2025 Fantasy Outlook
Levi didn't do anything to help his cause in limited NHL action in 2024-25, going 2-7-0 with a 4.12 GAA and a .872 save percentage over nine appearances. He was much better with AHL Rochester, going 25-13-4 with a 2.20 GAA and a .919 save percentage over 42 regular-season games. Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen took a big step back at the NHL level, so there could be a fairly open competition for playing time in training camp. Levi is still just 23 years old, so he's young enough to have a breakthrough that allows him to stay in the NHL for good. He'll already be on dynasty rosters, but redraft managers should consider him a late-round option with upside in drafts this fall. Read Past Outlooks

GBuffalo Sabres
April 29, 2026
Levi was called up from AHL Rochester on Wednesday, along with forwards Konsta Helenius, Riley Fiddler-Schultz and Anton Wahlberg and defensemen Ryan Johnson, Vsevolod Komarov and Radim Mrtka, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Rochester was eliminated in the first round of the Calder Cup Playoffs by AHL Toronto on Sunday. Levi will slot in as the Sabres' fourth goalie after posting a 23-20-9 record, a 2.83 GAA and a .904 save percentage over 52 regular-season outings for the Americans. All of the players called up will have the opportunity to practice with the big club, though it's unlikely any of them will see meaningful playing time during the Sabres' postseason run.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
Levi split time between Buffalo and AHL Rochester last season. Expectations of instant NHL stardom were simply too much, but he thrived in the minors once he went down in January. Levi posted a 16-6-4 record and 2.42 GAA in 26 games with the Amerks, and started to look every bit the star people believed he'd be. His 2024-25 seems set in the AHL after the Sabres inked Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen to a five-year deal in late July. Honestly, that's good for Levi and the Sabres, too, at least for a couple of seasons. The young netminder can grow his game and then move into the backup role in 2025-26.
Although Levi wasn't selected until the No. 212 overall pick in the 2020 NHL Entry Draft, at this point his potential is clear. He was a phenomenal netminder with Northeastern University, posting a 2.24 GAA and a .933 save percentage in 34 NCAA games as a junior last year. He also got a taste of the NHL with Buffalo, recording a 5-2-0 record, 2.94 GAA and .905 save percentage in seven starts. While those numbers with the Sabres don't look great, he didn't get much help defensively, which is highlighted by him finishing the campaign with 3.1 goals saved above expected. Unfortunately, Buffalo might not be able to help him much more defensively this season. The 21-year-old goaltender might also go through some growing pains, which further makes him a risk. Still, he's positioned to start the campaign as Buffalo's starting goaltender and that, combined with his sky-high potential, makes him an interesting fantasy option.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Interest from Ottawa?
GBuffalo Sabres
May 22, 2026
Ottawa might be interested in acquiring Levi from Buffalo, according to Bruce Garrioch of The Ottawa Citizen on Friday.
ANALYSIS
The Senators are believed to be in the market for a backup goaltender capable of handling a fair amount of the workload to take the pressure off starter Linus Ullmark. The 24-year-old Levi might fit that bill, though he would be something of a risky option. He was at one time a highly regarded prospect, but the shine has worn off a bit due to his 3.29 GAA and .894 save percentage across 39 career NHL appearances. He had a 2.83 GAA and a .904 save percentage in 52 regular-season outings with AHL Rochester in 2025-26 while Buffalo used Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen, Alex Lyon and Colten Ellis ahead of Levi. Even if Levi isn't the answer in Ottawa, a change of scenery might be in his best interests.
