The Edmonton Oilers suffered their first regulation loss of the season against the Utah Mammoth on Thursday and realized there are still improvements to be made after a strong start. Mammoth captain Clayton Keller potted a pair of goals while forwards Logan Cooley and Nick Schmaltz had two points each as Utah defeated the Oilers 4-2 for their third straight win and sit atop the Central Division with a 6-2-0 record early in the season. After the game, Oilers head coach Mike Babcock praised the Mammoth’s play throughout their entire lineup and realized that his team needs some more depth. “They have a deep team and we’re going to have a deep team, too, but right now we’re not as deep and I thought that showed tonight,” Babcock told reporters after the game. “We needed our big boys. Obviously, I played them too much, but I thought we competed and put in a good effort. “I thought we worked. We played a pretty good team here tonight and I thought we we worked. The good thing for us is we’re getting to see everyone in the organization and we’re seeing who can play and who can’t. They’re getting a great opportunity to show that.
