Connor Ingram News

Ingram will start for the third time in the last four games for the Coyotes on Tuesday night in Calgary. Ingram is coming off a sensational 38-save shutout on Saturday in a 6-0 victory over the Minnesota Wild. His .915 SV% over his last eight appearances (4-2-0) would typically be a serviceable total but is indicative of his inconsistent play lately, given that he has three shutouts over that span. The Coyotes are +146 road underdogs against the Flames, who defeated them 6-2 less than a week ago, a game in which Ingram saved 16 of 18 shots (.889 SV%) after entering in relief.

Ingram will return to the crease on Saturday after entering Thursday's game, a 6-2 loss to the Calgary Flames, in relief of Karel Vejmelka. Ingram has fallen back to earth after his spectacular run at the beginning of December but is still sporting a respectable .909 SV% in his last four outings (2-1-0). Ingram will be facing off against a Minnesota Wild club playing the back end of a back-to-back and has only scored 12 total goals in their last seven games heading into Friday.

Arizona will continue to rotate their goalies as Connor Ingram retakes the crease Tuesday vs. Boston after backing up Karel Vejmelka last game. The 26-year-old has been the surprising standout of the two Coyotes' net-minders in his third NHL season, with a 13-8-0 record, 2.61 GAA, .915 SV% and a league leading four shutouts. He draws the Boston Bruins at home in the desert Tuesday, who are coming off a tough 4-3 shootout loss to Colorado Monday, but are still enjoying a relatively strong offensive season ranking 10th in the NHL in goals per game (3.37).

Ingram will return to the crease for the Coyotes on Thursday as their equal distribution goalie rotation is back in full effect. In his last outing, Ingram saved all 28 shots he faced for a 2-0 shutout victory over the Anaheim Ducks, his second shutout in four outings. Ingram and the Coyotes will be facing a tougher foe on Thursday when they welcome the New York Islanders, who have points in five of their last seven games (3-2-2). In his last 12 games (7-4-0), Ingram has four shutouts and a dazzling .928 SV%.

Karel Vejmelka was between the pipes for the Coyotes on Wednesday in their 5-4 overtime win over the Avalanche, but the team will shift back to their early-season strategy of alternating starts and turn to Ingram on Friday against the Anaheim Ducks. Ingram has lost the magic he had in late November, dropping four of his last five games (1-4-0), posting a subpar .873 SV%. That said, Ingram and the Coyotes will have a favourable matchup against a Ducks team that ranks fourth worst in the league offensively (2.65 GF / GP) despite defeating the Vegas Golden Knights 5-2 in their last game.

After two poor outings, Ingram has sported consecutive strong starts and will return to the crease on Tuesday against the Ottawa Senators. In his last two games (1-1-0), Ingram has saved 60 of 63 shots (.952 SV%), including his league-leading third shutout of this season. The Coyotes have a favourable matchup on Tuesday against a Senators team searching for their first win in four games and is playing their first game after firing head coach D.J. Smith.

Ingram has started eight of the last nine games for the Coyotes and will start again on Friday against the San Jose Sharks. The Coyotes have lost four straight but are sizeable -184 home favourites against a Sharks team that has won three of their last four games (3-1-0). After an otherworldly stretch in late November, Ingram has allowed 12 goals on 96 shots (.878 SV%) during his current three-game skid. That said, he was terrific in a losing effort on Tuesday, saving 40 of 43 shots (.930 SV%) in a 4-2 loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins.

Ingram served as the backup yesterday for the first time in over two weeks and will return to the starter's crease on Tuesday against the Pittsburgh Penguins. After an incredible five-game stretch (5-0-0) that included two shutouts and a marvellous .968 SV%, Ingram has dropped two straight contests, allowing nine goals on 55 shots (.836 SV%). Ingram has been resilient all season and will look to rebound despite the Coyotes being +173 road underdogs against a Penguins team that has struggled to score goals, losing four straight contests (0-2-2).

Ingram has taken over the Coyotes net, rightfully so, and will start his sixth straight game. Ingram has been the backbone for the Coyotes during their five-game winning streak, in which he has two shutouts, and they have outscored the opposition 19-5. Ingram has been amongst the league's best and most consistent netminders this season, boasting a 2.23 GAA and .930 SV% through 15 games (11-3-0). The Coyotes are slight -102 home underdogs but mustn't be overlooked as they enter their matchup against the Philadelphia Flyers playing their most complete hockey this season.

After evenly alternating starts with Karel Vejmelka for the first six weeks of the season, Ingram has settled in as the undisputed favourite between the pipes for the Coyotes, deservedly starting for the fifth straight game on Monday against the Washington Capitals. Ingram has been sensational this season, boasting a 2.40 GAA and .925 SV% in 14 games (10-3-0), and seems to be getting stronger as the season progresses, allowing only five goals in his last four games (4-0-0), posting a gaudy .961 SV%. Ingram looks poised for another strong performance on Monday as the Coyotes are -126 home favourites against a Capitals team that has scored more than two goals only once in their last five games (2-3-0).

Deservedly so, Ingram will start for the third consecutive game after rotating starts evenly with Karel Vejmelka for the first six weeks of the season. Ingram has been sensational this season, responsible for eight of the Coyotes' 10 wins, despite only playing in 12 games himself, boasting a stellar 2.49 GAA and .924 SV%. Ingram has saved 64 of the last 65 shots he has faced (.985 SV%) during a two-game winning streak. Even so, the Coyotes are +164 home underdogs against the red-hot Colorado Avalanche, who have won four straight games, outscoring their opposition 15-6.

For the first time this season, the Coyotes will stray away from their goalie rotation as Ingram will start consecutive games for the first time. This news isn't all that shocking given his heroic performance in his most recent outing where he saved all 34 shots he faced in a 2-0 shutout victory over the Vegas Golden Knights. Ingram and the Coyotes are slight +102 home underdogs against a Tampa Bay Lightning team that played last night and will be turning to goaltender Jonas Johansson, who has allowed three or more goals in nine of his last 10 appearances.

Ingram allowed two goals on 20 shots after replacing Karel Vejmelka during Wednesday's loss to the Blues. Ingram has been solid this season, going 6-3-0 with a 2.94 GAA and .910 SV% in 10 appearances (nine starts) but draws an awful matchup in Vegas on Saturday. The Coyotes are +209 road underdogs and remain without Barrett Hayton and Juuso Valimaki.

The Coyotes will turn back to Ingram on Monday as the team remains intent on evenly rotating between their two goaltenders, even though Ingram has been far more reliable this season. Of the Coyotes' eight wins this season, six belong to Ingram, who has put together an impressive 2.75 GAA and .918 SV% in eight appearances (6-1-0). That said, the Coyotes are +132 home underdogs against a Los Angeles Kings team that has points in 10 of their last 11 (9-1-1).

Ingram has been terrific for the Coyotes this season, winning five of the team's seven games, posting a 2.87 GAA and .911 SV%, noticeably outperforming teammate Karel Vejmelka, despite having played in two fewer games. Ingram looks poised for another strong performance on Thursday as the Coyotes are -117 road favourites against a Columbus Blue Jackets team that has lost six consecutive games (0-4-2), held to three or fewer goals in four of those contests.

Despite an even rotation between the pipes with Karel Vejmelka, Ingram has been the superior goalie for the Coyotes thus far and will pick up his sixth start on Tuesday against the Seattle Kraken. Over his last two games (2-0-0), Ingram has saved 57 of 60 shots (.950 SV%). The Kraken are averaging the sixth-fewest goals per game this season (2.66), which bodes well for the Coyotes, who rank in the top half of the league defensively (2.91 GA / GP).
