In his 15-year career, Tomas Vokoun had never advanced past the first round of the playoffs until this season. It is true that he played on some pretty bad Florida and Nahsville teams but it is telling. For what it is worth, Pens' GM Ray Shero is firmly behind his goaltender. "He's been one of the better goaltenders in the National Hockey League," Shero said. "He was just playing in Nashville and Florida for a long time", two of the NHL's smallest markets. Vokoun will have to be at his best to hold off a Bruins' squad that seems to be very confident now.
