Tomas Vokoun (lower body) skated on Monday, but he might not be available for Tuesday's game. The Capitals appear to be hedging their bets by keeping three goaltenders on their roster, including Braden Holtby. Michal Neuvirth has played between the pipes in five straight games and might get the nod again on Tuesday.

Tomas Vokoun sustained a lower body injury during warmups. Capitals coach Dale Hunter wouldn't go into detail about the cause or nature of the injury, but he did say that "it's a day-to-day thing." The timing is particularly unfortunate for Vokoun, who will probably start on Sunday if he's healthy enough to play. Michal Neuvirth kicked out 15 of 20 shots on Friday.

Tomas Vokoun hasn't been asked to waive his no-trade clause. "They didn't approach me, so I'm not going to speculate on that," Vokoun said. He doesn't think he'll be traded before the deadline and at this point, we're inclined to agree.

Coach Dale Hunter didn't pull any punches in his tough assessment of Tomas Vokoun's performance in Wednesday's 5-2 loss to Ottawa. "They jumped on us. Tomas would like a few of them back," Hunter said following the defeat. "He wasn't as sharp as he should have been, and it's in the back of our net. We need some big stops early that's part of the game and tonight we played a good, solid road game and we lose. Goaltending is a big part of the game and we need good goaltending." Vokoun allowed four goals on just 11 shots before getting pulled in the second period. It was the second time in as many games that he received the hook.

Tomas Vokoun stopped seven of 11 shots in a 5-2 loss Wednesday night. Michal Neuvirth replaced him midway through the second period and turned aside all 14 shots he faced. However, the damage was already done, so Vokoun will be charged with his third straight loss.

Tomas Vokoun will start in Washington's crease in Ottawa on Wednesday. He lasted just over five minutes on Monday against Carolina after allowing two goals on seven shots, so he'll be looking for a rebound performance. Vokoun owns a 23-15-2 record with a .920 save percentage and a 2.45 GAA.

Tomas Vokoun allowed two goals on seven shots before he was pulled roughly five minutes into Monday's contest against the Carolina Hurricanes. Before tonight's game, Vokoun was 13-9-2 with a 2.15 GAA, a .930 SV% and three shutouts in his last 24 starts. Michal Neuvirth made 30 saves tonight but gave up the final three goals.

Tomas Vokoun will play between the pipes on Monday. Vokoun kicked out 21 of 23 shots on Saturday, but still ended up with the loss. He has allowed two or fewer goals in each of his last four starts.

Tomas Vokoun stopped 21 of the 23 shots he faced in a 2-1 loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning on Saturday night. Coming off a strong performance in a 2-1 victory over the Florida Panthers, Tomas Vokoun looked to shut down the Panthers' offence. The Lightning jumped ahead 2-0 After Vokoun surrendered a breakaway goal in the second period. The breakaway goal would stand as the game winner, dropping Vokoun to 23-14-2 on the season.

Washington Capitals goaltender Tomas Vokoun stopped 22 of 23 shots to contribute to his team's 2-1 victory over the Panthers in Florida Friday night. Vokoun had missed the Caps' previous two games with the flu.
