Darren McCarty on Waivers… Again

Veteran defenceman, Darren McCarty, have been placed on waivers by the Detroit Red Wings. This is the second time (or more?) this has happened – he was first placed on waivers back in July, 2005. He’s had a long on-again-off-again relationship with the Wings with whom he has played 11 seasons and won the Stanley Cup four times.
The 36-year-old has had a rough time these past few years. I got to know him as a player when he played for the Calgary Flames (2005-2007) but then things went wrong there too – he kind of disappeared and it was revealed he was having some gambling and personal problems. I was happy when I found out that Detroit was taking him back but I guess it’s just not working out.
I hope everything works out for him…
