Darling stopped 32 of 34 shots in Thursday's 3-2 edging of the Bruins. Staked to a 3-0 lead a little over midway through the game, Darling ended up giving back a couple goals, but held on tight to end up with his fourth conseucutive victory and first-star honors. He should continue to be an excellent option in net while Corey Crawford (foot) remains out -- Crawford's only just started skating and is reportedly a long shot for this weekend, so Darling could make another couple starts before the Blackhawks are faced with the decision of whether to send him or Antti Raanta back to the AHL.
