Tomas Vokoun was perfect for the Pens this week. With Marc-Andre Fleury struggling late in the game Tuesday night, the Pens put Vokoun in to close out the game. While he only defended seven shots, he saved all seven of them. The Isles were already up comfortable but the late game performance was good enough to get Vokoun the start Thursday night.
While in the goal against the Rangers, Vokoun posted another perfect performance. He fought off the Rangers all night, defending and saving all 28 shots that New York put up. Vokoun has shown that he can provide great relief off the bench so far this season and for his play this week, we’re giving him the Yinzer of the Week Award.
Be sure to check in next Saturday for the next installment of the Yinzer of the Week.
