The Utah Mammoth hockey team has officially clinched their first playoff berth in franchise history, following a 4-1 win over the Nashville Predators. The victory was partially due to the Anaheim Ducks' victory over the San Jose Sharks. The Mammoth still has to secure a wild card spot in the NHL's Western Conference, which would give them more favorable matchups through the first two rounds as they would avoid three of the league's top seven teams. The team's progress will be further exacerbated by the summer renovation of the Delta Center.
