INJURIES:

FIRSTS:

• Leland made his National Hockey League debut at the BankAtlantic Center in Sunrise, Florida, as his Calgary Flames squared off against the host Florida Panthers. Irving had a solid performance, stopping 39 of 41 shots in the contest and two of four in the shootout, but was thwarted by Dmitry Kulikov in a 3-2 defeat. Called up to Calgary for the first time on December 5, Irving looked shaky in the first period and had problems controlling rebounds early. But he settled down and made his share of nice saves, in particular against center Tomas Kopecky. "He definitely showed that he's ready to play in this League," teammate Olli Jokinen said. "He gave us confidence the way he played. We had two chances in the shootout to get the win for him. He deserved the two points. He played great, very calm, and it's a good feeling to play in front of him." Irving, who has played 166 games in the AHL during the past three seasons, said the wait for his first NHL game was worth it. "It was everything I thought it would be and more," Irving said. "Exciting atmosphere. To step on the ice with that caliber of players, a lot of talent out there, I enjoyed the challenge."
