Robin Lehner close to returning from knee injury

Corey Crawford was able to shake off the rust this week and give the Blackhawks two solid starts, but the team will be happy to welcome back goalie Robin Lehner, who's very close to returning.

Crawford and the Blackhawks were able to win one of two to start this week's four game homestand. The Hawks beat the Red Wings 4-2 on Sunday and lost to the Calgary Flames 1-2 on Tuesday.

Lehner, 12-7-4 with a 2.92 goals-against average and a .922 save percentage (10th in NHL), suffered a right knee injury in Thursday's 7-5 loss at Vancouver.
