Corey Crawford will be the man in net for the Chicago Blackhawks once the Stanley Cup playoffs begin.
So says head coach Joel Quenneville, who gave an update on the injured goalie who hasn't played since March 14 with an upper-body issue.
When asked if Corey Crawford was his starting goaltender for Game 1, Quenneville was a little more certain: "Absolutely."

Crawford himself added he hopes to play the final regular-season game in preparation for the postseason, with Scott Darling starting the other two.
Through 57 appearances, Crawford was playing some of the best hockey of his career, recording a career-high 35 wins, along with seven shutouts and a .926 save percentage.
