Former Chicago Blackhawks goalie Corey Crawford has retired from the NHL.
The Chicago Blackhawks would be without Corey Crawford this season as he signed with the New Jersey Devils earlier this offseason. However, he has changed his mind and will now enter retirement at the age of 36.
Crawford has dealt with some concussion issues in the past, so his decision to retire is not the biggest surprise. He leaves the NHL a two time Stanley Cup Champion with a record of 260-162-53 over the course of his career and a playoff record of 52-42.
