Corey Crawford owned Thomas Vanek in more ways than one on Sunday.
The Chicago Blackhawks goaltender stopped the Minnesota Wild forward from scoring the game's first goal and followed it up by punching his opponent right in the kisser.

Upon closer inspection, the Wild forward was actually shoved into the netminder by Duncan Keith.
Vanek received a penalty for goaltender interference on the play.
