Crawford will be in goal for Thursday's Game 3 against the Ducks, Lance Pugmire of the Los Angeles Times reports. Crawford is coming off a great outing in Game 2 where he saved 60 of 62 shots and will look to build on that effort in Game 3 with the series tied 1-1.

Ccawford turned aside 60 of 62 shots in Tuesday's triple-overtime Game 2 win over the Ducks. Just another spectacular outing for Crawford, who continues to deliver outstanding play in net for Chicago. It took the equivalent of nearly two games, but he and the 'Hawks have evened the series at 1-1 as it heads back to Chicago.

Crawford will be in the net for Tuesday's Game 2 against the Ducks, Eric Stephens of the Orange County Register reports. Crawford had his worst game Sunday since taking back the top goalie gig from Scott Darling late in the first-round series win over the Predators. He gave up three goals on 26 shot attempts, but the steady play that preceded his Game 1 outing will prompt coach Joel Quenneville to stick with him. Crawford will have a slight tweak on defense in front of him, as Kyle Cumiskey is expected to draw in for David Rundblad on a pairing with Johnny Oduya.

Crawford allowed three goals on 26 shots in Sunday's Game 1 loss to the Ducks. Not the greatest start to Round 3 for Crawford, who was outdueled by Ducks' netminder Frederik Andersen. While it marked the second straight outing Crawford has given up three goals, it was just his first loss in six games. Crawford has taken back over the Chicago crease, so if the Hawks hope to get past the Ducks and the surging Andersen, Crawford will need to be at his very best.

Crawford will be in the net for Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals on Sunday versus the Ducks. Crawford reestablished himself as the Blackhawks' man in the net with steady play during the team's sweep of the Wild in the second round, giving up seven goals in the four-game series. He'll match up against Frederik Andersen in Sunday's tilt at the Honda Center.

Crawford made 34 saves on 37 shots Thursday to complete a four-game sweep of the Wild. Crawford's terrific run continues, as he's now won five straight games since finishing the Predators off in relief in Game 6 of the first round. Now the Blackhawks will sit back and wait to find out whether they'll face Anaheim or Calgary -- probably Anaheim -- in the Western Conference Final. Regardless of the opponent, it's sure to be Crawford between the pipes for Chicago.

Crawford will draw the start Thursday for Game 4 against Minnesota, Tracey Myers of CSN reports. Crawford turned away all 30 shots he faced in Game 3 and has allowed just one goal in the last 61 shots on net. He'll be in net again Thursday as Chicago looks to complete the sweep over Minnesota.

Crawford turned away all 30 pucks the Wild fired on him in Tuesday's 1-0 Game 3 victory. Ever since retaking the reins from Scott Darling in Game 6 against Nashville, Crawford has been a man on fire, stopping 103 of 107 shots (.962) over the last four games -- all Blackhawks wins. In fact, he's made exactly 30 saves in three straight games. There's no doubt that Crawford will be in there once more for Game 4 in Minnesota on Thursday.

Crawford will be back in the crease for Tuesday's Game 3 against the Wild, Chris Kuc of the Chicago Tribune reports. After delivering victories for the Blackhawks in the first two games of the series, Crawford will unsurprisingly remain in the crease as his team looks to extend its playoff winning streak against the Wild to nine games. Should he struggle as the series shifts to Minnesota, Crawford probably would still have to worry about getting replaced by Scott Darling as the Blackhawks' primary netminder, but for now, coach Joel Quenneville will ride Crawford while he's playing well.

Crawford turned aside 30 of 31 shots in Sunday's Game 2 win over the Wild. Crawford wasn't great in Friday's Game 1 win, but he was able to turn it around to deliver a strong performance Sunday. The Hawks have struggled to find consistency in net in the playoffs thus far, but Crawford seems to be finding his form as he's denied 60 of 64 shots in the series (.937 save percentage) and figures to be back between the pipes for Tuesday's Game 3.
