(Chicago, IL) — The Corey Crawford era is over with the Blackhawks after 13 seasons. General Manager Stan Bowman announced yesterday that the team will not renew the 35-year-old netminder’s deal when it expires at the start of NHL free agency this morning. Crawford was a second-round pick of Chicago in 2003 before stepping into the starting role for the 2010-11 season. He is the franchise’s only goalie to win multiple Stanley Cups in 2013 and 2015, and owns franchise records for playoff wins and regular-season save percentage. The Quebec native also appeared in two NHL All-Star Games and represented his country in the 2016 World Cup of Hockey, helping Team Canada win the gold medal.
