Inks two-year extension Stauber signed a two-year, two-way contract with Utah on Tuesday.

Impact Stauber had a 2-1-1 record with a 3.26 GAA and an .892 save percentage in six NHL appearances with Utah during the 2024-25 regular season. If Connor Ingram (personal) returns to the active roster in 2025-26, Stauber could start the season with AHL Tucson.

Sent to the minors Stauber was loaned to AHL Tucson on Friday,

Impact Stauber allowed four goals on 10 shots after replacing Karel Vejmelka halfway through Thursday's tilt in Tampa Bay. He was 2-1-1 with one shutout in six NHL appearances this season, giving up 17 goals on 158 shots. In a corresponding move, Utah recalled netminder Matt Villalta to replace Stauber on the roster.

Another poor showing in relief Stauber gave up four goals on 10 shots after replacing Karel Vejmelka in Thursday's 8-0 loss to the Lightning.

Impact The Lightning avenged their 6-4 loss from Saturday in Utah, and they did it in a big way. Both Utah goalies played about half the game to roughly equal results. Stauber has allowed eight goals on 38 shots across two relief appearances in March since he was called up to cover for the absence of Connor Ingram (personal). Utah is likely to ride with Vejmelka as long as they're mathematically in the playoff race, so Stauber is not a candidate to see much playing time.

Allows four goals in relief outing Stauber stopped 24 of 28 shots in relief of Karel Vejmelka in Tuesday's 7-1 loss to the Oilers.

Impact Vejmelka was blitzed for three goals on 14 shots in the first period. Stauber was marginally better, but the Oilers didn't let up over the final two frames despite a dominant lead. Stauber went 2-1-1 over his first four games of the season, but this poor outing has inflated his GAA to 2.76 while dropping his save percentage to .912 through five contests. Don't expect Stauber to get much action as long as Utah remains in contention for a playoff spot, as the team has had no hesitation in riding Karel Vejmelka as a workhorse starter.

MARCH 19 • ROTOWIRE

Summoned from minors Stauber was recalled from AHL Tucson on Sunday.

Impact Stauber has appeared in four NHL games this season, posting a 2-1-1 record while allowing nine goals on 120 shots. According to Belle Fraser of The Salt Lake Tribune, Connor Ingram (undisclosed) was absent from Sunday's practice. If Ingram is unavailable for Monday's home matchup versus Toronto, Stauber could be the backup behind Karel Vejmelka.

MARCH 9 • ROTOWIRE

Assigned to AHL Stauber was reassigned to AHL Tucson on Saturday.

Impact Stauber was recalled earlier in the week with Connor Ingram's (upper body) status unclear, but the 27-year-old netminder will head back to the AHL ahead of Utah's matchup in Los Angeles on Saturday. Stauber has four NHL appearances this year, where he's gone 2-1-1 with a .925 save percentage.

FEBRUARY 22 • ROTOWIRE

Rejoins big club Stauber was recalled from AHL Tucson on Tuesday.

Impact Stauber's last start with Utah was in a 4-1 loss to the Oilers on Dec. 31. Connor Ingram's (upper body) status is unknown, so Stauber should provide depth in the crease in the short term. Stauber owns a 2-1-1 record, .925 save percentage and 2.23 GAA across four appearances in the NHL this season.

FEBRUARY 18 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to AHL Stauber was reassigned to AHL Tucson on Thursday.

Impact Stauber has a 2-1-1 record, 2.23 GAA and .925 save percentage in four appearances with Utah. Connor Ingram (upper body), who was with Tucson on a conditioning stint, has rejoined the NHL squad. Stauber will likely remain in the minors for the rest of 2024-25 unless Utah once again needs another goaltender due to an injury.

Receives little help in loss Stauber allowed three goals on 37 shots in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Oilers. The fourth goal was an empty-netter.

Impact Stauber took his first regulation loss of the season, but he put in a decent performance against a tough opponent. He's allowed nine goals on 120 shots over four appearances, good for a .925 save percentage. Stauber continues to see limited time behind Karel Vejmelka, and his NHL time could be coming to a close soon since Connor Ingram (upper body) began a conditioning loan with AHL Tucson on Tuesday. Utah doesn't have another back-to-back until Jan. 23 and 24, and it's likely Ingram will be healthy by then. Stauber is waivers-exempt, so Utah won't have any trouble getting him back to the AHL.

JANUARY 1 • ROTOWIRE

Starting in Edmonton Stauber will guard the road goal against the Oilers on Tuesday, according to Brogan Houston of Deseret News Sports.

