Hopefully the Backups for the Preds are good, because Tomas Vokoun is out for the rest of the year with Thrombophlebitis.
“It is a circulatory problem that develops when a blood clot slows the circulation in a vein, either right under the skin or deeper in the leg. according to webmd.com”
I think this will seriously hurt any run to the cup for Nashville. Vokoun has been the backbone of that team. With his great save-making play gone, can Mason step up for the Preds? I think without Vokoun they can make a slight run, but if they get to a Dallas or Detroit, they would be destroyed. Thoughts?
