‘Savoie, who was ranked by NHL Central Scouting as the fourth-best North American skater in the draft, likely has the shortest timeline to join the young core in Buffalo. The 18-year-old totaled 41 goals and 102 points in 75 games between the regular season and playoffs for the Ice. Listed at 5-foot-9, he is a dynamic skater and playmaker with the ability to play center or wing. He spent most of his time at the former this season, showcasing the tantalizing skill set that made him a candidate to play a full season in the Western Hockey League at only 15 years old.’
