Enough glorifying Irving..
Sure he earned the next start, but c'mon.
Great, he's playing marginally better below average hockey than a struggling + out of sync Kiprusoff.
Fact is, he still needs to be sharper, and start posting save %s above .900
The Flames will need to set the tone early and turn it into a run and gun game again. If they get into a duel of defensive/tight checking prowess with the Blues, whom kept the wings to 16 shots on net, we are likely to be doomed. Especially with Irving playing as unpredictable and average as he is.