Impact Stauber will get the second half of Utah's back-to-back after Karel Vejmelka played in Monday's 5-2 loss to Seattle. The 25-year-old Stauber has allowed only six goals on 83 shots en route to a 2-0-1 record in three NHL appearances this season. Edmonton ranks 10th in the league with 3.25 goals per game in 2024-25.

DECEMBER 31, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Loses in shootout Sunday Stauber stopped 26 of 30 shots in Sunday's 5-4 loss to the Ducks.

Impact Stauber was tagged with the loss in a game that was decided on a shootout, where he gave up the decider to Mason McTavish. Stauber has yet to be defeated in regulation this season, going 2-0-1 with a 1.96 GAA and a .928 save percentage in three appearances. That said, his fantasy upside shouldn't be very high even if the numbers (on a small sample size) are impressive, as he should remain in backup duties behind Karel Vejmelka, and he'll revert to a third-string role once Connor Ingram (upper body) is ready to return.

Defending crease Sunday Stauber will protect the home net versus Anaheim on Sunday, Cole Bagley of KSL Sports reports.

Impact Stauber has won his previous two starts for Utah this season, stopping 51 of 53 shots and picking up his first NHL shutout against Vegas on Nov. 30. Anaheim sits 31st in the league with 2.42 goals per game in 2024-25.

DECEMBER 22, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Picks up win in second start Stauber turned aside 22 of 24 shots in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Flyers.

Impact Stauber has won both of his games this season, the first being a shutout win over the Golden Knights on Nov. 30. The 25-year-old Stauber won't see much playing time since Karel Vejmelka has played well in the absence of Connor Ingram (upper body). Still, Stauber appears to be a reliable streaming option for whenever he might get the nod. Utah plays just four times over the next 10 days, so he's unlikely to see more than one start in that span, and he may not see any since he's only played in back-to-back situations so far.

Starting Sunday Stauber will guard the road net Sunday against the Flyers, Adam Kimelman of NHL.com reports.

Impact Stauber will get the starting nod for Utah in the second leg of a back-to-back. The 25-year-old netminder has made just one NHL appearance this season, where he turned aside 29 shots in a shutout victory over Vegas.

DECEMBER 8, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Earns first career shutout Stauber posted a 29-save shutout in Saturday's 6-0 win over the Golden Knights.

Impact This was Stauber's first career shutout, and he's now won six of his seven NHL appearances. He impressed in a short stint with the Blackhawks in 2022-23, but spent all of 2023-24 with AHL Rockford. Utah had been hesitant to give Stauber a start since Connor Ingram (upper body) landed on injured reserve, but it appears that cautious approach was misguided. Karel Vejmelka has seen a heavy workload recently, and Utah doesn't have another back-to-back until next weekend, which could afford Stauber a chance to start Saturday versus the Sabres or Sunday against the Flyers if Ingram hasn't been cleared to return.

Jaxson Stauber registers first shut out of his career, Utah blanks Golden Knights, 6-0

Set to start Saturday Stauber is expected to start on the road against Vegas on Saturday, per Belle Fraser of The Salt Lake Tribune.

Impact This will be his Utah HC debut. He previously had a 5-1-0 record, 2.80 GAA and .911 save percentage in six regular-season appearances with the Blackhawks in 2022-23. When it comes to this campaign, he's posted a 2.29 GAA and a .930 save percentage in seven outings with AHL Tucson. Connor Ingram is on injured reserve due to an upper-body injury, which is why Stauber is on the NHL roster.

NOVEMBER 30, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Up from minors Stauber was recalled from AHL Tucson on Wednesday.

Impact Stauber has a 2.29 GAA and a .930 save percentage in seven AHL outings in 2024-25. Connor Ingram is in Utah to be evaluated for an upper-body injury while the team is set to play in Boston on Thursday, so that's the reason for Stauber's promotion. It wouldn't be surprising if Stauber serves as the backup goaltender versus the Bruins while Karel Vejmelka will likely get the start.

Inks one-year deal Stauber secured a one-year, two-way contract with Utah HC on Friday.

Impact Stauber played six NHL games back in 2022-23 with the Blackhawks but spent all of last season in the minors. With AHL Rockford, the 25-year-old backstop went 18-8-3 with a .902 save percentage and 2.85 GAA in 31 AHL regular-season contests. Looking ahead to the upcoming season, Stauber figures to be the third netminder on the depth chart, at best, meaning he figures to spend most of the year in the minors.
