Leland Irving: Signs overseas
Irving agreed to terms on a contract with HC Bolzano of the Erste Bank Eishockey Liga (Austria) on Friday.
Taken with the 26th overall pick in the 2006 NHL Draft, Irving failed to live up to billing and made a mere 13 NHL appearances for the Flames, in which he posted a 3-4-4 record and 3.25 GAA. The netminder has bounced between the AHL and Europe (including a stint in the KHL), so it may not be the last we've seen of the 30-year-old.

Penguins' Leland Irving: Sent to Baby Pens
The Penguins sent Irving to AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Monday, DK Pittsburgh Sports reports.
Irving's faint chances of serving as Marc-Andre Fleury's backup to open the season took a hit when prospect Tristan Jarry rolled off a pair of back-to-back preseason shutouts. Irving will look to rebuild his value at the AHL level after spending 2014-15 in the KHL.

Penguins' Leland Irving: Signs PTO with Stanley Cup champs
The Penguins signed Irving to a professional tryout contract Thursday, Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
Irving will likely serve as depth in Pittsburgh at least until Marc-Andre Fleury or Matt Murray is traded or injured. The goalie went 12-22-6 with a 2.68 GAA and .913 save percentage for AHL Iowa in 2015-16. Irving, 28, last played in the NHL in 2012-13 with Calgary and more recently toiled in the KHL.
