Blackhawks' Corey Crawford: Facing pucks Friday

Crawford will start in Friday's home game against the Blue Jackets, Mark Potash of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Analysis:

While Crawford has managed to allow two goals or fewer in five of his last seven starts, he's also mixed in two very poor showings where he allowed four goals each and was pulled from one of those starts after making just six saves. Consistency will be key for Crow as the season comes to a close and he'll look to get a hot streak going against a Columbus team that has struggled a bit down the stretch, averaging just 2.47 goals per game in March.
