32-year-old Jeff Glass to make NHL debut for Blackhawks vs. Oilers

Chicago Blackhawks netminder Jeff Glass will make his NHL debut Friday against the Edmonton Oilers at the age of 32. It’s a feat so ridiculous that when I searched his name on Getty Images for a photo, the best I could find was him suiting up for the Senators in the 2006 preseason. So ... it’s been a long road for Glass.

And now he gets to face Connor McDavid right off the bat! What could do wrong?

The Hawks are without Corey Crawford, who is on injured reserve, so backup goalie Anton Forsberg started in a 5-2 loss to the Canucks on Thursday night.
