By sarahtr

Blackhawks goalie Corey Crawford told reporters on Wednesday the “off-ice” injury to his left foot that will keep him out two to three weeks happened at a concert.

Instantly, social media wondered in unison—which concert? A source tells ESPN, Crawford went to see Rise Against at the House of Blues on Monday.

The Twitter reviews of Crawford’s concert appearance:

The most unfortunate part of the Corey Crawford injury is that someone went to a Rise Against show in 2014.

Corey Crawford out 3 weeks after injuring foot at Rise Against concert? Embarrassing. At least it wasn't Coldplay. No coming back from that.
