Chicago Blackhawks goalkeeper Corey Crawford is expected to be out for two or three weeks with a foot injury. How did he suffer a foot injury while wearing skates and tending net?
He didn’t.
On Wednesday, Crawford revealed that he injured his left foot while leaving a concert earlier this week.
“I was at a concert the other day and was on the way out and missed a step and I didn’t think it was that bad,” he said, per Chris Kuc of The Chicago Tribune. “I woke up the next day and it was worse than I thought.
“I’m pretty embarrassed about it, frustrated. Things were going really well. Right now I’m just thinking about trying to get back as quickly as possible and make sure I’m right back where I was (where) I left off.”
Crawford would not say whether alcohol was involved or not.
Hey, it happens.
As Deadspin noted, Twitter rumors seem to indicate that Crawford was at the Rise Against and Royal Blood show on Monday night. I couldn’t even tell you if Rise Against and Royal Blood is one band or two separate ones, and I don’t care enough to Google it. I already know I don’t like them.
