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.
Mixed results in win
Vejmelka saved 16 out of 20 shots in Thursday's 7-4 win over the Blues.
ANALYSIS
Despite saving only four out of every five shots, Vejmelka was able to coast to a win, fueled by Utah's offense, which scored seven times. With the win, Vejmelka is up to a 5-1-0 record with a 2.49 GAA and an .896 save percentage in six appearances. Thursday's contest marked the 29-year-old goaltender's fifth consecutive win, but also his campaign high in goals allowed and season low in saves. Regardless, the Mammoth are trending toward playoff contention this season, and if Vejmelka continues to outduel opposing netminders, he could be well on his way to another career year in fantasy. He is a strong goaltending option in all formats and should be rostered in most deep leagues.

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.
