Crawford was always the type of goaltender that would put up unbelievable numbers in the most boring way possible.

Even in junior, every shot would hit his chest and the play would be dead. Watching him play since he was 17 I don't think I've ever seen him make a spectacular high-light reel save. That said, it's because he's always in position and just controlled any rebound.

When 1qqaaz posted how he has a better save percentage over some legends, I thought "yeah that sounds right" despite no one ever talking about him.

Hope all is well with him. He was never my favourite, but that basically boils down to a rivalry in junior.

Wish him all the best, and I'd be super happy for him if he ended up in the hall.
