EDGE Analysis

Darling has played decently in limited starts this season backing up Corey Crawford, as evidenced by his .913 save percentage and 2.58 GAA through seven games. The Blackhawks have earned at least one point in each of Darling's last three starts. The 26-year-old netminder will face a Predators team on Thursday who have hit a bit of a rough patch, losing eight of their last 11 games.
