EDMONTON, AB – The Edmonton Oilers have acquired goaltender Devon Levi and a seventh-round selection in the 2028 NHL Draft from the Buffalo Sabres in exchange for Edmonton’s third-round selection in the 2028 NHL Draft.

Levi (6’0”, 192 lbs, 24) spent last season with the Sabres’ AHL affiliate, the Rochester Americans, compiling a record of 23-20-9 with a 2.83 goals-against average, 904 save percentage and three shutouts. His 23 wins were the eighth-most among AHL goalies this past season.

Over 120 career AHL games with the Amerks, spanning parts of three seasons, he had a record of 64-39-17 with a 2.52 goals-against average, .914 save percentage, and 10 shutouts, while earning an AHL All-Star Game nod during the 2024-25 season.
