Crawford will get the nod on the road against Minnesota on Saturday, Tracey Myers of NBC Sports Chicago reports.
EDGE Analysis
Crawford has been stellar to start the season, as he has a 1.91 GAA and a .941 save percentage through 11 games. Those numbers will likely get worse, but right now he's as hot as any goalie, especially coming off a shutout win.

Crawford shut down the Flyers, turning aside all 35 shots in Wendesday's 3-0 victory.
EDGE Analysis
Making Crawford's night more impressive was the fact that eight shots came on the power play for the Flyers, and he stood tall for the Hawks on all of them. Letting eight shots on three power plays reach the net is troubling, but Crawford is strong enough that he can produce even when his defense isn't a top-tie unit.

Crawford will guard the cage in Wednesday's home game against the Flyers, Tracey Myers of NBC Sports Chicago reports.
EDGE Analysis
Crawford has been dialed in this season, registering a 2.12 GAA and .935 save percentage in 10 appearances, but a lack of offensive support from his teammates has led to him posting a disappointing 5-4-0 record over that span. The 32-year-old backstop will look to snap a two-game losing streak Wednesday in a home matchup with a Philadelphia team that's averaging 3.50 goals per game on the road this season, sixth in the NHL.

Crawford allowed one goal on eight shots in relief during a 6-3 loss against the Avalanche on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
The Blackhawks starter was supposed to have the night off after picking up a victory against the Predators on Friday. But Anton Forsberg allowed five goals on 20 shots, so Crawford was pressed into duty. He was mostly good but wasn't really tested, as the Blackhawks dominated the puck while trailing in the final 30 minutes. Letting one slip past him, though, will drop his save percentage a few points.

Crawford saved 28 pf 30 shots during Friday's 2-1 loss to Nashville.
EDGE Analysis
While the veteran has now lost consecutive games, Crawford still sports a rock-solid .936 save percentage and 2.12 GAA through nine starts. It'll be interesting to see how long he can maintain his current numbers, though. After a hot start, Chicago sports a 5-4-2 record and is likely closer to a middle-of-the pack club than a high-end one. Crawford still projects to be a strong fantasy asset in all settings, but like the team in front of him, the 32-year old netminder can see his best days in the rearview mirror. It's worth noting that the Blackhawks have allowed the second most high-danger scoring chances per 60 minutes (13.1) at five-on-five this season, which definitely hurts Crawford's upside.

Crawford will man the crease for Friday's tilt with Nashville, Mark Lazerus of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Having long been considered to be a member of the league's top-tier of goalies, Crawford has begun 2017-18 at what would be a career-best pace, allowing 2.13 goals per game and owning a .937 save percentage. Crawford will be looking to maintain this elite level of play Friday when he takes on a Predators team that has lost consecutive games and scored just five goals over their last three contests.

Crawford yielded four goals on 29 shots in Tuesday night's 4-2 road loss to the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis
Chicago's top tender was outperformed by counterpart Oscar Dansk, who was making his first NHL start for the expansion Golden Knights. Crawdaddy brought an immaculate 5-2-0 record, 1.86 GAA and .945 save percentage into the contest, so chalk this one up as a minor road bump to an otherwise smooth start for the Quebec native.

Crawford will guard the cage against Vegas on Tuesday, Mark Lazerus of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 32-year-old has been phenomenal so far this season, and is rocking a 1.86 GAA and a .945 save percentage through seven games. Even though Vegas is averaging slightly above three goals scored per game this season, there's no reason why he can't continue his excellent start on the road.

Crawford stopped 27 of 29 shots in Saturday's win over the Coyotes.
EDGE Analysis
Crawford shut the door Saturday after allowing four goals in a loss to Blues in his last outing. The 32-year-old is sporting a phenomenal .945 save percentage in seven starts this season and once again showing why he's must-own fantasy material. Make sure you have him in your lineup every game, as Crawford plays almost every night for Chicago and has been one of the best fantasy goaltenders over the last few years.

Crawford will guard the cage in Saturday's road game against the Coyotes, Eric Lear of Blackhawks TV reports.
EDGE Analysis
Crawford has been fantastic this campaign, compiling a 4-2-0 record while registering a 1.84 GAA and .947 save percentage over six appearances. The 32-year-old backstop will look to keep rolling Saturday in a highly favorable matchup with a Coyotes club that's 0-7-1 this season.
