Cooley scored a goal in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over the Predators.

EDGE Analysis

Cooley broke the deadlock for the Mammoth at the 2:21 mark of the first period to post his first goal of the campaign. The 21-year-old should be one of Utah's most reliable fantasy performers and is firmly established as one of the best young players in the league after a 2024-25 campaign in which he recorded 25 goals and 65 points in 75 regular-season games.

Per Cole Bagley of KSL Sports, Cooley (undisclosed) will miss Saturday's preseason finale against San Jose but he will be ready to play Opening Night in Colorado on Oct. 9, according to head coach Andre Tourigny on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

That's great news for Cooley's fantasy managers as the 21-year-old is one of the top young players in the NHL. He managed 20 goals and 65 points in 75 regular-season games in 2024-25, including 18 points in his last 16 contests.

Cooley (undisclosed) is back at practice Friday and in a regular jersey, according to Brogan Houston of Deseret News Sports.

EDGE Analysis

Cooley has been hampered by the undisclosed injury for almost two weeks. He could return to action in time for Saturday's preseason finale versus San Jose, but if not, he should be ready to go Oct. 9 on Opening Night in Colorado. The talented winger had 20 goals and 40 assists across 75 regular-season appearances in his 2024-25 sophomore season, including nine points in his final five games.

Cooley (undisclosed) has been ruled out for Tuesday's preseason game against the Kings, Cole Bagley of KSL Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

Cooley has been dealing with an undisclosed injury for just over a week, and head coach Andre Tourigny said Monday that the 21-year-old will still be out for "quite a few days." Tourigny specified that Cooley isn't expected to have a long-term absence. However, Cooley's status for the Mammoth's Opening Night matchup in Colorado on Oct. 9 appears to be in question.

Cooley (undisclosed) isn't in the lineup for Thursday's preseason game against Vegas, Brogan Houston of Deseret News Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

Cooley sustained an injury during Sunday's preseason game against the Avalanche and will be unavailable for a second consecutive exhibition matchup Thursday. However, he's considered day-to-day, so it wouldn't be surprising to see him return to action in time for Opening Night against Colorado on Oct. 9.

Cooley (undisclosed) was deemed day-to-day ahead of Monday's game versus Anaheim, Cole Bagley of KSL Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

Cooley was injured playing against the Avalanche on Sunday but appears not to have suffered a long-term injury. Still, the 21-year-old center won't be in the mix to face the Ducks. In 75 regular-season games last year, the 21-year-old center set new personal bests in goals (25), assists (40) and power-play points (20). Barring any setbacks, it sounds like Cooley should be ready for Opening Night against Colorado on Oct. 9.

Cooley (undisclosed) exited Sunday's preseason game versus the Avalanche in the third period and did not return, Cole Bagley of KSL Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

Cooley was boarded by Colorado's Zakhar Bardakov, who received a minor penalty on the play. According to Bagley, Cooley was on the ice for his next shift, but the left-shot center ultimately went to the locker room and did not come back into the game. There was no official update from the Mammoth on the rising star's health postgame, so Cooley's status will be worth monitoring ahead of upcoming fantasy drafts.

Cooley scored a goal and dished out two assists in Monday's 7-3 win over the Predators.

EDGE Analysis

Cooley lit the lamp for Utah's third goal of the game before assisting on both of Clayton Keller's twine finders in the third period. With his trio of points, Cooley extended his scoring streak to four games and has nine points in that span. He's been highly effective on offense since mid-March with 18 points in his last 15 games. Overall, the 20-year-old center is up to 25 goals, 40 assists and 155 shots on net in 74 appearances this season. Cooley's improvement from his rookie campaign a season ago is an exciting sign from a fantasy perspective. He will likely retain his role centering Utah's top line and is a candidate to take another big step forward in 2025-26.

Cooley scored a goal and added two power-play assists in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Stars.

EDGE Analysis

Cooley has two goals and four helpers over his last three contests. He factored in on three straight goals during the second period. The 20-year-old center is up to 24 goals, 62 points (20 on the power play), 154 shots on net, 59 hits, 44 PIM and a plus-1 rating over 73 appearances. Cooley has played on the first line for a few weeks and may be making that his long-term home in Utah's lineup.

Cooley produced an assist, three shots on goal and two PIM in Thursday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Predators.

EDGE Analysis

Cooley has two goals and three helpers over his last six outings. The 20-year-old center has gotten a look on the top line late in the season, and he's doing well. There's been no sophomore slump for him -- Cooley is at 23 goals, 36 helpers, 153 shots on net, 58 hits, 31 blocked shots, 44 PIM and an even plus-minus rating over 72 appearances in 2024-25, improving in all scoring areas in his second campaign.
