Hockey Club's Connor Ingram: Still out indefinitely
Rotowire
Ingram (upper body) remains out indefinitely, Belle Fraser of The Salt Lake Tribune reports Monday.
Ingram resumed skating last weekend, but he will take a step back. He wasn't improving enough to make being on the ice worth it for his recovery. The 27-year-old netminder has already missed the last 12 games, and it's unclear when he will be ready to return. Karel Vejmelka has been occupying the No. 1 goalie role for Utah during Ingram's absence.

Hockey Club's Connor Ingram: Not close to return
Rotowire
Ingram (upper body) isn't close to returning to the lineup, according to Cole Bagley of KSL Sports on Monday.
Ingram will miss his seventh straight game when Utah hosts Dallas on Monday. He has a 6-4-3 record with a 3.61 GAA and an .871 save percentage through 13 appearances this season. Karel Vejmelka and Jaxson Stauber have performed well during Ingram's absence. Vejmelka and Ingram could compete for starts once the latter is ready to return.

Hockey Club's Connor Ingram: Unlikely to return for road trip
Rotowire
Head coach Andre Tourigny said Thursday that he doesn't expect Ingram (upper body) to join the team during Utah's upcoming four-game road trip, Cole Bagley of KSL Sports reports.
Ingram was placed on injured reserve Wednesday, so he had already been ruled out through Sunday's game in Toronto. However, he'll likely be sidelined for at least four games, so the earliest that he could be in the mix to return would be at home against the Oilers on Nov. 29. Karel Vejmelka will serve as the starting goaltender for Thursday's road matchup against Boston and will likely operate as the No. 1 netminder in Ingram's absence, while Jaxson Stauber will be available as a backup.

Hockey Club's Connor Ingram: Gets hook Monday
Rotowire
Ingram stopped nine of 13 shots before being pulled in the second period during Monday's 6-2 loss to the Capitals.
Ingram was returning to the Utah crease after two games and had a woeful performance. He was lifted in the second period in place of Karel Vejmelka, who ended up allowing two more goals in the final frame. Ingram has posted a save percentage below .890 in each of his last four outings, so he's clearly trending in the wrong direction. Over that span, Ingram has gone 1-2-1 with a 3.80 GAA and an .843 save percentage after stopping just 70 of 83 shots.

Hockey Club's Connor Ingram: Gets no help in loss
Rotowire
Ingram stopped 17 of 20 shots in Saturday's 4-0 loss to the Predators. The fourth goal was an empty-netter.
Utah's defense kept his workload light, but two goals from Filip Forsberg and one more from Jonathan Marchessault got past Ingram. Marchessault also had an empty-netter. Ingram is 2-2-2 with 18 goals allowed over his last six games, so it can be tough to trust him on a game-to-game basis. He's now at 6-3-3 with a 3.40 GAA and an .879 save percentage through 12 outings. Utah is back in action with a tough home matchup Wednesday versus the Hurricanes.

Hockey Club's Connor Ingram: Makes 30 saves in win
Rotowire
Ingram stopped 30 of 31 shots in Wednesday's 5-1 win over the Flames.
Ingram put in a strong effort to end his personal three-game losing streak as well as Utah's four-game skid. The 27-year-old netminder improved to 5-2-2 with a 3.53 GAA and an .880 save percentage through nine outings this season. Utah's defensive injuries could continue to make Ingram's job tougher, but he represents the team's best option in goal and should continue to start a majority of the games.

Rotowire
Ingram is expected to start at home against Calgary on Wednesday, per Cole Bagley of KSL Sports.
Ingram has a 4-2-2 record, 3.88 GAA and .868 save percentage across eight appearances in 2024-25. He opened the season with a three-game winning streak, but that was largely thanks to Utah's offensive contributions -- he surrendered 11 goals on 87 shots (.874 save percentage) over that stretch. Over his past three outings, Ingram has a record of 0-2-1 while stopping just 65 of 77 shots (.844 save percentage). Calgary is tied for 17th offensively with 3.11 goals per game.

Hockey Club's Connor Ingram: Can't recapture magic of last year
Rotowire
Ingram made 20 saves in a 3-2 loss to the Kings on Saturday.

Since Opening Night, he has allowed four or more goals four times in six outings. Despite a 4-2-1 record, Ingram sports a 3.71 GAA and an .862 save percentage.

Hockey Club's Connor Ingram: Pulled after first period
Rotowire
Ingram stopped five of nine shots in Tuesday's 4-0 loss to the Senators.
Ingram was pulled after a nightmarish first period, and Karel Vejmelka stopped all 14 shots he faced over the final two frames. This was the fourth time in six appearances Ingram has allowed at least four goals, though Utah's offense has helped him start the season 4-1-1. The 27-year-old still appears to be the No. 1 goalie, but if his struggles continue, Ingram could lose work to Vejmelka. Utah's next game is Thursday at home versus Colorado.

Hockey Club's Connor Ingram: Consecutive wins to start season
Rotowire
Ingram allowed four goals on 25 shots in Thursday's 5-4 overtime win against the Islanders.
Ingram was beaten twice at even strength Thursday -- the Islanders' other two goals came on special teams -- one on the power play and one while shorthanded. The 27-year-old could be in store for a career year given the offensive talent that Utah possesses. Ingram went 23-21-3 with a .907 save percentage and a 2.91 GAA in 50 regular-season appearances last season. The Saskatchewan native could draw the start again versus the Rangers on Saturday.

Ingram stopped 19 of 20 shots versus the Sharks in his previous outing, though he'll get a tougher assignment Saturday. This will be Ingram's third preseason start, and if he performs well, it wouldn't be surprising to see him get the nod in Tuesday's season opener versus the Blackhawks.

Ingram was dialed in, though he gave up a goal to defenseman Matt Benning in the second period. With three goals allowed on 40 shots over five periods of play, Ingram is looking regular-season ready at this point. It's unclear if he'll need one more preseason tune-up before Opening Night versus the Blackhawks next Tuesday.
