<div>The Chicago Blackhawks have a new coach for the men who will be manning the crease during the 2013-14 season.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The Hawks announced Monday that they had hired Steve Weeks as the team’s goaltending coach, replacing Stephane Waite, who left for the Montreal Canadiens after helping develop Corey Crawford into a Stanley Cup-winning netminder.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>“We are thrilled with the addition of Steve Weeks to our organization,� Blackhawks general manager Stan Bowman said in a statement. “He has over two decades of professional hockey experience and is a well-respected coach both on and off the ice.�</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The 55-year-old Weeks most recently served as an assistant coach and goaltending specialist with the Atlanta Thrashers for nine seasons (2001-10) and prior to that was goalie coach and scout for the Carolina Hurricanes.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>“It’s an honor to join a championship caliber organization like the Chicago Blackhawks,� Weeks said. “I look forward to working with Corey (Crawford) and Nikolai (Khabibulin) and helping contribute to the continued success of this franchise.�</div>
<div>Weeks played 13 seasons in the NHL from 1980 to 1993, appearing in 290 career games with the New York Rangers, Hartford Whalers, New York Islanders, Los Angeles Kings and Ottawa Senators.</div>
