Concerning personal update released on Utah Hockey Club goaltender Connor Ingram
A concerning update has been released on Utah Hockey Club goaltender Connor Ingram, who has entered the NHLPA Player Assistance Program.
The Utah Hockey Club continue their push toward a postseason spot in their inaugural year in Salt Lake City, but they're going to be without one of their key players for an undetermined period.
Goaltender Connor Ingram has entered the NHLPA Player Assistance Program, and is going to be out for an indefinite amount of time.
Analyst Chris Johnston of TSN first reported the news on X:
From the official press release via the NHLPA:
Under the terms of the joint program, he will return to the Club when cleared for on-ice competition by the program administrators.
So far this year, Ingram had gone 9-8-4 with a 3.27 GAA and a .822 SV%. He was originally taken with the 88th overall pick in the 2016 NHL Entry Draft by the Tampa Bay Lightning, and later played in the Nashville Predators organization before being claimed off waivers by the Arizona Coyotes (now the Utah Hockey Club) in 2022.
This is the 2nd time that Ingram has entered the NHLPA Player Assistance Program
This isn't Ingram's 1st time in the NHLPA Player Assistance Program. He's already received help after he said he was suffering from a case of undiagnosed obsessive compulsive personality disorder.
He later explained what he was going through:
I would go to the rink and we would be on the ice for an hour and a half and I couldn't do those things for an hour and a half, I couldn't do it anymore. I'd be shaking.
