Blackhawks G Crawford could return Friday

CHICAGO -- Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville says goaltender Corey Crawford could return Friday against Colorado.

Crawford had an emergency appendectomy in Philadelphia on Dec. 3. He skated again before Sunday night's game against San Jose, and Quenneville says he "looks good, feels better."

Crawford, who turns 32 on Dec. 31, is 12-6-2 with a 2.27 goals-against average in 20 games this season. He made the All-Star team last year for the first time.
