"I really like what Leland has done," Calgary general manager Jay Feaster said of Irving, who is 1-1-1 with a 2.62 GAA in four games this season.
On Monday, the Flames claimed goaltender Joey MacDonald off waivers from the Detroit Red Wings. He went 8-5-1 in 14 games last season for Detroit with a 2.16 GAA and a .912 save percentage.
