Overview

  • Edmonton obtained Ingram from the Utah Mammoth for future considerations, with Utah retaining $800,000 of his $1.95 million cap hit.
  • The Oilers assigned the 28-year-old to the AHL’s Bakersfield Condors immediately after the trade, and his NHL cap charge would be $1.15 million if recalled.
  • Ingram cleared waivers last week, enabling a direct AHL assignment, and the trade route allowed Edmonton to secure salary retention rather than keep him on the NHL roster.
  • He entered the NHL/NHLPA Player Assistance Program on March 9 and was cleared Aug. 20 after a season in which he went 9-8-4 with a 3.27 GAA and .882 save percentage in 22 starts.
  • Edmonton adds experienced depth behind Stuart Skinner and Calvin Pickard; Ingram is in the final year of a three-year, $5.85 million contract and can become a UFA after this season.
