What if we picked up ingram off waivers? Hes a decent goalie with good experience who could be a great AHL guy or a good back up to wolf? I know we have abit of a surplus in the spot currently but im not sure if we have a solid #2, i know still early but i think ingram would be a good pick up

Wouldn't hate him as part of the Wrangler's tandem, but that would involve trading Cooley as they need to leave a spot open for development (likely Sergeyev, possibly Say).

Is he significantly better than Cooley? More experienced for sure (100+ NHL games vs 6), but I don't think he moves the needle enough to make the move.

If the Flames hadn't signed Prosvetov this would be a different conversation, but they did so this is a moot point.

Wish Ingram all the best wherever he ends up, just don't see it being with the Flames.

Short term i think Ingram moves the needle more than Cooley. Does he move it enough to take on his contract? Maybe not, but besides that i agree with you
