Ingram, 25 (3/31/97), is 30-17-7 with a 2.70 goals-against average and .915 save percentage in 54 appearances for the Admirals, who have one regular-season game remaining. He leads AHL goalies in games played, minutes played (3,195:15), saves (1,541); is tied for first in shutouts (5); and is second in wins with a career-high 30. Ingram has recorded a 9-4-2 record in his last 15 starts and owns seven 40-save performances this season, headlined by a career-high 56 on Nov. 10 vs. Manitoba. The 6-foot-2, 196-pound netminder has made two starts for Nashville in 2021-22, picking up a win in his NHL debut on Oct. 24 at Minnesota. In doing so, he became the second goaltender in Predators history to earn a victory in his NHL debut, joining Pekka Rinne (Dec. 15, 2005 vs. Chicago); he also became the first goaltender other than Rinne or Juuse Saros to start a game for the Predators since the 2016-17 campaign.
Originally drafted by the Tampa Bay Lightning in the third round (88th overall) of the 2016 NHL Draft, Ingram is 86-43-15 in 149 career AHL appearances since making his debut in 2017-18. He's claimed several awards during his five AHL campaigns, including being named a two-time AHL All-Star (2019 and 2020) and earning the league's Harry "Hap" Holmes Memorial Award in 2019-20, which is presented to the goaltender or goaltenders who allow the fewest goals per game in the regular season. Before turning pro, Ingram spent three seasons with the WHL's Kamloops Blazers from 2014-17 and was selected as the Blazers' MVP in his final two seasons with the team. The Imperial, Sask., native also represented Canada at the 2017 World Junior Championship, posting a 2-1 record and one shutout, helping lead his country to a silver medal.
