The Carolina Hurricanes placed veteran goalie Scott Darling on waivers Thursday, general manager Don Waddell confirmed, according to Chip Alexander of the Raleigh News and Observer.

Darling is in the second season of a four-year, $16.6-million deal he signed in May 2017. A no-trade clause in his contract allows him to list 15 teams to which he'd accept being moved.

After a strong showing in his previous stint with the Chicago Blackhawks, the Hurricanes hoped Darling could take their top job, but he's struggled.

Darling finished last season with 13 wins and an .888 save rate across 43 games. So far this season, the 29-year-old owns a 2-4-1 record with a .892 save percentage and a 3.14 goals-against average.
