat trick, icing, hooking, and empty-net goals, test each other on franchise nicknames like the Habs, Bolts, Cats, and Thrashers, and revisit legends including Wayne Gretzky, Alex Ovechkin, Patrick Roy, and Gordie Howe. Jahn also shares his obsession with Ovechkin's influence on the next generation, while Leroy adds the kind of old-school hockey context that keeps the quiz from becoming pure chaos. And because no hockey episode is complete without a little trophy worship, the conversation lands on why the Stanley Cup remains the greatest championship prize in sports - plus the strange traditions and road-trip lore that make it feel larger than life. This episode is for anyone who loves hockey, loves being right about hockey, or loves watching someone else confidently guess their way through it. With the season only weeks away, Leroy and Jahn are making offseason content fun again and reminding listeners why this show feels like hanging out with two extremely opinionated local fans who never stop. Perfect for diehards, casual fans, and anyone who wants to see how much hockey knowledge survives under pressure. Hit play, score your own quiz at home, and see whether you're a hockey expert or just another idiot on Slapshot Utah.
