2025 Fantasy Outlook
After years of dangling in trade rumors as a good goalie behind a bad team, Vejmelka upped his game in a contract season and earned an extension with the Mammoth. His five-year deal kicks in for 2025-26 after he posted a 26-22-8 record with a 2.58 GAA and a .904 save percentage in a career-high 58 games. The 29-year-old is among the good goalies in the NHL, especially with that kind of workload, but his numbers could still improve as the team in front of him continues to trend up. Vejmelka should be good for 50 games at a minimum, and if Utah takes the next step forward, he'll be a strong mid-to-late-round pick in fantasy. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a five-year, $23.75 million contract extension with Utah in March of 2025.
Burned by Devils
Vejmelka turned aside 26 shots in Saturday's 4-1 loss to New Jersey.
ANALYSIS
The Mammoth came out flat at both ends of the ice in the afternoon road contest, and Vejmelka didn't have much chance on any of the first three pucks that beat him -- although he might want another crack at Dougie Hamilton's sharp-angle strike late in the second period. It's only Vejmelka's second loss in his last seven starts. He's 17-11-2 with a 2.69 GAA and an .895 save percentage this season.

2022
Vejmelka looked like Utah's goalie of the future with a breakout 2022-23 showing, but he crashed to Earth in 2023-24, and his game seemed porous. There was even talk of waiving him. Vejmelka is a solid enough netminder, but with Connor Ingram's emergence, he's going to settle for the No. 2 role in Utah. The arrival of Mikhail Sergachev and John Marino on the team's blue line will help both goalies tremendously, so expect far better numbers for Vejmelka than his 3.35 GAA and .895 save percentage from last year. He could offer some depth fantasy value if he can force a platoon situation.
