Karel Vejmelka Snaps Skid On Friday Night
15 seconds agoUtah Hockey Club goaltender Karel Vejmelka stopped 18 of the 19 shots he faced en route to defeating the San Jose Sharks. Vejmelka's lone blemish came in the opening frame on a wrist shot from Fabian Zetterlund. Vejmelka was able to shut the door for the remainder of the evening. This was a nice bounce-back outing for the 28-year-old as he carried a 1-4-1 record over his past six games into Friday's contest. During this span, he allowed three or more goals in four of them and never allowed one or less. Before this cold stretch, he was riding a four-game win streak. Vejmelka will look to start a new winning streak in his next start, which will likely be Tuesday evening against the Canadiens, as Connor Ingram will likely get the nod in the second half of a back-to-back on Saturday night.
