Penguins add Leland Irving on a PTO
The Pittsburgh Penguins will have 2 players in training camp (opens tomorrow!!) on PTOs.
Just two PTOs for the Penguins in camp. Both goalies. Doug Carr and Leland Irving.
— Jason Mackey (@JMackeyPG) September 22, 2016 That both are goalies isn't too much of a surprise, the organization didn't sign anyone over the summer and lost Jeff Zatkoff (who returned to the Los Angeles Kings), so they need another body.
Irving in particular could be one to watch.
Now at 28 years old, the former 2006 first round pick hasn't quite lived up to that billing, but he does have some NHL experience and has been pretty decent over the years in the AHL.
