After a rough patch Tomas Vokoun appears to have settled into the No. 1 goaltending spot in Washington. Vokoun undoubtably entered the season as the Capitals starting goaltender and for the first time since the days of Olaf Kolzig, Washington will boast an established true number-one goalie."Itƒ?Ts easier, especially on a goalie, when you can play" regularly, Vokoun said. "Itƒ?Ts obviously a little easier on your mental state of mind when you know youƒ?Tre going to play, even if you make a mistake. But saying that, this is a performance business, and if you donƒ?Tt perform, theyƒ?Tre going to put in somebody else." The veteran netminder is expected to make a ninth straight start on Sunday. "Tomas has been solid and his numbers show it since Iƒ?Tve been here," Caps coach Dale Hunter said.
