In the following 2018–19 season, Mazanec appeared in 20 games for the Wolf Pack posting a record of 7–8–3 along with a .903 save percentage and 3.01 GAA. He was recalled to the Rangers on two occasions however did not feature in a game.

As an impending unrestricted free agent from the Canucks, Mazanec opted to return to his native Czech Republic, agreeing to a two-year contract with Mountfield HK of the ELH on 27 April 2019.[9] At the 2019 NHL Entry Draft, the Canucks traded Mazanec's rights, 2019 third-round draft pick and a 2020 conditional first-round pick to the Tampa Bay Lightning in exchange for J.
