Playing Career
Darragh played his entire professional career with the Ottawa Senators. He was a big part of their success, winning four Stanley Cups; in 1911, 1920, 1921 and 1923. In the 1921 Final against Vancouver, he scored both goals in a 2–1 deciding game victory.
He retired after that Cup win, but returned after one season to play for the Cup-winning team of 1922–23, the third in four seasons, all with Darragh in the lineup.
He retired after the 1923–24 season and died a few months later due to peritonitis, which was the result of a ruptured appendix.

Famous quotes containing the words playing and/or career:
“The best hand always believes in playing by the rules.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“He was at a starting point which makes many a man’s career a fine subject for betting, if there were any gentlemen given to that amusement who could appreciate the complicated probabilities of an arduous purpose, with all the possible thwartings and furtherings of circumstance, all the niceties of inward balance, by which a man swings and makes his point or else is carried headlong.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
