Karel Vejmelka News

While rookie Sebastian Cossa has played well at times for the Mammoth, he has lacked consistency and has failed to earn more starts despite Karel Vejmelka's ongoing struggles. Vejmelka has allowed three or more goals in six straight games (1-5-0), posting an ugly .840 SV%. In his most recent outing, the 30-year-old Czech goalie allowed three goals on 20 shots (.850 SV%) in a 4-2 loss to the Ottawa Senators. The Mammoth enter Thursday's contest as slight -108 home favourites against the St. Louis Blues, who have lost three of their past four games (1-2-1).

Vejmelka hasn't been overly impressive this season, but sports a solid 6-3-0 record and will continue to be leaned on by the Utah Mammoth. The 30-year-old Czech goalie saved 29 of 32 shots (.906 SV%) in his most recent game, a 5-4 overtime win over the Tampa Bay Lightning. He has a 3.13 GAA and .313 SV% in 10 appearances. Utah enters Tuesday's contest as -113 home favourites against a Minnesota Wild team that has outscored opponents 9-3 in their last two games (2-0-0).

Vejmelka hasn't been outstanding this season, but his 4-1-0 record has helped Utah get off to a strong start. The 30-year-old Czech goalie allowed four goals on 26 shots (.846 SV%) in his most recent game, but received enough goal support to salvage a 5-4 win over the Toronto Maple Leafs. He has a 2.46 GAA and .895 SV% this season. The Mammoth enter Thursday's contest as slight -112 road favourites against the high-flying Edmonton Oilers, who average 4.8 goals per game through six games this season (5-0-1).

With unproven rookie Sebastian Cossa as his backup, Vejmelka is likely due for a heavy workload again this season and will be between the pipes for the fifth time in seven games. The 30-year-old Vejmelka was excellent in his previous outing, saving 23 of 24 shots (.958 SV%) in a 4-1 win over the Buffalo Sabres. He has a 2.13 GAA and .907 SV% in five appearances this season (3-1-0). Utah enters Tuesday's contest as -156 home favourites against a rolling Toronto Maple Leafs team that has scored 14 goals in their last three games (2-0-1).

Vejmelka played a career-high 64 games last season and could be due for another busy season, with rookie Sebastian Cossa as his backup. The 30-year-old Vejmelka was perfect in his opening game, saving all 15 shots he faced in a 6-0 win over the Chicago Blackhawks, but struggled in his follow-up outing, allowing three goals on 18 shots (.857 SV%) in a 4-2 loss to the New York Rangers. The Mammoth enter Tuesday as slight +111 road underdogs against a New Jersey Devils team coming off an embarrassing 6-0 loss to the New York Islanders.

Vejmelka will look to keep Utah's early season magic going on Sunday as the Mammoth head to New York for a battle of two win teams. Vejmelka is coming off a perfect performance in Utah's opener, stopping all 15 shots he faced during a 6-0 shutout win over Chicago. He draws a much tougher task in the New York Rangers on home ice on Sunday, who have outscored opponents 7-4 in the early stages of the season.

Vejmelka was a busy goalie last season, and he should continue that role in 2026-27, as his backup is Sebastian Cossa, who, while he has a promising future, has only one career NHL appearance. The 30-year-old Vejmelka led the Mammoth to the playoffs last season, appearing in 64 games (38-20-3), posting a 2.75 GAA and .896 SV%. The Mammoth enter their season opener on Thursday as sizeable -219 home favourites against a Chicago Blackhawks team that lost 5-2 on Tuesday to the Vegas Golden Knights.
