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:
“While you’re playing cards with a regular guy or having a bite to eat with him, he seems a peaceable, good-humoured and not entirely dense person. But just begin a conversation with him about something inedible, politics or science, for instance, and he ends up in a deadend or starts in on such an obtuse and base philosophy that you can only wave your hand and leave.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
“The 19-year-old Diana ... decided to make her career that of wife. Today that can be a very, very iffy line of work.... And what sometimes happens to the women who pursue it is the best argument imaginable for teaching girls that they should always be able to take care of themselves.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
