Playing career
editJunior
editCrawford was drafted 52nd overall in the 2003 NHL Entry Draft by the Chicago Blackhawks. He spent his pre-junior career playing for the Midget AAA Gatineau Intrépides, before spending his junior career with the Moncton Wildcats of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League (QMJHL). Crawford was the goaltender for the Wildcats in the 2003–04 QMJHL playoffs, when they ousted the Rimouski Océanic in the semi-finals to advance to the President's Cup final, but lost that series to the Gatineau Olympiques. Crawford currently holds the Wildcats record for lowest goals against average (GAA) (2.47 in 2004–05), most wins (35 in 2003–04) and is tied with Simon Lajeunesse for most shutouts in a season (six in 2004–05). He was twice named to the QMJHL's Second All-Star team (2003–04, 2004–05). The Wildcats retired Crawford's No. 29 on November 24, 2023.[1]
Professional
editChicago Blackhawks (2005–2020)
editCareer beginnings (2005–2010)
editCrawford spent the first five years of his professional career in the American Hockey League (AHL) from 2005 to 2010.[2]
Crawford made his AHL-debut for the Norfolk Admirals, then the AHL-affiliate of the Blackhawks on October 14, 2005. After spending most of his first two professional seasons with the Admirals, Crawford spent most of the next three seasons playing for the Blackhawks new AHL-affiliate, the Rockford IceHogs. He appeared in 255 AHL games from 2005–2010, where he went 135–98–13 as a starter, with a 2.78 GAA, .908 save percentage, and 8 shutouts.[3] The IceHogs retired Crawford's No. 29 on February 12, 2024.[4]
Crawford made his NHL debut with the Blackhawks halfway into the 2005–06 season on January 22, 2006, against the Minnesota Wild. He relieved Adam Munro in the third period, made seven saves and did not allow any goals. He recorded his first career start against the St. Louis Blues on February 2. He finished the evening with five goals allowed and 29 saves in a 6–5 shootout loss.
He recorded his first career win and shutout, a 3–0 win against the Anaheim Ducks on March 5, 2008.[5][6] Crawford also recorded a strong performance against the Detroit Red Wings, stopping 45 of 47 shots in a 3–1 loss on March 11.[7]
The Blackhawks re-signed Crawford to a one-year deal on July 21, 2008.[8][9] Crawford was recalled from the (AHL) on November 28 to take the place of Nikolai Khabibulin, who had been injured two nights earlier but didn’t play and served as a backup on the bench.[10] After the 2008-09 season concluded, Crawford was recalled to the Blackhawks as the team’s emergency goalie for the 2009 playoffs.[11] With starting goaltender Nikolai Khabibulin injured, Crawford made his Stanley Cup playoffs debut on May 24, 2009, in the second period of game four of the Western Conference Finals against the defending Stanley Cup champion Detroit Red Wings, replacing Cristobal Huet. He stopped six of seven shots before being replaced by Huet after the second period and the Blackhawks would go on to lose the game 6–1 for a 3–1 deficit in the series. Crawford would backup Huet for game five which saw the Blackhawks lose the game 2–1 for a 4–1 defeat in the series.[12]
For the 2009–10 season, Crawford played a single game for the Blackhawks which came towards the end of the season on March 17, 2010, when he was called up from Rockford by the Blackhawks due to Cristobal Huet having the flu and he played that day against the Anaheim Ducks, which the Blackhawks were defeated 4–2.[13] Crawford also suited up for the following game against the Los Angeles Kings before getting sent back down to Rockford but Blackhawks head coach Joel Quenneville opted for Antti Niemi to play in the game instead and for Crawford to serve as the backup on the bench. For the 2010 playoffs, Antti Niemi backstopped the Blackhawks to their first Stanley Cup in 49 years in a six game series win against the Philadelphia Flyers in the finals. Due to playing only one game in the regular season and none in the playoffs, Crawford did not qualify to have his name engraved on the Stanley Cup but did receive a championship ring and took part in the Stanley Cup parade.
