The outlet iDNES.cz ran a report on Thursday that quoted Vokoun as saying that he nearly died after blood clots formed in his leg and that he was contemplating ending his career. The report was translated by TV NOVA Sport correspondent, Roman Jedlicka, and subsequently translated for SB Nation by a Czech language speaker.
Vokoun’s agent, Allan Walsh, stated on twitter that the quotes attributed to Vokoun are inaccurate:
Re: Vokoun - Comments attributed to him in the Czech media are not accurate. He is feeling good, will resume light workouts next week. (1)
