Scott Darling isn’t the only member of the Chicago Blackhawks who will be asked to step up with key players out of the lineup.
The Blackhawks have already ruled out Brent Seabrook and Jonathan Toews for Friday’s game against the New York Rangers, as CSN Chicago notes.
This will mark the eighth consecutive game Toews is missing, although the bright side is that Joel Quenneville didn’t dismiss the possibility of Chicago’s captain playing on Sunday.
Seabrook is considered day-to-day after being shaken up by this awkward spill from Wednesday:
A few days ago, Patrick Kane called upon others to step up with Toews out. That message can now apply to Chicago’s defensemen with Seabrook banged up.
