Savoie was assigned to the AHL Rochester on Sunday.
Savoie, the ninth overall pick in 2022, tallied 38 goals and 95 points in 62 games this season with the Winnipeg Ice in the WHL. The 19-year-old Savoie will now join AHL Rochester for the Calder Cup semifinals. A strong showing from the young center could put Savoie in the mix for a roster spot with Buffalo in 2023-24.
