Vejmelka Stops 28 As Utah Mammoth Shut Out Golden Knights 4-0

The Utah Mammoth defeated the Vegas Golden Knights 4-0 at T-Mobile Arena on March 19, 2026. Goaltender Karel Vejmelka anchored the road victory by turning away all 28 shots he faced to secure his second shutout of the season.

Utah set a franchise milestone by scoring on their first three shots of the game. The decisive win provides crucial points for the Mammoth, tightening their hold on the first wild-card spot in the Western Conference standings.

Captain Clayton Keller initiated the early offensive surge, netting the first two goals for Utah. Jack McBain quickly followed with a third strike. The immediate deficit prompted Vegas to pull starting goaltender Adin Hill before the first period concluded. Barrett Hayton secured the final margin with a late empty-net goal.

The outcome carries heavy implications across regional sports as the playoff race intensifies. Mammoth head coach André Tourigny praised the defensive effort, specifically highlighting Vejmelka’s presence in the crease as “rock solid” following the victory.

Vegas remains third in the Pacific Division but faces compounding offensive struggles. The Golden Knights have now been shut out in two consecutive home games. The team previously dropped a 2-0 decision to the Buffalo Sabres earlier in the week at T-Mobile Arena.
