According to NHL.com: "A third-round pick (No. 88) by the Tampa Bay Lightning in the 2016 NHL Draft, Ingram was 55-54-18 with a 3.01 GAA, .901 save percentage and nine shutouts in 134 regular-season games (129 starts) for the Oilers, Nashville Predators, Arizona Coyotes and Utah Hockey Club. He was 2-6 with a 3.76 GAA and .895 save percentage in nine playoff games (eight starts).
Ingram nearly retired due to obsessive compulsive disorder and lingering depression before seeking help from the NHL/NHLPA Player Assistance program Jan. 15, 2021.
After resuming his career, he won the Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy in 2023-24 while with Arizona. The award is presented annually to the NHL player who best exemplifies the qualities of perseverance, sportsmanship and dedication to hockey as voted on by members of the Professional Hockey Writers Association."
Ingram resumed his career in Arizona, but after struggling, Utah was picked up by the Edmonton Oilers. In 2025-26, Ingram went 16-10 with a .899 SV% and allowed 2.60 goals per game. Ingram was the Oilers' best goalie last season, as both Stuart Skinner (who started 2025-26 there) and Tristan Jarry really struggled.
The Oilers decided not to re-sign Ingram after the 2025-26 season.
