It was a historical playoff win for Corey Crawford and the Chicago Blackhawks on Friday night. And we're not talking about instant replay.

Crawford made 29 saves, exceeding Tony Esposito on the franchise's all-time wins list, and, with a little help from video review, helped his team to a controversial split through two road games in their first-round series with the St. Louis Blues.

The two-time Stanley Cup champion holds a career 46-41 playoff record with five shutouts.
