Samuel Savoie

Rare is the shift where Savoie doesn’t plaster an opponent to the boards. Sometimes, it serves a tangible purpose, like stealing possession of the puck. Other times, he’s just sending a message: "Move the puck quickly or meet your doom." Savoie drives the net with matching enthusiasm, going all-in for every loose puck so that he can slem them past the goaltender. He’s fierce on retrievals, capable of winning possession by cutting inside the space of defenders. -EliteProspects 2022 NHL Draft Guide
