Scott Darling remains the apple of Joel Quenneville's eye.

The Chicago Blackhawks head coach will hand the crease to Darling once again for Saturday's Game 6 against the Nashville Predators.

Th decision comes on the heels of a 5-2 loss in Game 5 in which Darling allowed four goals on 28 shots. Still, Quenneville decided to stick with him in lieu of turning back to Corey Crawford. 

Darling will now have the opportunity to backstop his team to the second round.

In four playoff appearances, Darling has three wins and a save percentage of .950.
