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.

Levi will be between the visiting pipes against Philadelphia on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Levi will make his second straight start with Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen (undisclosed) out for another game. Levi is 2-4-0 with a 3.87 GAA and an .870 save percentage across six appearances this season. Philadelphia has registered 2.71 goals per game in 2024-25.

Levi stopped 24 of 27 shots in Thursday's 4-3 overtime win over the Blues.
EDGE Analysis
Levi made his sixth appearance of the season Thursday and picked up his second win in the process. The 22-year-old had lost three consecutive contests before Rasmus Dahlin buried the winning goal in overtime. Levi will be hard to trust due to his lack of consistent playing time -- his last start before Thursday was Nov. 1. The Quebec native is sporting a 2-4-0 record, .870 save percentage and 3.87 GAA.

Levi will be between the pipes for Thursday's home game against St. Louis, Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Levi operated in the starter's crease during Thursday's practice session, and he'll officially draw the start since Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen (undisclosed) will be sidelined. Over five appearances this season, Levi has posted a 1-4-0 record, 4.10 GAA and .866 save percentage.

Levi allowed two goals on four shots in Monday's 7-5 loss to Montreal. Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen (undisclosed) stopped 14 of 18 shots before leaving the game, and Montreal's seventh marker was an empty-netter.
EDGE Analysis
Levi was saddled with the loss despite logging just 18:50 of ice time in the game. Following an injury sustained during Sunday's practice, Luukkonen left Monday's game after the second period. Levi could get the nod for Thursday's home matchup versus St. Louis if Luukkonen isn't available.

Levi allowed four goals on 36 shots in Friday's 4-3 loss to the Islanders.
EDGE Analysis
Levi performed admirably in Friday's loss but didn't receive much help from his teammates in the defensive zone. The 22-year-old's previous outing was a 6-4 loss to Columbus on Oct. 17, so he shouldn't be on the radar of most fantasy managers due to his inconsistent playing time. Levi and  Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen have struggled early on as Buffalo is off to a sluggish 4-6-1 start. Levi is sporting a 1-3-0 record, an .878 save percentage and a 3.91 GAA through four appearances.

Levi will protect the home crease versus the Islanders on Friday, according to Heather Engel of NHL.com.
EDGE Analysis
Levi will make his fourth start of the campaign and his first since Oct. 17, when he gave up six goals on 25 shots in a 6-4 loss to Columbus. Levi is 1-2-0, allowing 11 goals on 87 shots this season. He will face the Islanders, who have found the back of the net 21 times this season, the lowest in the NHL.

Levi made 19 saves in Thursday's 6-4 loss to the Blue Jackets.
EDGE Analysis
The Sabres never led in the game, looking sluggish after their overtime loss to the Penguins on Wednesday and falling into a 2-0 hole before the first intermission. Levi had allowed just five goals on 62 shots in his first two starts of the season, but while the bad night is likely more indicative of the play of his teammates, Columbus clearly had a book on the young netminder and consistently targeted him glove side. Expect Buffalo to turn back to Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen for Saturday's game in Chicago.
