SALT LAKE CITY – Hockey Halloween is upon us as several members of the Utah Mammoth and their families dressed up for the holiday with a collection of creative costumes.

Here’s what some of the Mammoth were seen wearing on social media.

Mikhail Sergachev and his chickens

Embracing his passion project of raising chickens, defenseman Mikhail Sergachev and his family dressed the part for Hockey Halloween.

Standing next to their chicken coop, Sergachev was dressed as a farmer while his wife and son wore chicken suits.

Aside from his sweet cowboy boots, perhaps the best part of the costume was Sergachev’s shirt that read, “Don’t disrespect my chickens,” a hilarious reference to last season when former teammate Nick Bjugstad jokingly criticized the chickens and their eggs.

Brandon Tanev times three?

Michael Carcone and his wife may deserve the most creative costume award this year as they both dressed as Brandon Tanev for Hockey Halloween.

In addition to Mammoth sweaters, it appears that the Carcones used previous media day headshots for masks to compete the Tanev costume.
