IPv6Freely 2092 Report post Posted April 29, 2017 Off-season transactions starting early. http://www.tsn.ca/hurricanes-acquire-rights-to-darling-from-blackhawks-1.738030 I guess this means Crawford will be sticking around, and that Lack isn't the answer in Carolina when Ward is done. Darling and Lack on the same team will make for one of the best looking goalie gear duos in the league, though! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fastmiele 59 Report post Posted April 30, 2017 Unless there is some verbal agreement between Darling and Carolina, I think its a bit expensive to give up a 3rd round pick for exclusive negotiation rights for unrestricted player on July 1. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chippa13 1844 Report post Posted June 16, 2017 I think it may be a case of the Hurricanes protecting themselves on the backup goalie front as it pertains to the expansion draft. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
