Levi agreed to terms on a two-year, $1.625 million contract with Buffalo on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Levi saw action in just nine NHL games last year in which he posted a sub-optimal 2-7-0 record, 4.12 GAA and .872 save percentage. With the team bringing in Alex Lyon in free agency, the 23-year-old Levi may face an uphill battle to secure the No. 2 spot in the crease. Given his age, Levi looks like he could benefit from another campaign as the starter with AHL Rochester.

Levi was shipped down to AHL Rochester on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Levi was disappointing in his last five outings, posting a 1-4-0 record and a 4.31 GAA along the way. The decision to send the 23-year-old netminder back to the Americans is a strong indication that Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen (undisclosed) will be available to at least serve as the backup against the Canucks on Tuesday.

Levi conceded five goals on 33 shots in Monday's 6-4 defeat to Seattle.

EDGE Analysis

While Levi has played in five of the Sabres' last seven outings, his performances have been underwhelming. During that stretch, the 23-year-old backstop is 1-4-0 with a 4.31 GAA and an .867 save percentage. At this point, the youngster may be better suited to sit behind James Reimer -- at least until Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen (undisclosed) is cleared to return.

Levi will serve as the starting goaltender for Monday's road matchup against the Kraken, Mike Harrington of The Buffalo News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Levi was called up by the Sabres on Saturday, and he'll draw the start in the first half of a back-to-back set Monday. He's made eight appearances in the NHL this year, going 2-6-0 with a 3.97 GAA and .876 save percentage.

Levi was recalled from AHL Rochester on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Buffalo placed Ryan McLeod (undisclosed) on injured reserve in a corresponding move. The Sabres have just 12 healthy forwards, though seven defensemen could play if Jiri Kulich (lower body) is unavailable during the team's upcoming four-game road trip that starts Monday in Seattle. Levi's presence on the NHL roster suggests he'll be in the mix to start against Seattle on Monday or Vancouver on Tuesday. However, the team has not revealed its goaltending plans yet.

Levi was reassigned to AHL Rochester on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

In Levi's last four NHL outings, he posted a 1-3-0 record, 4.05 GAA and .873 save percentage. With nobody winning games in Buffalo right now -- the team is 0-7-3 in its last 10 games -- it is understandable that the club would try to make some tweaks, but it appears deploying Levi was not the move.

Levi stopped 36 of 40 shots in Sunday's 5-3 loss to the Maple Leafs. The fifth goal was an empty-netter.

EDGE Analysis

Levi made his first start since Nov. 16 after being called up from the minors, but he didn't look good. His recent numbers haven't been positive, as Levi has gone 1-3-0 with a 4.05 GAA and an .873 save percentage across his last four appearances at the NHL level. With Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen and James Reimer entrenched as the two top options between the pipes, Levi doesn't figure to see a lot of ice time going forward.

Levi will guard the road goal Sunday against the Maple Leafs after being recalled from AHL Rochester, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen made 27 saves on 30 shots in Saturday's loss to Washington, and James Reimer was the backup. It's unclear why the Sabres brought up Levi, but head coach Lindy Ruff mentioned the lineup will have some game-time decisions. Levi has a 2-5-0 record with a 3.95 GAA and an .870 save percentage in seven NHL outings this season.

Levi will be sent down to AHL Rochester after head coach Lindy Ruff told reporters Monday, "He needs to play, simple as that."

EDGE Analysis

Levi became the odd man out after the team reacquired James Reimer off the waiver wire. The 22-year-old Levi has made seven appearances for the Sabres this season but is just 2-5-0 with a 3.95 GAA in those outings. With Levi headed back to the Americans, it will be Reimer who serves as the No. 2 option behind Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen (undisclosed).

Levi stopped 27 of 31 shots in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Flyers. Philadelphia's fifth goal was an empty-netter.

EDGE Analysis

Levi made his second straight start with Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen (undisclosed) sidelined once again, and the results weren't pretty. Levi has posted a sub-.890 save percentage in each of his last five outings, going 1-4-0 with a 4.60 GAA and .846 save percentage in that stretch. Unfortunately for the Sabres, Levi will remain between the pipes until Luukkonen is ready to return, unless the coaching staff decides to give James Reimer an opportunity amid Levi's struggles.
