Vejmelka stopped 37 of 39 shots in Friday's 3-2 overtime win over the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
Vejmelka earned his fifth win in his last seven outings, though this was his first good appearance in four games. While it came against an Oilers lineup sans Connor McDavid, it was still a positive for Vejmelka, who has had a down year. The 27-year-old netminder is at 13-19-2 with a 3.35 GAA and an .895 save percentage through 37 appearances. The Coyotes continue to alternate goalies, lining up Connor Ingram for Sunday's game in Calgary and Vejmelka for the season finale at home versus the Oilers on Wednesday.

Vejmelka surrendered five goals on 25 shots in Tuesday's 5-0 loss to the Kraken.
EDGE Analysis
Vejmelka is stumbling to the finish line this season, having allowing 15 goals over his last three contests despite earning a win in that span. The 27-year-old also received no help Tuesday. Vejmelka dropped to 12-19-2 with a 3.40 GAA and an .895 save percentage through 36 appearances. Connor Ingram is likely to start Wednesday in Vancouver, while Vejmelka is lined up to face the Oilers in each of his last two starts (Friday and next Wednesday) should the Coyotes' goalie rotation continue to close out the campaign.

Vejmelka will patrol the road crease versus the Kraken on Tuesday, Craig Morgan of PHNX Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
Vejmelka wasn't great in his last start Friday versus Vegas, surrendering four goals on just 24 shots, but he still came away with a win thanks to fantastic goal support from his teammates. He'll try to secure his 13th victory of the season in a road matchup with a Seattle squad that's averaging only 2.69 goals at home this year, 28th in the NHL.

Vejmelka allowed four goals on 24 shots in Friday's 7-4 win over the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis
Vejmelka was down 4-1 after the second period, but he stayed in the game. The Coyotes then erupted for six goals in the third to give him his fourth win in five outings despite the poor raw numbers. Vejmelka is up to 12-18-2 with a 3.35 GAA and an .895 save percentage through 35 games this season. It's expected Connor Ingram will start Sunday in San Jose, lining up Vejmelka for a favorable road start in Seattle on Tuesday.

Vejmelka is slated to get the starting nod at home against Vegas on Friday, Craig Morgan of PHNX Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
Vejmelka has been sharing the crease with Connor Ingram lately -- Vej has posted a 3-2-0 record, 2.38 GAA and .921 save percentage in his last five outings. The split share should continue heading into the final seven games of the season, which means Vejmelka will likely see three more starts following Friday's appearance.

Vejmelka made 24 saves in an 8-5 loss to the Rangers. He allowed six goals.
EDGE Analysis
He went into the third locked in a 3-3 tie, but his team collapsed early in the third and allowed three consecutive goals before his mates made a game of it. Vejmelka had come into Saturday on a three-game winning streak (four total goals allowed). If the Coyotes follow their recent pattern of alternating starters, Vejmelka will suit up Friday against Vegas. That's a rough matchup, so find another option for next week's games.

Vejmelka stopped 25 of 27 shots in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Blue Jackets.
EDGE Analysis
Vejmelka also picked up an assist on a Nick Schmaltz tally late in the third period. The 27-year-old Vejmelka has won three games in a row and allowed just four goals on 93 shots in that span. He's at 11-17-2 with a 3.24 GAA and a .902 save percentage through 33 contests this season. The Coyotes are back to an alternating pattern for their goalies, so Connor Ingram will likely start Thursday versus the Predators, lining up Vejmelka for Saturday's game against the playoff-bound Rangers.
