Scott Darling is ready to go.
The Carolina Hurricanes summoned their No. 1 netminder from the AHL's Charlotte Checkers on Thursday, the club announced.
Darling stopped 25 of 26 shots in a 3-1 victory over the Utica Comets on Wednesday. He was activated off injured reserve and assigned to Charlotte on a conditioning stint earlier this week.
Darling hurt his hamstring in Carolina's final preseason contest against the Nashville Predators on Sept. 30. Hurricanes head coach Rod Brind'Amour initially expected his goaltender to miss two weeks.
