Crevier was a late addition to Chicago's lineup against the Stars after Nikita Zaitsev (undisclosed) was announced as a late scratch. Crevier has no goals and three assists in 10 games this season.
Alex Vlasic will enter the lineup in favour of Crevier, who will exit the lineup for the first time since December 5th. While playing nine consecutive games for the Blackhawks, Crevier recorded three points (0G / 3A) and a -5 plus/minus.
Crevier was a healthy scratch for the Blackhawks' previous game but will draw back into the lineup Thursday vs. Anaheim as he replaces Jarred Tinordi (concussion). The 22-year-old towering defence man (6'8") will make only his second career NHL appearance Thursday and is expected to be on Chicago's third pairing alongside Nikita Zaitsev.
Crevier played 15:59 in his NHL debut on Sunday and was held without a point, but had one shot on goal, one block, and two hits. Crevier was recalled last week from the Rockford IceHogs of the AHL, where he has five points (0G / 5A) in 16 games.
