Levi (undisclosed) is considered week-to-week.

Levi's injury is not expected to be long-term, but it is expected to be week-to-week as Edmonton is now down to Tristan Jarry as their starter. It is very unfortunate for Levi, who was enjoying a career resurgence in Edmonton, with his 6-1-0 record and 3.11 GAA.887 SV%>

Levi (undisclosed) will not dress on Saturday.

Levi did not practice on Friday and has been ruled out of Saturday's game against the Toronto Maple Leafs. Head Coach Mike Babcock did not explain why Levi was absent or how much time, if any, he might miss. Levi has been leading the way between the pipes for the Oilers early in 2026-27 and will likely hurt the team if he misses any time.

Levi will start vs. Carolina on Thursday.

Heading into the 2026-27 season, the Oilers were turning to a goaltending tandem of Frederik Andersen and Tristan Jarry, but an injury to Andersen created an opening for Levi, who is making the most of his opportunity. Levi is coming off a strong performance, saving 37 of 30 shots (.900 SV%) in a 4-3 win over the Minnesota Wild. The 24-year-old goalie has a 2.00 GAA and .931 SV% in his last five games (4-1-0). The Oilers enter Thursday's contest as slight +106 home underdogs against a Carolina Hurricanes team that is 8-1-0 in their last nine games.

Levi will start Tuesday vs. the Wild.

The Oilers have struggled between the pipes in recent seasons, but Devon Levi's play has been encouraging early in the 2026-27 season. That said, Levi is coming off his first loss as an Oiler, allowing three goals on 24 shots (.875 SV%) in a 4-2 loss to the Utah Mammoth. The 24-year-old goalie has allowed two or fewer goals in three of five games this season (4-1-0), posting a 2.83 GAA and .898 SV%. The Oilers enter Tuesday's contest as -129 home favourites against a 6-2-1 Minnesota Wild team.

Levi will start vs. Utah on Thursday.

The Oilers have struggled between the pipes in recent seasons, but they hope Levi can provide long-overdue stability after a promising start to the 2026-27 season. The 24-year-old Levi has yet to lose in four games this season (4-0-0), posting a 2.76 GAA and .903 SV%, and is coming off an outstanding performance, saving 39 of 40 shots (.975 SV%) in a 4-1 win over the Los Angeles Kings. The Oilers enter Thursday's contest as slight -110 home favourites against a Central Division-leading Utah Mammoth team that has scored 27 goals (3.9 GF/GP) in seven games (5-2-0).

Levi will start vs. Los Angeles on Tuesday.

Neither Tristan Jarry nor Devon Levi has been spectacular to start the 2026-27 season, but Levi hasn't lost yet and will return to the crease on Tuesday against the Los Angeles Kings. The 24-year-old Levi is coming off a strong performance, stopping 29 of 31 shots (.935 SV%) in a 5-2 win over the Anaheim Ducks, and is 3-0-0 with a 3.35 GAA and .863 SV% this season. The Oilers enter Tuesday's contest as -130 road favourites against a winless Kings team that has been outscored 17-10 through four games (0-2-2).

Devon Levi
Levi will start in Anaheim on Wednesday.

Levi has been far from spectacular, but he has won both of his outings and will return to the crease for a third straight game on Wednesday against the Anaheim Ducks. The 24-year-old goalie has a chance to earn significant playing time in Edmonton, but he certainly hopes to improve his 4.02 GAA and .810 SV% over his two games this season (2-0-0).

Devon Levi
Levi will start in Vancouver on Thursday.

With Frederik Andersen (undisclosed) expected to be out until December, and Tristan Jarry off to a discouraging start on Tuesday, allowing six goals on 23 shots (.739 SV%) in a 6-5 loss to the Vancouver Canucks, Levi tends the twine in a rematch against the Canucks. The 24-year-old Levi has excelled in the AHL but has struggled to translate that success to the NHL in previous stints with the Buffalo Sabres. Now, with the Oilers, who are desperate for an answer between the pipes, Levi has a chance to make his mark. The Oilers enter Thursday's contest as sizeable -212 road favourites.

Edmonton has acquired Devon Levi and a 2028 7th round pick from Buffalo for a 2028 3rd round pick.

Levi was once considered the goalie of the future with the Buffalo Sabres, but he failed to make that leap, ultimately spending most of the past two seasons in the AHL. The 24-year-old goalie posted a 2.83 GAA and .904 SV% last season in 52 games (23-20-9) with the Rochester Americans.

Buffalo has signed Devon Levi to a two-year, $1.625 million contract extension ($812,500 AAV).

Levi was once viewed as one of the top goaltending prospects in hockey, but has struggled to find a foothold in the NHL. The Sabres made it clear there was no guaranteed spot for Levi in Buffalo to start 2025-26 when they signed Alex Lyon in free agency. Levi, who was 25-13-4 with a 2.20 GAA and .919 SV% in 42 AHL games last season, will have to continue to earn his spot in the NHL. Over the span of three seasons, he's got 17-17-2 with a 3.29 GAA and .894 SV% in 39 NHL games.

Levi will start in Seattle on Monday.

Levi has not played an NHL game since December 15th when he allowed for goals on 40 shots (.900 SV%) in a 5-3 loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs. He has spent most of the 2024-25 campaign in the AHL, where he has a solid 2.33 GAA and .913 SV% in 17 games (12-3-2). The Sabres enter Monday's contest as +109 road underdogs against the Kraken.

Devon Levi
Levi has been loaned to Rochester (AHL).

Levi was recalled yesterday and played against the Toronto Maple Leafs, allowing four goals on 40 shots (.900 SV%) in a 5-3 loss. It was his first NHL action since November 16th. The Sabres return to the ice on Tuesday against the Montreal Canadiens and it is unclear if they may opt to recall Levi again ahead of that contest.
