The Utah Hockey Club is struggling to find success at home, having achieved only one win in their first four games of January. Despite a strong fanbase, the team has faltered in Salt Lake City, winning just three of its last 14 home games and recording the fewest home victories in the NHL. Forward Nick Bjugstad expressed concern for the fans, indicating that the team needs to reflect and dig deeper to overcome this hurdle.

In contrast, Utah has enjoyed significant road success, contributing to their playoff hopes. However, inconsistent offensive performances at home have hindered their ability to gain momentum. Over their last four home games, they allowed an average of three goals while scoring only 1.8. Coach Andre Tourigny acknowledged the pressure the team feels, emphasizing the importance of building a relationship with their fans.
