Bruce Bennett/Getty ImagesHeading in the playoffs, Marian Hossa leads the Blackhawks with 77 points.There were moments during the first-round playoff series last year against the Vancouver Canucks when Patrick Sharp noticed something about goalie Corey Crawford, other than that he was playing extremely well.
He was also absolutely thriving in the experience. Crawford was a rookie goalie who seemed to enjoy it more when the pressure was raised to its highest.
It was no more apparent than Game 7 in Vancouver, when Crawford made 36 saves in an overtime losing effort.
"They had a ton of chances there," Sharp said. "We were chasing all game long, and Corey was making save after save. He was just locked in, enjoying the loud building and the atmosphere of the arena."
