Here’s the latest I can confirm based on recent reporting.
-
Connor Ingram has been in the news regarding his status with the NHL/NHLPA Player Assistance Program and his return timeline to play. Reports from mid-2025 indicate he was cleared to return and was preparing for the 2025-26 season, with ongoing discussion about his goaltending role for Utah Mammoth. This suggests positive developments in his status and a potential full return to NHL action for the 2025-26 season.[1][5]
-
There have been earlier, unrelated on-ice incidents involving Ingram, including a mask-related injury in 2024 and a notable mask safety incident reported in 2025, but those events are distinct from his program clearance and return-to-play status.[2][4][7]
-
More recent outlets in early 2026 have circulated video-based updates and discussions around his health and readiness, including claims of clearance and multiple injury-related entries, though not all sources are consistent on exact dates or teams involved. If you’re tracking his status for a specific game or team, I’d prioritize official league or team announcements for the most accurate, up-to-date confirmation.[6][8][9]
Would you like me to compile a concise timeline of Ingram’s status from 2024 to 2026 and list the most reputable sources after cross-referencing them? I can also pull the latest official statements if you specify which team (e.g., Utah Mammoth vs. any NHL club) you’re most interested in.
