Darren McCarty's Return Set For Tonight
28th March, 2008 - 11:29 am
The Detroit News - Darren McCarthy will suit up for the Red Wings for the first time since the 2004 season on Friday night, according to the Detroit News.

"I'm a firm believer you can do whatever you want as long as your priorities are in order and willing to do what it takes," said McCarty, who has overcome a litany of personal problems. "This time around, it's lot different, though. I'm a lot different person, just stronger in a lot of areas, and a pretty tight-knit group around me. The gratitude and appreciation stand (out)."

"It's not the end, either. Just another step. Getting back on the ice, once I get in the lineup, I want to stay in the lineup and be part of this team. It's such a great opportunity, a chance to win another Stanley Cup," he added.

He hasn't played in an NHL game in almost a full year, having missed a majority of last season with the Flames because of groin/abdominal surgery. [READ]
