Last year, Vejmelka delivered a 26-22-8 record, 2.58 GAA and .904 save percentage (one shutout) in 55 starts. He also has two assists. The big 29-year-old is quietly taking another step forward.

Facing Kraken Vejmelka will be between the pipes for Saturday's home matchup against Seattle.

Impact Vejmelka has won his last five outings while stopping 125 of the 132 shots he has faced. He has a 22-11-2 record with a 2.53 GAA, a .901 save percentage and one shutout through 36 appearances this campaign. Seattle is tied for 25th in the league this season with 2.74 goals per game.

Sharp in win Vejmelka allowed one goal on 27 shots in Thursday's 2-1 win over the Stars.

Impact Vejmelka didn't get a ton of help, but he was up to the challenge to earn his fifth straight win. He's allowed just seven goals in that span, though the Stars are by far the toughest opponent he's seen during the streak. For the season, the 29-year-old netminder is up to 22-11-2 with a 2.53 GAA and a .901 save percentage over 36 outings. The Mammoth's next game is a fairly favorable home matchup against the Kraken on Saturday. With no back-to-back sets over the next week, Vejmelka figures to see a fairly steady workload in the near future.

First goalie off Thursday Vejmelka was the first goalie to leave the ice Thursday, Brogan Houston of Deseret News Sports reports, indicating he'll guard the cage at home versus Dallas.

Impact Vejmelka is riding a four-game winning streak during which he has posted a 1.49 GAA and .943 save percentage. The 29-year-old netminder currently leads the NHL with 21 wins, and his 35 starts trail only Nashville's Juuse Saros (36). At this rate, Vejmelka should be a lock for the 30-win threshold and should even push for 40. If he continues to rack up wins, Vejmelka could find himself receiving a Vezina Trophy nomination at the end of the year.

Cruises to win Vejmelka stopped 19 of 20 shots in Tuesday's 6-1 win over the Maple Leafs.

Impact Calle Jarnkrok scored at 3:30 of the third period to spoil Vejmelka's shutout bid, but that was the only blemish on his performance. Vejmelka has won four outings in a row and six of his last seven. He's up to 21-11-2 with a 2.58 GAA and a .900 save percentage over 35 appearances this season. He's on a roll, and he'd get a look at a struggling Stars team should he get the nod Thursday at home.

First to 20 wins this season Vejmelka stopped 26 of 28 shots in Friday's 4-2 win over the Blues.

Impact Vejmelka is the first goalie to reach the 20-win mark this season. He's on a bit of a roll with five wins over his last six outings, allowing just 14 goals on 163 shots in that span. The 29-year-old netminder is at 20-11-2 with a 2.63 GAA and an .898 save percentage through 34 appearances. His workload is a plus for fantasy managers, as Vitek Vanecek hasn't played well enough for Vejmelka to get much rest yet. The Mammoth's next game is Sunday versus the Blue Jackets.

Impact The Mammoth came out flat at both ends of the ice in the afternoon road contest, and Vejmelka didn't have much chance on any of the first three pucks that beat him -- although he might want another crack at Dougie Hamilton's sharp-angle strike late in the second period. It's only Vejmelka's second loss in his last seven starts, and on the season he's 17-11-2 with a 2.69 GAA and .895 save percentage.
