I didn’t realize it then, but I certainly appreciate now how amazing it was to play in the NHL. I want to thank the Chicago Blackhawks’ entire organization, from top to bottom, especially including the fans. The 2010 Championship was the highlight of my career. I also want to thank Brad Treliving for letting me come home to finish my NHL career. As a person and a GM, he made a huge impact on me."

C. Crawford - G

CHI

Corey Crawford allowed four goals on 34 shots in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Vegas Golden Knights.

Crawford made some big saves to keep this game tight, but he allowed a back-breaking goal to Reilly Smith in the third period to make it 3-1 for Vegas. The veteran got a piece of Smith's wrist shot with his blocker but he allowed the puck to pounce in behind him. Crawford's margin for error will be slim in this series if the Blackhawks will want to cause a surprise. Game 2 of this series will be played on Thursday night.

R. Lehner - G

VGK

Robin Lehner allowed one goal on 20 shots in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Chicago Blackhawks.

Lehner was bailed out by his goal post on a couple of occasions early in the second period, but he wasn't really tested by Chicago in this game. The biggest issue he had was with his left skate, as the blade fell off twice during the evening. Lehner has played in six games with Golden Knights since February and he's won each of those outings. Sitting Marc-Andre Fleury couldn't have been easy for Vegas, but Lehner is more than capable of performing at a high level on a nightly basis. Game 2 of this series will be played on Thursday.

D. Kampf - F

CHI

David Kampf scored a shorthanded goal in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Vegas Golden Knights.

The Blackhawks found themselves down 2-0 in the second period and they ended up being shorthanded because of a failed challenge on Vegas' second goal. Instead of crumbling, Chicago managed to get a goal back thanks to a great individual effort from Brandon Saad, who set up Kampf's goal. That was Kampf's first career Stanley Cup Playoff goal. Unfortunately for Chicago, that was the only goal they could muster in this game. The Blackhawks will look to even up this series in Game 2 on Thursday.

R. Smith - F

VGK

Reilly Smith scored two goals and an assist in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Chicago Blackhawks in Game 1.

Smith scored both of his goals in the third period to give his team 3-1 and 4-1 leads at the time. On the first one, he entered the Chicago zone on the right side and fired a wrister off Corey Crawford's blocker and in. On the second goal, he received a great saucer pass from Jonathan Marchessault before beating Crawford with a backhander on a breakaway. He also picked up an assist on Shea Theodore's first-period tally. The 29-year-old has always elevated his game in the playoffs, as he's picked up 46 points in 49 career postseason games. He has two goals and five points in four games since play resumed.

Corey Crawford will get the start in Game 1 against Vegas on Tuesday night.

If the Blackhawks want to upset the Golden Knights, they'll need Crawford to play as well as he did in the last round against Edmonton. The 35-year-old has a 3-1 record with a 3.75 goals-against-average and a .891 save percentage.

Y. Gourde - F

TB

Yanni Gourde found the back of the net in Tuesday's 3-2 quintuple overtime victory over the Columbus Blue Jackets.

Gourde tied the game at two just 26 seconds into the third period. No one could've predicted that the next goal would come five periods later when Brayden Point would put an end to to the fourth longest game in NHL history. This game went so long that it forced the NHL to postpone tonight's game between the Bruins and Hurricanes which was supposed to start in Toronto at 8 p.m. ET. Gourde now has one goal and one assist in four games this postseason. Game 2 of this series will be played on Thursday afternoon at 3 p.m. ET.

S. Jones - D

CBJ

Seth Jones played an NHL record 65:06 in Tuesday's 3-2 quintuple overtime loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning.

After the game, Blue Jackets coach John Tortorella called Jones "a horse" for his ability to log so much ice time in Game 1. Former Stars defenseman Sergei Zubov previously owned the ice-time record (64:05). Jones finished the night with an assist on Pierre-Luc Dubois' power play goal in the first period, two penalty minutes, six shots on goal and three hits. Unfortunately for Jones and his team, they dropped Game 1 when Lightning forward Brayden Point scored over 150 minutes into this one. Game 2 will be played on Thursday afternoon.

J. Korpisalo - G

Joonas Korpisalo stopped an NHL record 85 shots in Tuesday's 3-2 quintuple overtime loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning.

Korpisalo faced 41 shots in regulation and the Lightning fired 47 more shots on him during the five overtime periods that were played in this game. As we mentioned above, Korpisalo set a new NHL record for saves tonight, as he passed Kelly Hrudey's mark of 73, which was set back in April of 1987. Unfortunately for Korpisalo, Brayden Point ended this game over six hours after it started. This ended up being the fourth longest game in NHL history at 150:27. Game 2 of this series will be played on Thursday afternoon.
