Corey Crawford Becomes 20th Goaltender in NHL History to Record 50 Playoff Wins

After picking up wins in Games 1 and 3 of the Stanley Cup Qualifiers, Corey Crawford made NHL history by becoming the 20th goaltender to record at least 50 career postseason wins.

Crawford stopped 25 of 28 shots for a save percentage of .893 in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Edmonton Oilers. All stats from the qualifying round count towards the playoffs.

Only two active goaltenders have more postseason wins than Crawford: Marc-Andre Fleury (78) and Henrik Lundqvist (61). Tuukka Rask is tied with Crawford at 50.

Crawford is the only goaltender in Blackhawks history to reach the 50-win mark. Tony Esposito ranks No. 2 with 45 wins, respectively.
