JJ PETERKA NEWS

Deposits empty-netter Peterka scored an empty-net goal on four shots and added two PIM in Friday's 5-3 win over the Kraken.

Impact Peterka had the first of the Mammoth's two empty-netters. The winger is continuing to find success in a top-line role -- he's earned four goals and four helpers over seven contests in December. For the season, he's at 13 goals, 24 points, 68 shots on net and a plus-4 rating across 33 appearances. He's behind the pace necessary to match his 68-point total from 2024-25 with the Sabres, but he's been scoring more efficiently and could finish with his first 30-goal campaign if he doesn't fade in that area.

Impact Peterka's second goal came on the power play, his first contribution with the man advantage all season. The winger has five points over two contests to begin December, which is just one point less than he had in all of November. The 23-year-old is up to 12 goals, 21 points, 60 shots on net and a plus-5 rating through 28 appearances. If he stays on the top line, his offense should continue to surge.

The tally ended a four-game slide for Peterka, who had mainly been in a bottom-six role during the slump. He's now at 10 goals, 17 points, 54 shots on net and a plus-2 rating through 27 outings in his first year in Utah.

Pots both goals in loss Peterka scored two goals and added two PIM in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Sharks.

Impact Peterka has four goals and an assist over his last four contests, which coincides with a move to the third line. The 23-year-old winger is at eight goals, 15 points, 38 shots on net, eight PIM and a plus-3 rating over 20 appearances to begin his time with the Mammoth. That puts him on pace to top the 60-point mark for the second year in a row, though he's a little short of being on track to match his 68-point output from 77 games a year ago.

Tallies again in overtime loss Peterka scored a goal on three shots and went minus-2 in Friday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Islanders.

Impact Peterka was dropped to the third line for this contest but still saw 16:25 of ice time. He has three points over his last two games, so he may stay lower in the lineup until his offense fades. Michael Carcone moved up to take his spot on the second line, and Carcone's style is better suited to the bottom six. Overall, Peterka has six goals, 13 points, 36 shots on net and a plus-2 rating over 18 appearances this season.

Earns two points versus former team Peterka scored a goal on three shots, dished an assist and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Sabres.

Impact Peterka snapped a five-game point drought with this effort. He scored the game-tying goal within the first minute of the third period and then set up Lawson Crouse for the eventual game-winner. The 23-year-old Peterka is up to five goals, 12 points, 33 shots on net and a plus-4 rating through his first 17 outings with the Mammoth. He's held onto a second-line role and also sees some power-play time, but with just two multi-point efforts on the year, he's yet to see his offense really come to life this season.

Impact A failed clearance by the Oilers opened the door for Peterka to score. He is on a four-game point streak (two goals, four assists) while working on the second line. The 23-year-old winger is up to four goals, 10 points, 19 shots on net and a plus-8 rating through 11 outings this season. Peterka hasn't logged a power-play point yet after picking up 18 of his 68 points with the man advantage last year, so he could still unlock a little more offense.