Stardom, Jennings Trophy wins, backstopping Stanley Cup titles (2010–2017)
editDue to the departures of starter Antti Niemi to the San Jose Sharks and Cristobal Huet to the HC Fribourg-Gotteron of the Swiss National League A in the 2010 off-season, Crawford was promoted to back-up goaltender behind Marty Turco, formerly of the Dallas Stars whom the Blackhawks signed in free agency to a one-year deal. Shortly into the 2010–11 season, Crawford became the team's starting goaltender, replacing the veteran Turco. He had a two-game shutout streak later in the season (from January 7 to 15 with a 5–0 win over the New York Islanders on January 9, 2011 and a 4–0 win over the Colorado Avalanche on January 12, respectively) and compiled a 176:09 shutout streak. This was the longest by a Blackhawks netminder since Tony Esposito from January 16 to 30, 1972.[14] From February 20 until March 5, 2011, Crawford had an eight-game win streak, setting a new record for the longest such streak for a rookie.[15][16] The streak was also one game short of the team record set by Glenn Hall.
Crawford earned his 30th win of his rookie season on March 28, 2011, in a 3–2 overtime win against the Detroit Red Wings, becoming the first Blackhawks goaltender to reach the 30-win milestone since Jocelyn Thibault did it with 33 wins in 2001–02.[17] Crawford finished the 2010–11 season, his first full season playing in 57 games with a 33–18–6 record, 4 shutout wins, 2.30 GAA and .917 save percentage. In the first round of the 2011 playoffs, his first full playoff series against the Presidents' Trophy-winning Vancouver Canucks, he recorded his first career playoff assist on April 19, in game four in a Blackhawks 7–2 win on a goal scored by Brian Campbell becoming the first ‘Hawks goaltender since Dominik Hasek in 1991 to record an assist in a playoff game.[18] In game five on April 21, he recorded a 36-save shutout, marking the first time he recorded a shutout in the Stanley Cup playoffs, and the Blackhawks' largest margin of victory (5–0) in franchise history in a playoff game. In game five, Crawford also added another rare assist on a goal scored by Marián Hossa.[19] After recovering from a 3–0 series deficit to force a game seven, the Blackhawks ultimately lost game seven to the Canucks 2–1 in overtime and the series 4–3 on April 26 when Canucks forward Alexandre Burrows scored the game and series-winning goal for Vancouver in the overtime period.
On May 19, 2011, Crawford signed a three-year, $8 million contract extension with the Blackhawks. After the 2010–11 season, he was named to the NHL All-Star Rookie Team.[20] Following the 2010–11 season, Crawford entered the 2011–12 season as the Blackhawks' number one netminder. After starting the year off strong, Crawford struggled for a majority of the season and was often benched in favour of veteran backup Ray Emery, (who signed with the Blackhawks in free agency to fill the void left by Turco’s departure) played extensively down the stretch. However, Emery could not solidify his hold on the starter's role and as a result, Crawford reclaimed the team's starting goaltender position. After going 8–1–2 over his last 11 games, Crawford was confirmed as the starter for the Blackhawks heading into the 2012 playoffs where the Blackhawks lost in the first round for the second consecutive year, this time to the Phoenix Coyotes in six games. In all, Crawford finished his second full season playing in 57 games and posting a 30–17–7 record with a .903 save percentage and 2.72 GAA with no shutouts. He became the first Blackhawks goalie to win at least 30 games in back-to-back seasons since Ed Belfour did it in the 1992–93 and 1993–94 seasons.
Entering the lock-out-shortened 2012–13 season, there were doubts as to whether Crawford could return to his stellar form from the 2010–11 season. The team re-signed Emery in the 2012 off-season to give him a push for continuing the starting job. The Blackhawks started off the abbreviated 48-game season with a point streak of 24 consecutive games (21–0–3), with Crawford getting off to a strong 11–0–3 start before struggling in a loss on to the Colorado Avalanche on March 8, 2013, in which he was pulled midway through the game in favor of Emery after allowing three goals on 16 shots as the Blackhawks would go on to lose the game 6–2. He finished the season with a record of 19–5–5 in 30 games, with a 1.94 GAA, and a .926 save percentage with three shutouts. Due to his efforts, he was awarded the William M. Jennings Trophy along with Emery, who finished with a 1.94 GAA as well. After helping the Blackhawks win the Presidents' Trophy as the regular season champions, Crawford was confirmed as the starter for the 2013 playoffs and started every game as Chicago eventually won the Stanley Cup, prevailing over the Boston Bruins in six games.
