Darling looked good in goal for the Blackhawks in saving 19 shots on goal and collecting a 5-0 shutout against the Oilers on Sunday in an exhibition game, the Chicago Tribune reports. Darling was helped on a couple of shots that hit the post, but he was still impressive. It still was the Oilers and Darling will have to show a lot more if he wants to replace Antti Raanta as the back-up goalie to Corey Crawford. Veteran goalie Michael Leighton is expected to start at Rockford of the AHL, but Darling's play might give him more starts at Rockford.
