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.
Sharp in seventh win
Vejmelka made 17 saves in Tuesday's 2-1 overtime win over the Sabres.
ANALYSIS
While he wasn't busy on a night in which Utah outshot Buffalo 35-18, Vejmelka took a shutout into the third period before giving up a fluky goal to Noah Ostlund -- the initial shot went over the net, bounced off the glass and got knocked down by Isak Rosen before landing at Ostlund's feet for a second chance. Vejmelka got his revenge, though, picking up an assist on Clayton Keller's OT winner. The 29-year-old netminder is 7-3-0 through 10 starts to begin the season with a 2.60 GAA and an .894 save percentage.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
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.
