Vejmelka stopped 27 of 28 shots in Friday's 2-1 overtime win over the Kraken.
EDGE Analysis
Vejmelka has won four of his six outings in March, allowing 12 goals in that span. The 27-year-old gave up a goal to Ryker Evans in the third period, but the Coyotes pulled off some late heroics Friday. Vejmelka is up to 10-17-2 with a 3.28 GAA and a .901 save percentage through 32 appearances this season. He's expected to alternate starts with Connor Ingram down the stretch -- that lines up Ingram for Sunday's game versus the Stars while Vejmelka would be on track to start Tuesday against the Blue Jackets.

Vejmelka made 37 saves in a 4-1 win over the Devils on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Nick DeSimone, playing in his second game with the Devils, was the only man to beat Vejmelka. The Devils defender started a rush and finished it with a shot inside the left post off a pass from Curtis Lazar. Vejmelka had a horrendous first two months of 2024, going 0-8-0 with 37 goals allowed in eight starts before ringing off a 3-2-0 record and just 11 goals against over five starts in March. Arizona hasn't been a reliable team this season, but Vejmelka might be an underrated fantasy play over the next few weeks.

Vejmelka allowed three goals on 26 shots in Thursday's 5-2 loss to Minnesota.
EDGE Analysis
After two solid starts with a save percentage of .919 or better, Vejmelka floundered again on Thursday, posting an .885 save percentage. It wasn't all his fault, but that's a poor balm at this point in the season. The team will make it hard for him to bounce back as it ships out players at the trade deadline. It's difficult to see how things get better in the desert.

With Connor Ingram winless since Jan. 22, the Coyotes' starting job between the pipes could be up for grabs.
