Karel Vejmelka Makes 17th Consecutive Start Sunday
3 days agoUtah Hockey Club goaltender Karel Vejmelka will be trusted in the crease for a 17th straight game on Sunday versus the Chicago Blackhawks. The Czech netminder has worked tirelessly between the sticks since the 4 Nations break, with Connor Ingram (personal) unavailable. Recently, he has hit a wall, dropping three decisions in a row, including an ugly 8-0 trashing by the Tampa Bay Lightning. Vejmelka holds a 21-20-7 record for the season, boasting a 2.60 goals-against average with a .903 save percentage and one shutout. Utah's No. 1 has not lost four consecutive starts since February 2024 and is in a good spot to end his recent slump, as Chicago has gone 1-8-1 over its last 10 games.
