‘Matt Savoie was taken ninth overall by the Sabres in 2022. He has ripped up junior hockey for the past two seasons, but has had trouble staying healthy. He too brings speed to the game, but Buffalo just drafted Konsta Helenius in the first round of this year’s draft. Adams said on draft day that Helenus was going to be a center only. They already have first round picks Jiri Kulich and Noah Ostlund playing center, so that may have made Savoie expendable.’
