Blue Heaven Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 :tweet: @NHLBlackhawks The #Blackhawks have acquired a third-round pick in the 2017 #NHLDraft from the Hurricanes in exchange for goaltender Scott Darling.
Phil Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 Canes just got a potential starter for a great price. Darling is so much better than Lack or Ward.
SaveByRichter35 Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 Just one third rounder? Wow, good for the Canes.
Blue Heaven Posted April 29, 2017 Author Posted April 29, 2017 That seems so cheap. Damn. Probably b/c they have cap issues plus possibility of losing him for nothing at the expansion draft?
Phil Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 It's cheap because he's a UFA this summer. This is basically a trade for a negotiating window. Sent from my iPhone using Blueshirts Brotherhood mobile app powered by Tapatalk

phillyb Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 Wonder if they give him a 2x1.5 or if they try and lock him up long term as their starter. Both Lack and Ward are locked up for next season at 2.75 and 3.3, respectively. I guess they'll try and get rid of one of them and give Darling the nod.
Phil Posted May 6, 2017 Posted May 6, 2017 :tweet: @reporterchris: Scott Darling signs a $16.6M, four-year deal with #hurricanes. They acquired his rights from CHI last week. -- $4.15M AAV. Sent from my iPhone using Blueshirts Brotherhood mobile app powered by Tapatalk
Phil Posted May 6, 2017 Posted May 6, 2017 Yup. Another Talbot-like situation. They're banking on his ability to take that next step. Sent from my iPhone using Blueshirts Brotherhood mobile app powered by Tapatalk
phillyb Posted May 7, 2017 Posted May 7, 2017 He's looked great in the CHI games I've watched this season. Really rooting for him...idk why but I like Darling a lot.
NYR2711 Posted May 7, 2017 Posted May 7, 2017 He's looked great in the CHI games I've watched this season. Really rooting for him...idk why but I like Darling a lot. Same here. Ever since the Epix show, I have really liked him. Im honestly shocked the Blackhawks gave up on him and kept Crawford.
