Tomas Vokoun allowed two goals on 40 shots as the Penguins are now on the brink of elimination after their 2-1 double-overtime loss to the Bruins on Wednesday night. It looked like it was going to be a long night for the Penguins -- and a short one for Vokoun -- as the netminder gave up a goal to David Krejci on the first shot he faced. But he settled down, making 38 straight saves until getting beat on a redirect from Patrice Bergeron. After getting pulled in the first period of Game 2 after giving up three goals on 12 shots, this was exactly what the Penguins needed from Vokoun. It just so happens that The Penguins will look to stave off elimination starting on Friday.
