Tomas Vokoun is ready to take on the role of a starting or backup goalie with the Penguins.
Vokoun was signed in the 2012 off-season as the backup to Marc-Andre Fleury but Fleury's poor performance in the post-season allowed Vokoun to take over as the number one netminder in the playoffs. Fleury is looking to rebound and grab the top job again and Vokoun would be happy in either role. "All I do is control what I can control," Vokoun said. "And when the coach tells me to play, I'm going to make sure that I'm ready to play well." Look for Vokoun to play 30-35 games this season. He should be drafted as a handcuff for Fleury. He had a 2.01 GAA and a .933 save percentage in 11 playoff games.
