Darling allowed two goals on 21 shots in the Hurricanes loss in Winnipeg last Saturday. With Cam Ward going on Tuesday, the Hurricanes will come back to Darling tonight in Calgary. The new No.1 goalie of the Hurricanes has won one of three starts while posting a 2.58 GAA and .893 SV% so far. Calgary comes in averaging 2.83 goals for per game so far.

Darling allowed four goals on 27 shots in a winning effort vs. Minnesota in his Hurricanes debut. Darling chalked up the ‘W’ in his first game with Carolina but it was not the greatest outing for the 28-year-old netminder. In his second start, Darling will see a Blue Jackets team that has started 1-1-0 with 3.00 goals per game early on.

After two and a half seasons as the Blackhawks’ backup, Darling was dealt to the Hurricanes this summer where he is expected to take over as their No.1 goalie. Last season, the 28-year-old netminder was 18-5-5 with a 2.38 GAA and .924 SV% and now he’ll play behind one of the best young bluelines in the NHL. His first start will likely come against a Wild team that was second in the NHL in scoring last season (3.21 GF/PG).

Darling was set to become an unrestricted free agent on July 1, so the Hurricanes acquired his rights and promptly signed him to a four-year deal worth $16.6 million ($4.15M AAV) . The 28-year-old netminder has been one of the best backups in the NHL over his three-year career—posting a 2.37 GAA, .923 SV% and four shutouts in 64 starts and 11 relief appearances.

Darling allowed three goals on six shots after replacing Corey Crawford in Saturday’s loss to the Panthers. It was ugly night for both Blackhawks’ netminders, but they’ll turn to Darling tonight in Tampa Bay. Darling is 3-0-1 with a 2.53 GAA and .916 SV% in three starts and two relief appearances in March.

Darling allowed one goal on 37 shots in the Blackhawks’ win over the Penguins on March 1st. He missed time with a hand injury, but will return to the crease tonight in Ottawa. Darling is on a personal four-game winning streak with a 1.26 GAA and .960 SV%.

Darling will return much quicker than originally expected. His original timetable was three weeks, but the netminder only missed two weeks and will return as Corey Crawford’s backup in Montreal on Tuesday.

This is a tough break for the Blackhawks, who have a back-to-back this weekend. Darling was riding a four-game winning streak and this will likely force Corey Crawford to start both games of the back-to-back.

Darling has started the last two games, but Corey Crawford will get the nod tonight. Darling was set to dress as the backup, but Jeff Glass has been recalled from Rockford (AHL) to do that because Darling is battling an upper-body injury.