On September 2, 2013, Crawford signed a six-year, $36 million contract extension with the Blackhawks through the 2019–20 season.[21][22] On December 11, Crawford sustained a groin injury in a game against the Philadelphia Flyers and would leave the game with back-up rookie goaltender Antti Raanta for the rest of the game which the Blackhawks defeated the Flyers 7–2. Crawford would miss the next eight games before returning on January 2, 2014, in a 3–2 OT loss to the New York Islanders.[23] Crawford would finish the 2013–14 season with a 32–16–10 record, .917 save percentage and 2.26 GAA in 59 games played. During the 2014 playoffs, Crawford and the Blackhawks would make another deep playoff run as the defending Stanley Cup champions by defeating the St. Louis Blues in six games in round one and the Minnesota Wild in the second round in six games before losing in the Western Conference Finals to the eventual Stanley Cup champion Los Angeles Kings in seven games, one win short from a second consecutive appearance in the Stanley Cup Finals.[24]
Crawford started the 2014–15 season with a 12–5–1 record. He injured his foot, however, on December 1, 2014, while attending a Rise Against concert. Due to this, Crawford was expected to miss two-to-three weeks.[25] Crawford returned to action on December 20, in a 3-2 SO loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets. Crawford was selected to play in the 2015 NHL All-Star Game, one of six players selected via fan-vote (the others being his teammates Duncan Keith, Brent Seabrook, Patrick Kane and Jonathan Toews, as well as the Buffalo Sabres' Zemgus Girgensons), marking Crawford’s first career All—Star games.[26] On March 23, 2015, Crawford became the fourth goalie in Blackhawks franchise history to have four 30-win seasons recording his 30th win of the season that day in a 3–1 victory over the Carolina Hurricanes. Crawford and Carey Price of the Montreal Canadiens, won the William M. Jennings Trophy for the 2014–15 season.[27] He finished the season with a 32–20–5 record, recording a 2.27 GAA, a .924 SV % and two shut outs in 57 games. After allowing nine goals in two first round playoff games against the Nashville Predators, Crawford was benched in favour of back-up rookie goaltender Scott Darling, who posted three wins and one loss against the Predators.[28] Crawford relieved Darling in game six of the series on April 25 after the Predators scored three goals in the first period. Crawford stopped all 13 shots he faced en route to a 4–3 win to take the series 4–2.[29] Crawford was named the starter over Darling by head coach Joel Quenneville for the second round against the Minnesota Wild. Crawford started all four games in the second round sweep over Minnesota, allowing seven goals in those four games. Crawford also performed well in the following round versus the top seeded Anaheim Ducks, leading Chicago to a 4–3 series win after initially trailing 3–2 earlier in the series. On June 15, Crawford collected his second shutout of the 2015 playoffs in a 2–0 victory over the Tampa Bay Lightning in Game 6 of the 2015 Stanley Cup Finals to give the Blackhawks their a 4–2 series victory and third Stanley Cup in the last six seasons. The win was also the second Stanley Cup for Crawford in his career as a starting goaltender.
During the 2015–16 season, Crawford appeared in 58 games for the Blackhawks. He posted a 2.37 goals-against average (GAA), a .924 save percentage, 35 wins, and seven shutouts. On March 17, 2016, The Blackhawks announced that Crawford would miss indefinite amount of time due to an unspecified upper-body injury.[30] Crawford ultimately returned to action for the season finale on April 9, in a 5–4 overtime loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets.[31] Crawford finished the year with a career high 35 wins and tied his career high save percentage at .924. He also had a career high seven shutouts, which also led the NHL among goalies. He broke Tony Esposito's franchise playoff record for wins, with his 46th playoff win after stopping 29 shots in a 3–2 Game 2 first round victory over the St. Louis Blues. The defending Stanley Cup champion Blackhawks would eventually be eliminated from the 2016 playoffs by the Blues in seven games.[32]
Crawford underwent emergency appendectomy surgery on December 3, 2016, in Philadelphia on the morning before a road game against the Philadelphia Flyers.[33] He returned to the Blackhawks lineup in their game at home against the Colorado Avalanche on December 23.[34] Crawford was selected to play 2017 NHL All-Star Game for the second All-Star game of his career.[35] Crawford finished the 2016–17 season with a 32–18–4 record, while recording a 2.55 GAA and a .918 save percentage in 55 games played.[36] The Blackhawks won the Central Division and Western Conference, but were swept by the eighth seeded Nashville Predators in the first round of the 2017 playoffs.[37]
Later seasons in Chicago (2017–2020)
