Corey Crawford Injury: Updates on Blackhawks Star’s Status and Return

October 21st, 2014 by Timothy Rapp Leave a reply »

Corey Crawford has played quite well to start the season for the Chicago Blackhawks. Unfortunately, he'll be a man on the bench on Tuesday evening as he's currently dealing with an injury.

The team's official Twitter account provided the update:



Crawford has indeed started rather strongly, with a 3-0-1 record, a 1.66 goals-against average and a.926 save percentage. He's allowed just six goals in regulation, turning aside 88 shots in the process. Once considered an inconsistent goalie, Crawford was quite good for the Blackhawks last season, helping lead them to the Western Conference finals.

The Blackhawks are lucky enough to have a talented backup in Antti Raanta, so they should be in good hands while Crawford is sidelined. Still, the Blackhawks will be hoping they get their top option back in goal sooner rather than later.
