Coyotes re-sign goalie Ingram to 3-year pact

The Arizona Coyotes re-upped goaltender Connor Ingram on a three-year pact, the team announced Sunday.

Ingram was a pending restricted free agent. His pact carries an average annual value of $1.95 million, reports Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman.

He appeared in 27 games for the Coyotes this season, posting a 6-13-8 record to go along with a .907 save percentage and 3.37 goals against average.

"We are very pleased to sign Connor to an extension," general manager Bill Armstrong said. "Connor is a good young goaltender who played well for us last season. He and Karel Vejmelka provided us with a strong goaltending tandem. We look forward to having him back between the pipes."

Arizona claimed the 26-year-old off waivers from the Nashville Predators prior to its first game of the 2022-23 campaign.

The Tampa Bay Lightning drafted Ingram 88th overall in 2016. Three years later, the Predators acquired him from the Bolts in exchange for a 2021 seventh-rounder.

Ingram owns a .905 save percentage and 3.40 goals against average in 30 career NHL outings. He appeared in four playoff games for the Predators in 2022, memorably making 49 saves in his first-ever postseason start against the Colorado Avalanche.
