Picks up pair of points Kerfoot scored a goal and added a shorthanded assist in Tuesday's 6-5 overtime win over the Oilers.

The Mammoth also opted for 11 forwards and seven defensemen in the lineup Tuesday, allowing Kerfoot to see 17:04 of ice time from a third-line role. The 31-year-old is a versatile and reliable forward who can move around the lineup with ease. He's been limited by injuries this season, picking up 12 points, 25 shots on net, 25 hits, 23 blocked shots, 23 PIM and a minus-1 rating over 29 appearances.

Opens scoring in loss Kerfoot scored a goal on two shots, added two hits and went minus-2 in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Oilers.

Impact Kerfoot had gone eight games without a goal, though he had three assists in that span. The 31-year-old forward is playing in the bottom six, which makes it tough for him to be a regular contributor on offense. For the season, he's earned seven points, 19 shots on net, 21 hits, 18 blocked shots, 23 PIM and a minus-2 rating through 24 appearances.

Ends point drought Saturday Kerfoot recorded a goal, an assist, five PIM and three blocked shots in Saturday's 5-4 overtime win over the Blue Jackets.

Impact Kerfoot missed Utah's last 12 games before the break due to injury but returned to the ice Feb. 25. This was the first time he recorded points since Dec. 21, when he scored a goal in a win over the Jets. This fourth-line and the overall lack of productivity make Kerfoot a player not worth targeting in most formats, though, despite this impressive outing.

Removed from IR Kerfoot (upper body) was activated off injured reserve in the lead-up to Wednesday's clash with Colorado, per the NHL media site.

Impact Kerfoot will suit up for the first time since Jan. 9, when he suffered his upper-body problem. Injuries have limited the 31-year-old center to just nine appearances this year, in which he notched just one point while averaging 10:20 of ice time. Even with his return to the lineup, Kerfoot is unlikely to offer significant fantasy value, considering he is filling a fourth-line role and won't see much power-play time.

FEBRUARY 25 • ROTOWIRE

Taking steps towards return Kerfoot (upper body) skated in a non-contact jersey during Monday's practice, per Cole Bagley of KSL Sports.

Impact Kerfoot was seen participating in drills and even joined the team's defensemen during line skates. The 31-year-old forward has been out of Utah's lineup since he exited the team's Jan. 9 contest with an upper-body injury. His inclusion in the majority of Monday's morning skate is a sign that he is progressing towards a return, but no official timeline has been established by head coach Andre Tourigny. When Kerfoot is available, he'll likely return to being a rotational forward in Utah's bottom six.

FEBRUARY 3 • ROTOWIRE

Placed on injured reserve Kerfoot (upper body) was placed on injured reserve Sunday, per the NHL media site.

Impact Kerfoot appeared in the Mammoth's last nine games, recording a goal, eight blocked shots, eight PIM and three hits while averaging 10:20 of ice time. However, he exited Friday's game against the Blues due to an upper-body injury and will be forced to miss at least a week after landing on injured reserve. Kevin Rooney was called up by Utah in a corresponding move to provide additional depth in Kerfoot's absence.

Exits Friday's contest Kerfoot (upper body) won't finish Friday's game versus the Blues.

Impact Kerfoot sustained the injury during the first period, and it'll keep him out of the rest of the contest. The 31-year-old forward can be considered day-to-day ahead of Sunday's matchup versus the Blue Jackets. If Kerfoot can't play, Kailer Yamamoto or Liam O'Brien would be candidates to enter the lineup.

Nets first goal of season Kerfoot scored a goal and blocked three shots in Sunday's 4-3 overtime win over the Jets.

Impact This was Kerfoot's second game back from an abdominal injury that cost him the first 36 contests of the season. The 31-year-old has slotted back into a bottom-six role, though he'll likely move around the lineup as necessary as one of the Mammoth's most versatile forwards. His 28-point output from 81 outings last season constituted a down year, but he may still struggle to match that total considering all the time he's missed in 2025-26.

Back from injured reserve Kerfoot (abdomen) was activated from injured reserve Friday.

Impact Kerfoot is clear to be in the lineup versus the Devils on Friday. He'll likely take on a bottom-six role moving forward, though he may not be in the lineup every game.

DECEMBER 20, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Practices Tuesday Kerfoot (abdomen) took part in Tuesday's practice, Cole Bagley of KSL Sports reports.

Impact Kerfoot didn't participate in contact drills during the session, and his return to the lineup doesn't appear to be imminent, but he is making progress. He hasn't played yet this season and underwent core muscle surgery in late October.

DECEMBER 9, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Undergoes core muscle surgery Kerfoot (lower body/abdomen) underwent a core muscle surgery Friday and will miss 8-10 weeks.

Impact Kerfoot was already recovering from a lower-body injury, and it's unclear if the surgery is related to that issue or a separate situation. In any case, the versatile forward is now expected to miss nearly all of the first half of the season, with a return in mid-December at the earliest. Once healthy, Kerfoot may struggle to get into the Mammoth's lineup regularly.

Shifts to IR Kerfoot (lower body) was placed on injured reserve Monday.

Impact Kerfoot missed training camp due to the injury, and he will begin the 2025-26 campaign on the shelf. It remains unclear how long he will be out of commission, but he has been week-to-week since the start of camp. Kerfoot had 11 goals, 28 points, 101 shots on net and 67 blocked shots across 81 regular-season appearances in 2024-25.

OCTOBER 6, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Week-to-week with lower-body injury The Mammoth announced Friday that Kerfoot is considered week-to-week due to a lower-body injury.

Impact Kerfoot has missed just one regular-season game across the past four years, but he's dealing with an injury during training camp that could threaten his availability for Opening Night against the Avalanche on Oct. 9. Across 81 regular-season appearances with Utah last year, he logged 11 goals, 17 assists, 67 blocked shots and 59 hits while averaging 15:15 of ice time. He'll likely continue to occupy a bottom-six role when healthy this season.
