Leland Irving who's been a stand-out in the Calgary Flames farm system with the Abbotsford Heat has paid his dues and with Henrik Karlsson going down with a sprained MCL will be backing up Miikka Kiprusoff tomorrow night when Calgary hosts Carolina and for the distant future.
It's a great step for Irving who was the first overall Pick in 2006 for the Flames, the former Everett Silvertip was the Heat's MVP last season sporting a 30-24-0-2 record while recording a league best 8 shutouts, he already has 3 this season with a 15-7-0 record with the Heat and will join teammates T.J Brodie and Joe Piskula on the main roster.
Irving has been bombarded by calls from larger media, family and friends but took sometime to talk to XM105 today and obviously he's excited.
