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).
Ingram will return to the Coyotes crease on Thursday after Karel Vejmelka served between the pipes for Wednesday's 4-3 overtime loss in Anaheim. Ingram's coming off his best start of the young season, stopping 29 of the 30 shots he faced in Monday's 8-1 victory over the Blackhawks. The 26-year-old netminder owns a .914 SV% and a 2.51 GAA to go along with his 2-1-0 record across four appearances on the season. Ingram and the Coyotes are -130 favourites over the Canadiens on Thursday.
Ingram will return to the Coyotes crease for the fourth time this season after he was pulled just 12 minutes into his last start against the Rangers on Tuesday. Ingram surrendered three goals on just nine shots before being lifted in favour of Karel Vejmelka in what was by far Ingram's worst start of the young season. The 26-year-old netminder will be hoping to regain the form he flashed in his first two starts of the season, when he stopped 50 of the combined 54 shots he faced (.926 SV%). He draws a dream matchup tonight with the Coyotes being -190 favourites at home over the Blackhawks.
Ingram will return to the crease on Tuesday for his third game, as the Coyotes continue to split time between their two netminders early this season. Ingram has played well to start the season, posting a 2.02 GAA and .926 SV% in two games (1-1-0). The Coyotes are +161 road underdogs against a Los Angeles Kings team that is scoring (4.20 GF/GP) almost as much as they are allowing (3.80 GA/GP).
Ingram has served as backup goalie to Karel Vejmelka in two of three games this season but will return to the pipes on Thursday against the St. Louis Blues. In his only game thus far, Ingram came short of securing a victory for the Coyotes despite allowing only two goals on 28 shots in a 2-1 loss to the New York Rangers. Early on, the Coyotes seem committed to a two-goalie system but any false step could give more security to the other. The Coyotes are slight -102 road underdogs against a Blue team that has only scored two goals in their first two games (1-0-1).
Ingram was 6-13-8 with a 3.37 GAA and .907 SV% during 2022-23 and has signed a $1.95 Million contract extension with Arizona to remain in a goalie tandem with Karel Vejmelka. The 26-year-old goaltender will be entering his third NHL season in 2023-24, having played in 30 games with both Nashville and Arizona.
Ingram stopped 42 of 45 shots (.933 SV%) to snap a four-game losing streak as he beat Calgary in his last start. The 25-year-old has steadily improved his numbers in the last two months, giving him a respectable .909 SV%, 3.37 GAA and 6-13-6 record. He takes on the Edmonton Oilers, who have won four-straight games and are first in the NHL in shots per game (3.93).
Ingram allowed three goals on 44 shots (.932 SV%) for his fourth-straight loss as he was beaten by the Colorado Avalanche in his last time between the pipes. The 25-year-old has drastically improved his numbers in the last month, as he now has a .907 SV%, 3.39 GAA and a 5-13-6 record. He will take on the Calgary Flames, who have won three of their last four games and are second in the NHL in shots per game (35.5).
Ingram allowed six goals on 34 shots (.824 SV%) to snap a two-game winning streak as he was defeated by Nashville in his last start. The 25-year-old Coyotes' backup has improved his numbers drastically in the last couple of weeks, leading to his 5-12-4 record, 3.30 GAA and .908 SV%. He will face the struggling Dallas Stars, who have lost six of their last seven games after a 5-4 overtime loss to Vancouver last game.
