Goaltender Connor Ingram says he is retiring from hockey at age 29

Connor Ingram, the goaltender who battled undiagnosed obsessive-compulsive disorder and turned to alcohol to cope with anxiety, has announced his retirement at the age of 29.

This marks the end of his NHL career, which began in 2021 with stints in Nashville, Arizona/Utah, and Edmonton.

Following his announcement on Instagram, Ingram expressed gratitude towards the game, stating, "Don’t be sad it’s over. Be happy it happened. Thanks hockey, I owe ya." His agent, Jason Davidson, has confirmed Ingram's decision to hang up his skates.
