There is “growing concern” within the Chicago Blackhawks organization that Corey Crawford will miss the remainder of the 2017-18 season due to “vertigo-like symptoms,” reports the Chicago Sun-Times’ Mark Lazerus. The star goaltender has been out since Dec. 23 with an undisclosed upper-body injury.
This is the most detail we’ve gotten yet regarding what’s caused Crawford to be sidelined amid another stellar season. A spokesperson for the Blackhawks declined to comment to Lazerus on the details of the goaltender’s status, citing team policy, but it’s an indication that his return may not come as soon as the team has suggested.
