goalie Corey Crawford will be sidelined again with a concussion.Crawford left Sunday’s 7-3 loss to the San Jose Sharks with 1:30 left in the first period after the back of his head struck the right post during a goalmouth pileup.The 33-year-old Crawford was pulled from a Dec. 23 Ryan Murray Jersey , 2017, game at New Jersey with a concussion and then missed the remainder of the 2017-18 season and the first five games of 2018-19. He returned on Oct. 18 against Arizona and is 6-14-2 with a 3.28 goals-against average in 23 games this season.Coach Jeremy Colliton announced Crawford’s injury following Sunday’s loss, but had no details on the severity or how long the goalie might be out.“He has a concussion,” Colliton said. “So he’ll be under the protocol and we’ll go from there.“I didn’t talk to him, but of course we’re concerned. I think a concussion is a concussion. Every concussion is different, so we’ll see.”On Sunday, Crawford allowed two goals on eight shots and left with Chicago leading 3-2.He was replaced by Cam Ward, who allowed five goals on 35 shots as San Jose roared back for its fourth straight win and dealt Chicago its 10th loss in 11 games.Crawford had just made a pad save on Logan Couture, who had broken in off the wing.As Couture cut across the crease, Chicago’s Dylan Strome tried to cut him off and slashed him.At the same instant Sergei Bobrovsky Jersey , San Jose’s Evander Kane plowed into Strome from behind and Strome tumbled into Crawford, forcing the goalie into the goalpost.

We’re going fast and were coming back hard.”Crawford, who broke in with the Blackhawks in 2005-06, became their No. 1 goalie in 2010-11. He backstopped Chicago to Stanley Cup wins in 2013 and 2015, but his 14 losses for the current last-place Blackhawks are the most in the NHL.“A great goaltender, a great guy, and important part of the team,” Colliton said. “We hope for a quick recovery.” UNIONDALE, N.Y. (AP) — The New York Islanders were energized by a boisterous home crowd as they rallied for a win in their first regular season game at Nassau Coliseum in more than 3 1/2 years.Casey Cizikas scored the tiebreaking goal in the third period and the Islanders beat the Columbus Blue Jackets 3-2 Saturday night.“It’s incredible Womens Seth Jones Jersey , I got goosebumps going down my body right now,” Cizikas said. “It was an emotional game today.

The right-handed shooting defenseman froze several Blue Jackets skaters as he circled the net and eventually found Cizikas all alone in front.“This is Islanders country plain and simple,” New York coach Barry Trotz said. “(The fans) are extremely passionate about their team.”It was the Islanders’ first regular season game at the Coliseum — the team’s home for 43 years from its inception in 1972 — since April 11, 2015.

We were able to use them to our advantage the whole night.”Markus Hannikainen and Pierre-Luc Dubois scored for Columbus, which had won two straight. Cam Atkinson had an assist for his 300th career point and extending his point streak to 10 games. Sergei Bobrovsky finished with 26 saves.“A couple of small mistakes when the game was on the line that we need to be better at,” Blue Jackets coach John Tortorella said. “It’s just so frustrating the two mistakes that caused that third goal.”Columbus capitalized on two New York turnovers in less than two minutes early in the second period to earn a 2-0 advantage.After Josh Bailey’s floating outlet pass could not be controlled by Beauvillier, Seth Jones launched a slap shot which forced a big rebound opportunity. Hannikainen found the loose puck and got his fourth of the season at 6:46.The Blue Jackets doubled their advantage shortly after when Dubois wired a wrist shot off the crossbar and into the back of the net at 8:33. Atkinson got his milestone point on the play.Lee cut the Blue Jackets’ lead in half with eight minutes remaining in the middle period. The goal was initially waived off by the referee because the puck went off Lee’s hand and then his body as he fell toward the goal, but after a video review the call on the ice was overturned.“When we scored that first goal, you could hear the fans and it carried us the rest of the game,” Mayfiled said. “You could really tell the energy in the building flipped to our side and we held it the rest of the game.”Just 2:25 later, Beauvillier made up for an earlier mistake http://www.officialbluejackets.com/authentic-adidas-zach-werenski-jersey , finishing his own rebound to knot the game 2-2.
