Though he has no "health issues" now, Tomas Vokoun (blood clot) is unsure whether his career will continue and ultimately will leave his future up to his doctor's recommendations.
Vokoun was slated to be the Penguins' back-up netminder this season but suffered a blood clot in late September and has been sidelined ever since. He spoke publicly about his health Saturday night and explained that he has not ruled out playing again or retiring. "I feel great," said Vokoun, who is still on medication. "I don't have any health issues. It's hard to look that far ahead. Definitely if I can (return) I want to try. In a month, I'll see the doctor and see what he thinks I should do. Then it's up to me to weigh pros and cons and make a decision."
