Darling could be in goal for the Blackhawks on Sunday against Ottawa that would be the second half of a back-to-back scenario, Hawks' coach Joel Quenneville told CSN Chicago. In the past Quenneville has split the goalie starts in a back-to-back scenario so Darling could see his first NHL regular season contest on Sunday. He has really shot up the Blackhawks depth chart after being signed as a free agent in the offseason and looking impressive in the preseason. He was in goal for Milwaukee of the AHL last season and the Chicago-area native has a chance to start his first regular season NHL game in front of his family on Sunday. He was 2-0 with Rockford of the AHL this season with a 1.44 goals against average and .948 save percentage.
