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.
Expected to start Saturday
Vejmelka is expected to start at home against Pittsburgh on Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Vejmelka has a 30-17-3 record, 2.69 GAA and .897 save percentage in 51 outings in 2025-26. He's 0-1-1 with a 3.88 GAA and an .849 save percentage across his past two appearances. Perhaps he'll have better luck against Pittsburgh. The Penguins are 1-3-2 across their past six games and are currently without Sidney Crosby (lower body) and Evgeni Malkin (suspension).

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2023
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.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
In starter's net
Vejmelka manned the starter's net during the morning skate, per Brogan Houston of the Deseret News, which might indicate that he'll get the nod at home against Colorado on Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Vejmelka has a 27-14-2 record, 2.58 GAA and .902 save percentage in 44 appearances in 2025-26. He joined Team Czechia for the 2026 Winter Olympics, but he didn't play during the tournament, so he's fresh going into Wednesday's action. Colorado easily leads the league in goals per game with 3.84.
