Nick Tuzzolino (one goal, one assist) and Riley Armstrong (two goals) chipped in two points in the process. 10 of Utah's 14 active skaters had at least a point.
Utah outshot Stockton 44-30, extended their power-play scoring streak to six games and scored two power-play goals for the third-straight game.
