Stauber posted a 29-save shutout in Saturday's 6-0 win over the Golden Knights.
Stauber earned his first career shutout and has won six of seven NHL appearances. He impressed in a short stint with the Blackhawks in 2022-23 but spent all of 2023-24 with AHL Rockford. Utah had been reluctant to give Stauber a start since Connor Ingram (upper body) landed on injured reserve, but it appears that cautious approach was misguided. Karel Vejmelka has seen a heavy workload recently, and Utah doesn't have another back-to-back until next weekend. It wouldn't be surprising if Stauber got to start Saturday versus the Sabres or Sunday against the Flyers if Ingram hasn't been cleared to return.
