Blackhawks' Corey Crawford: Starting Friday in Detroit

Crawford will guard the cage in Friday's road game against the Red Wings, Mark Lazerus of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Analysis:

Crawford was sharp in his last start Thursday against Anaheim, turning aside 25 of the 26 shots he faced, but he ultimately suffered his 14th loss of the campaign due to a complete lack of goal support from his teammates. The 32-year-old netminder will look to stay hot and pick up his 27th victory of the season in a favorable road matchup with a Red Wings squad that's only averaging 2.35 goals per game at home in 2016-17, 26th in the NHL.
