I don’t know if he will be sent down, but the Preds would want to see what they have in Ingram. I don’t think Ingram is waiver exempt, so my guess is that they keep him with the big club to backup Saros. Right now I would give the slight edge to Ingram, but a lot can change depending on who plays the last preseason game tonight.

Saros started the last 2 games for the Preds, so it’s hard to tell. Maybe they just aren’t concerned about giving Rittich reps, or perhaps he plays tonight against the Canes.
