Mammoth Sign Tourigny and Forsythe to Extensions and Hire Former Coyotes Coach Foote as Assistant

The Mammoth also gave multi-year extensions to André Tourigny and Blaine Forsythe after finishing 43-33-6 and reaching the playoffs.

  • On Monday, the Utah Mammoth announced multi-year contract extensions for head coach André Tourigny and assistant Blaine Forsythe, while hiring Adam Foote as an assistant coach on a multi-year deal.
  • Tourigny led the Mammoth to the playoffs during the 2025-26 season with a 43-33-6 record, joining the rare group of NHL coaches who improved win totals in each of their first five seasons.
  • Mammoth general manager Bill Armstrong said the organization is "thrilled to have Adam, a two-time Stanley Cup champion and 2002 Olympic gold medalist" join the staff to bring a fresh perspective backed by experience.
  • Foote will work with defensemen while Forsythe oversees the power play, which fell to 18th in the league last season; the penalty kill finished 19th, offering room for improvement.
  • Assistant coach Mario Duhamel remains under contract with the organization, though the team is working to determine his specific role behind the bench for the upcoming season.
