The CTL panel discusses the Blackhawks' pulling of Corey Crawford in Wednesday night's game - 3/1
Transcript
Corey sixth time that he's been yanked this year you were talking to him asked him that question. That the youngsters confidence is shattered yet ball shattered I don't know -- considerably. Yeah I mean he we're asking him did you agree with Joel Quenneville pulling you last night said it was absolutely. The right thing ideas on more than one occasion he talked about has played. Lately hasn't been acceptable I mean I looked up the numbers for star -- and and tomorrow. Goalies but at least twenty starts this year in the NHL he ranks thirty ninth in the league in save percent now again. You talked -- posted today he said he's a good goalie and we did we get gave him no help last night we and that's true to some degree but. Do you not thirty ninth best save percentage goalie of all that groups if you're not. If it's all just mistakes in front of you still got back to him in the inconsistencies. He doesn't have the answers and he talked to him today and he's still searching for the answers here in less than twenty games left the season. That's a problem but the big problem. And Quenneville walks the fine line of of not shattering his conference because they think if you think you have a legitimate shot first of winning the Stanley Cup. You probably have a better chance of Corey Crawford is your net -- over Ray Emery but. The bottom line -- seventeen to go he's got to win games so we can't really worry too much about stopping at somebody's. You know ego like his. -- -- you know I know that a lot of people would say. Who cares how it feels good it matters you don't have I think it's a dangerous thing we start talking about. His confidence and if he's lost it or at least they -- hasn't been shattered like Brian said but. At least that's been spending a little denied -- you don't want that he's the last guy on the ice that you want to have any kind of confidence problem. A week ago he just any distraction for games -- stopped -- 115. Out of -- 120 shots those last week right. And now last two games he's given up seven goals on twenty shots I mean that's that's the -- part that guy can do it. The guy can be a really good goalie or at least. More than good enough to get you in the playoffs and get you far in the playoffs but. It's just so up and down and he just doesn't mean it's just for Jonathan Toews did not practice today will not make the trip to Ottawa correct pass till afterwards if it was possible that Toews could come at some point during the trip and he said he hopes up. And I'll have to see that he's progressing I think it's just one of those things where one day Jonathan Toews and a wake up in the better. And there's just no real timeline -- and when that day is next week or June or July I'm not even I I don't know of anybody now. So we -- with concussions that you just you're not going to be able to know -- you think that some guys can get over it soon in a matter of weeks and takes months of not over a year fit at that if the report is true that shot sustained it and play five more games that's probably. Another thing that neurologists are dealing with right now they wanna make sure that you know everything checks out here because. Maybe he did go back on the ice when things were still up a little funny I can't Sam Hurd and can cost but I mean -- in Dan would know about this in the NFL I mean you. There's a lot of things you have to go through and it ended and it's not something that just necessarily goes away I mean you're dealing with -- even when you get back in the competition if you feel a certain way afterwards. You know after after work out or whatever they're not gonna try and back out there.

Toews knows momentum must carry over to Game 6It's fair we're workforce for. Can come museum thoughts and discuss it shelf it. He just I think you have a positive feeling and walker on the bench that anything can happen so we got that feeling again. I think that's it's focus on game six now. Because tonight was the toughest canisters and most of your tougher games six or. we've we've got some momentum Mario carried into the national memorable for you it's not Yeah. Yeah I mean really we've seen. Some shifts in the last few games Detroit Lleyton in. Maybe affairs especially when when we're true on goal and we have all five guys just just town in the park my relentless hockey game and that's how we create chances and we're brought down the carpet courts tomorrow and look what happened so. We kept Mazzone can play realize that we kept shooting and and mentioned extra goings on where we. We played as competitively on the power play. As you normally for a partially due out in your chances Start going eventually Johnson and Jonathan any goals obviously important it was or extra emotion on your getting him more importantly I guess it's just nice to see him going. You work so hard for something games and not only yourself but your line meets the guys that are out there worth caring and think that those are conference I don't care who you are going she's going to feel like you can do it again. And that's feeling only myself when I was thirteen you know he didn't need them. Certainly you look. I think and their goaltender and you that we had guys don't call thinks he's an event. I'm keeping on going on the other side so I think here's shoes maybe expecting him options. Discharged affirm that. you really shoot lower price sometimes as a second opportunity to chuckling going and and fifteen feet I don't think so we worked hard again good position. We've had success summoned to keep them to one another it's. Yeah pretty much. We have an opportunity in game six to force another game and you know we we've we've had some good things in quite some good hockey at times. Entering game three and four arbitration we came up short is their chance to Europe to redeem when there.
