Crawford:
“He settled down,” Quenneville said, when asked how much Crawford has improved since his shaky start to the postseason. “He came back in Game 6 against Nashville, the game’s on the line, and he did what he had to do to get the win. He got some confidence off that, and he’s been rock-solid in this series. We’re very happy with how he’s handled things.”
Crawford deflected much of the praise Tuesday to his teammates, who stood with him when the Wild buzzed the loudest. He said they allowed him to see every shot, swept away loads of rebounds and limited the Wild’s close-range chances.
“[Crawford] shut the door,” said Patrick Kane, who scored the game’s only goal. “He’s played huge, especially down the stretch here.”
