What It Means:

Darling turned in a 30-save shutout against the Boston Bruins last Friday, only his third start this month. For the season, he owns a 12-4-2 record with a .928 save percentage, 2.21 goals-against average and a pair of shutouts.

numberFire's models rank Darling as the fifth-best fantasy goalie on Thursday out of the 26 starters playing. We project him for 2.0 goals allowed, 24.5 saves made and a 67.0 percent chance of earning the win.
