The Sabres selected Savoie with the No.9 overall pick in this summer's NHL Draft. Savoie played for the Winnipeg Ice (WHL) in 2022, leading the team with 90 points (35G / 55A) in 65 games.

Walman was acquired from the Blues for Nick Leddy at the trade deadline and had four assists in 19 games with the Red Wings. With Walman out for the start of the season, there's a very good chance that rookie Simon Edvinsson will start the season with the Red Wings.

Pickard has appeared in 116 career NHL games with five different teams since 2015, going 35-54-19 with a 3.03 GAA and .903 SV%. In 2022, he spent most of the year in the AHL, going 21-16-5 with a 2.58 GAA and .918 SV% with Grand Rapids. He'll likely replace Stuart Skinner in Bakersfield.















With the Oilers facing elimination, they will be without their best defenseman in Game 6. Nurse missed the final four games of the regular season with an injury and the Oilers went 3-1-0 without him.
