Utah began the day with a five-point lead over the second-place Nashville Predators for the Western Conference Wild Card No. 1 spot.

Vanecek was the first goaltender off the ice but then he went to the other sheet to work with a skills coach.
Vejmelka was the first goaltender to make his way to the locker room.
