Overview

  • Utah placed Connor Ingram on waivers Thursday, making him available to all NHL clubs before any AHL assignment.
  • General manager Bill Armstrong said waivers are the route for a mutual separation, either leading to another NHL opportunity or a stint in the AHL.
  • Under NHL rules, claims must be filed by 2 p.m. ET Friday, after which Utah can assign Ingram to its AHL affiliate if he goes unclaimed.
  • Ingram was cleared to play on Aug. 20 after entering the NHL/NHLPA Player Assistance Program in March and did not take part in Utah’s training camp.
  • He is in the final year of a three-year contract with a $1.95 million cap hit, following a standout 2023-24 season with six shutouts and a down 2024-25 marked by a .882 save percentage.
