Blackhawks' Corey Crawford: Wins despite another shaky outing Tuesday

Crawford halted 23 of 27 shots in Tuesday's win over the visiting Flyers.

Analysis:

Crawford entered the contest with a save percentage of .898 in a pair of starts, and it didn't get any better in this one. But when the final horn blared, you could hear the collective sigh of relief from the goalie's fantasy owners. He held on after allowing four unanswered goals in the second half of the contest, including the game-tying score early in the third. The night clearly belonged to 37-year-old forward Marian Hossa, whose power-play marker in the second stanza counted as his 500th career goal.
