Crawford is day-to-day with an upper-body injury, and won't travel to Winnipeg for Friday night's matchup with the Jets.
EDGE Analysis
It's quite possible that Crawford has been bothered by his upper-body injury during his last two starts, as the 31-year-old netminder has played poorly in back-to-back appearances, registering an 0-2-0 record with a horrendous 5.95 GAA and .800 save percentage in his last two outings. Luckily for his owners, Crawford's ailment doesn't appear to be overly serious, meaning he could be back between the pipes as soon as Sunday against the Wild. The Blackhawks should provide an update on the former second-round pick's status ahead of puck drop Sunday evening.

Crawford was horrendous Monday, giving up five goals on 25 shots in a 5-0 beatdown at the hands of the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Don't look now, but the NHL's shutout leader (seven) with the second-most wins (35) has now served up a whopping nine goals over his last two games. After rattling off three tough victories against Washington and Detroit twice, Crawford has dropped three straight games, which has to be frustrating for fantasy owners who have come to expect big things this year from the 31-year-old. After doing his best swiss-cheese impression against L.A. on Monday, the two-time Stanley Cup winner's GAA sits at 2.32 to go with a .926 save percentage and 35-18-4 record this season.

Crawford will protect the net Monday against the Kings, Brian Hedger of NHL.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Crawford stumbled a bit in Friday's start against the Starts, allowing four goals on 20 shots before being pulled. His home matchup Monday doesn't make things any easier, as the netminder will prepare to face a Kings club that averages 2.85 goals per game on the road this season. However, Crawford's home splits (1.74 GAA, .944 save percentage) still make him a decent fantasy option in both season-long and daily formats.

Crawford was pulled Friday against Dallas after giving up four goals on 20 shots.
EDGE Analysis
While Crawford didn't have his best outing, the Stars outplayed the Blackhawks and got goals from superstars Jamie Benn and Tyler Seguin. Crawford has been outstanding in his previous five appearances, so we really wouldn't be too worried. The 31-year-old still owns a 35-17-4 record on the season with a .927 save percentage. The Blackhawks are in a minor slump right now, but Crawford is too good not to get back in the win column soon.

Crawford will be between the pipes in Friday's road game against the Stars, Tracey Myers of CSN Chicago reports.
EDGE Analysis
Crawford has been red hot lately, posting a 3-1-1 record with an impressive 1.78 GAA and .943 save percentage in his last five appearances. The former second-round pick will look to pick up his 36th win of the season Friday in a decent road matchup with a banged-up Dallas squad that will be without two of its best offensive weapons, John Klingberg (lower body) and Patrick Sharp (lower body), in Friday evening's contest.

Crawford stopped 28 of 30 shots before eventually falling 3-2 in the shootout Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
The loss snaps a three-game winning streak for Crow, who has allowed two goals or less in five straight starts. This one really could have gone either way, as it required a whopping 24 shooters in the shootout to decide the victory. Nonetheless, Crawford's terrific season continues, as he now owns a 2.21 GAA and a .929 save percentage to go with a 35-16-4 record.

Crawford will get the start in goal in Wednesday's road game against the Blues, Tracey Myers of CSN Chicago reports.
EDGE Analysis
Crawford was outstanding in his last outing, stopping 33 of 34 shots en route to a 4-1 win over the Red Wings on Sunday. The former second-round pick will look to pick up his 36th win of the season Wednesday in a tough road matchup with a hot St. Louis team that has won three consecutive games, scoring at least four goals in each of those victories.

Crawford denied 33 of 34 shots in Sunday's win over the Red Wings.
EDGE Analysis
He just keeps chugging along, as Crawford has won three straight while tallying a .949 save percentage and allowing just five goals total in that span. His 35th victory of the season ranks only behind Braden Holtby among the league leaders, so there's no reason not to keep the 31-year-old inserted in your lineup.

Crawford will get the start in goal in Sunday's home game against the Red Wings, Tracey Myers of CSN Chicago reports.
EDGE Analysis
Crawford has been hot of late, registering a 2-1-0 record with a 2.02 GAA and .936 save percentage in his last three outings. The 31-year-old netminder will look to pick up his 35th win of the season Sunday in a decent home matchup with a Red Wings team averaging 2.42 goals per game on the road this season, 16th in the NHL.

Crawford improved to 34-16-3 after allowing just two goals on 33 shots Wednesday in Detroit.
EDGE Analysis
Crawford has been phenomenal all season for the Blackhawks, but their propensity to score in bunches like they did in this one is the key behind his phenomenal record. He has now won two straight starts following a 1-4-1 stretch, and is likely to continue his winning ways moving forward considering the team in front of him.
