Vejmelka made 27 saves in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Predators.

Nashville took a 1-0 lead into the first intermission, but Utah struck three times in the first 8:10 of the second period, and Vejmelka never looked back. The 29-year-old netminder has won eight straight starts, and his 25 wins on the season are already one back of the career high he set in 2024-25. He currently leads all NHL netminders in victories, three ahead of Andrei Vasilevskiy.
