He has a reputation for building tough teams, and the Maple Leafs\u2019 response to this situation being anything but must have rubbed him the wrong way. Mike Futa added that a GM is not calling players unless he feels the need to, and why he felt the need to address this in particular is up for debate.<\/p>\n<p>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/nhltradetalk.com\/treliving-phoned-several-maple-leafs-players-after-matthews-hit\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">On the Hot Seat: Treliving Phoned Several Maple Leafs Players After Matthews\u2019 Hit<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Oilers Look to Third to Help With Goalie Woes<\/p>\n<p>The Edmonton Oilers\u2019 goaltending situation looks much different than it did at the start of the season, and after a roller-coaster year, they may have finally found their guy.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/i\/ingraco01.html?utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=nhltradetalk.com&amp;utm_campaign=2026-03-16_hr\">Connor Ingram<\/a> entered the season as Edmonton\u2019s third-string goalie and played 11 games in the AHL before getting a look with the big club.

He was given the label of starting goaltender, and if he can hold onto that role for the rest of the season, it\u2019s because he\u2019s earned it.
