Yaroslav Askarov News: Facing Mammoth

Askarov will patrol the visiting crease in Utah on Friday, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports.

Askarov had a tough go of it in his season debut Saturday against Anaheim, allowing seven goals on 43 shots in an overtime loss. Askarov is highly regarded -- he was selected 11th overall by Nashville in 2020 -- and will get a chance to redeem himself against the Mammoth, who are averaging only 2.00 goals per game, 30th in the NHL.
