The money was still handed out, but it wasn’t attached to that designation.Until Saturday, Mammoth head coach André Tourigny had hesitated to place any blame on his goaltenders. He and others in the organization had instead pointed to defensive errors that led to goals against — a team issue, rather than an individual one.That changed on Saturday with his team’s 6-5 shootout loss to the San Jose Sharks, a bottom-10 team in the NHL going into the game. Karel Vejmelka allowed five goals on 21 shots for a measly .762 save percentage, and somehow that’s only his third-worst performance of the season.Utah Mammoth center Vincent Trocheck (16) and San Jose Sharks center Barclay Goodrow (23) fight for a faceoff during a game at the Delta Center in Salt Lake City on Saturday, Nov. 14, 2026. | Lukas Katilius, Deseret NewsUtah Mammoth left wing Michael Carcone (53) and San Jose Sharks defenseman Darnell Nurse (25) fight for the puck during a game at the Delta Center in Salt Lake City on Saturday, Nov. 14, 2026. | Lukas Katilius, Deseret NewsThe puck slowly slides over the line for a Utah Mammoth goal during a game against the San Jose Sharks at the Delta Center in Salt Lake City on Saturday, Nov. 14, 2026. | Lukas Katilius, Deseret NewsSan Jose Sharks center Macklin Celebrini (71) skates back to defend during a game against the Utah Mammoth at the Delta Center in Salt Lake City on Saturday, Nov. 14, 2026. | Lukas Katilius, Deseret NewsSan Jose Sharks defenseman Dmitry Orlov (9) celebrates with his teammates after scoring a goal during a game against the Utah Mammoth at the Delta Center in Salt Lake City on Saturday, Nov. 14, 2026. | Lukas Katilius, Deseret NewsUtah Mammoth center Barrett Hayton (27) passes the puck during a game against the San Jose Sharks at the Delta Center in Salt Lake City on Saturday, Nov. 14, 2026. | Lukas Katilius, Deseret NewsSan Jose Sharks center Zack Ostapchuk (63) celebrates a goal during a game against the Utah Mammoth at the Delta Center in Salt Lake City on Saturday, Nov. 14, 2026. | Lukas Katilius, Deseret NewsSan Jose Sharks defenseman Sam Dickinson (6) looks for a pass during a game against the Utah Mammoth at the Delta Center in Salt Lake City on Saturday, Nov. 14, 2026. | Lukas Katilius, Deseret NewsA Utah Mammoth fan puts their hand over their heart for a national anthem during a game against the San Jose Sharks at the Delta Center in Salt Lake City on Saturday, Nov. 14, 2026. | Lukas Katilius, Deseret NewsTwo Utah Mammoth fans cel
