Corey Crawford made 28 saves and Andrew Shaw scored the only goal as the host Chicago Blackhawks stretched their NHL-record, season-opening point streak to 18 games with a 1-0 victory over the Columbus Blue Jackets on Sunday night.
Crawford earned his seventh NHL shutout and second this season in his first start since Feb. 12. He outdueled Columbus' Steve Mason, who stopped 26 shots.
Shaw provided all the offense in the second period for the Blackhawks (15-0-3), who haven't lost in regulation time this season and have earned 33 of a 36 possible points.
How Far can they go this year?
