Darling will start Sunday's game against the Blues after Corey Crawford was scratched due to illness, Mark Lazerus of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Darling has performed well in each of his last two starts, allowing a combined two goals and winning both outings. He will look to continue that roll in a surprise start Sunday and will receive backing by the league's top-scoring group (4.44 goals per game) in February.
