The Chicago Blackhawks are letting one of the top goalies in franchise history walk when Corey Crawford hits free agency on Friday.

Personally, I never would have thought Corey Crawford would play an NHL game with a different team, yet here we are. The Chicago Blackhawks announced earlier today that Crawford would not re-sign with the team.

Corey Crawford has been the Blackhawks starting goalie since 2011. Drafted in the second round of the 2003 NHL draft, Crawford has played in 488 games with the Blackhawks and has gotten 260 wins.
