Oilers acquire G Connor Ingram from Mammoth

The Edmonton Oilers acquired goaltender Connor Ingram from the Utah Mammoth on Wednesday in exchange for future considerations.

Per the Oilers, the Mammoth will retain $800,000 of Ingram's $1.95 million cap hit. He is in the last season of a three-year, $5.85 million contract and can become an unrestricted free agent after the upcoming campaign.

Ingram, 28, was assigned to Bakersfield of the American Hockey League on Wednesday.

He recorded a 9-8-4 record with a 3.27 goals-against average and .882 save percentage in 22 games (all starts) last season with Utah before entering the NHL/NHLPA Player Assistance Program on March 9. He was cleared from the program on Aug. 20.

Last month, the Mammoth announced Ingram would not participate in training camp and that they were attempting to trade him. He was placed on waivers Sept. 25 and went unclaimed.

"We would like to thank Connor for everything he has done for the organization," Mammoth general manager Bill Armstrong said. "He is a class act, great teammate, and we wish him nothing but the best."

Ingram is 39-44-15 with seven shutouts, a 3.14 GAA and a .902 save percentage in 102 career games (99 starts) with the Nashville Predators, Arizona Coyotes and Utah.

A third-round draft pick by the Tampa Bay Lightning in 2016, he never played for the franchise. Ingram won the NHL's Masterton Trophy in 2023-24. The trophy recognizes the player who best exemplifies the qualities of perseverance, sportsmanship and dedication to hockey.