editCrawford started the 2017–18 season ranking seventh in the NHL with a 2.29 GAA and fourth with a .930 save percentage in 21 appearances. On December 1, 2017, the Blackhawks placed Crawford on IR after he sustained a lower-body injury the previous night.[38] Crawford returned on December 10 against the Arizona Coyotes after missing three games, but sustained an undisclosed upper-body injury after playing in seven games.[39] The Blackhawks eventually revealed that Crawford suffered a concussion and would be out indefinitely, but were hopeful that he could return before the end of the season for a playoff push.[40] However, the Blackhawks fell into last place in the Central Division, and were eliminated from playoff contention in mid March. The Blackhawks left Crawford on IR for the remainder of the season and the Blackhawks missed the playoffs for the first time since 2008 after finishing the season 19 points out of a playoff spot.[41]
After missing 52 games including the first five of the 2018–19 season, Crawford returned to the Blackhawks on October 18, 2018 in a 4–1 loss to the Arizona Coyotes.[42] He collected his first win of the season on October 20, in a 4–1 victory over the Columbus Blue Jackets. Crawford suffered another concussion on December 16 after San Jose Sharks forward Evander Kane shoved teammate Dylan Strome into him, causing him to smack the back of his head on the goal post.[43] The Blackhawks placed Crawford on IR again.[44] Crawford recorded a .902 save percentage and 3.28 GAA up to that point in the season.[43] On February 25, 2019, The Blackhawks activated Crawford from IR after missing 28 games.[45] His strongest performance of the season came on March 16, when made a career-high 48 saves en route to a 2–0 win against his hometown team, the Montreal Canadiens.[46] Crawford posted a 7–4–3 record in his next 15 starts and finished the 2018–19 season with a 14–18–5 record, a .908 save percentage and 2.77 goals against average.[47] Crawford missed the Blackhawks' season finale on April 6 against the Nashville Predators after sustaining a groin injury during the team's penultimate game the previous day against the Dallas Stars.[45] For the first time in his career, Crawford was named the Blackhawks nominee for the Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy, the award given to the player who exemplifies the best qualities of perseverance, sportsmanship and dedication to the game of hockey but didn't make the final three by the NHL.[48]
Prior to the 2019–20 season, the Blackhawks signed goaltender Robin Lehner to a one-year deal.[49] Lehner and Crawford shared the crease throughout the season until the Blackhawks dealt Lehner to the Vegas Golden Knights at the trade deadline in late February 2020.[50] Crawford started the remaining 10 games of the season before the last three weeks would get cancelled due to the restrictions surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic.[51] He finished the season with a 16–20–3, a .917 save percentage, 2.77 GAA, and one shutout.[51] Although he didn't make the final three by the NHL, Crawford's healthy 2019–20 season also saw Crawford be the Blackhawks Bill Masterton Trophy nominee for the second straight season and second time in his career.[52] Crawford was late to join the Blackhawks in preparing for the 2020 playoffs.[51] He later revealed he was recovering from COVID-19 but returned in time for the start of the qualifying round.[51] Crawford and the Blackhawks upset the Edmonton Oilers in the qualifying round of the playoffs, but lost to the Vegas Golden Knights in the first round in five games. Crawford started all nine games for the Blackhawks, posting a 3.31 GAA and .907 save percentage.[53]
On October 8, 2020, Blackhawks general manager Stan Bowman announced the team would not re-sign Crawford, ending his 17-year tenure with Chicago.[54] His 260 career wins are the third-most in Blackhawks franchise history. Crawford's 52 postseason wins are the most by any Blackhawks netminder. He is also the only Blackhawks goalie to win multiple Stanley Cup championships.[55]
Retirement
editOn October 9, 2020, Crawford signed a two-year $7.8 million contract with the New Jersey Devils.[56] He missed multiple days of the team's subsequent training camp due to "maintenance" or "personal reasons".[57][58] On January 8, 2021, the Devils announced Crawford would take an indefinite leave of absence.[59] The following day, Crawford announced his retirement from professional hockey without playing any games for the Devils.[60] He later attributed his decision to retire due to his on-going struggles with concussions he sustained throughout the later years of his career. In a February 2024 interview with The Athletic, Crawford explained, "It was definitely tough to end the way I did playing hockey, but it was the right choice for me. I was on a bunch of medications, benzos that I took, that they prescribed me. I was taking that all day for a while. It got to the point for my mental health I needed to stop playing and get back to being myself."[61]

He and his wife have three children.[61][63][64]
