With the Blackhawks’ goaltending issues being a consistent concern this offseason, Chicago may try looking to the Entry Draft to grab their goalie of the future. But do they have a chance to do so?

It’s no secret that the Chicago Blackhawks have to address their goaltending. Although Corey Crawford has been the Hawks’ bonafide starter for the last decade, he is now an unrestricted free agent. Chicago is working with just under $8 million in cap space, and as much as everyone would love to see Crow back at the United Center to stay, no guarantee will happen.
