CHICAGO — The idea that he could be standing in net as the Chicago Blackhawks clinch a championship at home certainly occupies a corner of Corey Crawford's mind.
It hasn't happened since 1938, when they were known as the "Black Hawks." But that could be about to change.
The Blackhawks and Lightning are tied 2-2 in the Stanley Cup Final heading into Game 5 at Tampa Bay on Saturday. Win that, and Chicago will have a chance to clinch at home on Monday.
"It's definitely motivation," Crawford said.
