Hockey Club's Karel Vejmelka: Earns five-year contract extension
Vejmelka signed a five-year, $23.75 million contract extension with Utah on Wednesday, Pierre LeBrun of TSN reports. Vejmelka's name has dangled in trade rumors for a couple of years, but that will now come to an end.
Kevin Kurz of The Athletic: The Philadelphia Flyers haven’t had any calls on pending UFA forward Andrei Kuzmenko. He has a 12-team no-trade clause, and they aren’t against moving him. He carries a $5.5 million cap hit and the idea of re-signing him at a lower number is also a potential option.
According to MoneyPuck, Karel Vejmelka ranks as the 16th best goalie in the NHL at 10.5 goals saved above expected. Stuart Skinner ranks 70th with -2.9 GSAx, and Pickard is even further behind him.
