Tough go at it for Irving. He just isn't ready.
He will get a couple more starts at least in these next 2 weeks however. Flames aren't willing to give up on him yet, seeing as what appears to be some big decisions in net coming up this off-season. Unless he shows more, doubtful the Flames will re-sign him, and try their luck with Kipper/Ramo or even during a rebuild - Ramo/Brossoit/Taylor/Stop-gap (who really cares too much if they are in a rebuild?).
I was hoping Irving would show a lot, but he is just too jittery. Very quick and athletic goalie though.
