Devon Levi makes 39 saves in Oilers debut win over Kings

Fantasy hockey: Levi stopped 39 of 40 shots in his first Edmonton start, a hold as his new team builds a sample.

By Fantasy Roundup Staff · October 14, 2026

Devon Levi made 39 saves on 40 shots in Edmonton's 4-1 win over Los Angeles on Tuesday, October 13. He earned the win in 59:38 of ice time, his first start with the Oilers.

The performance was strong on its own, but Levi's recent averages come from 33 games with the Buffalo Sabres, where he posted a 3.37 GAA and .893 save percentage. Edmonton has no sample yet, so his workload and ratios with his new club remain unknown.

Levi's 39 saves on 40 shots in Tuesday's win was an impressive debut for Edmonton, allowing just one goal in nearly 60 minutes of work. The heavy shot volume gave him plenty of opportunity to showcase his ability, and the win suggests the Oilers trust him to handle starts. With two games remaining this week (Thursday and Saturday) and four next week, he could see more action soon.

The catch is that his .893 save percentage and 3.37 GAA were built with Buffalo over 33 games. Those numbers do not describe his role or ratios in Edmonton, where the team around him and his workload are still taking shape. Until a sample with the Oilers builds, his fantasy value depends on how many starts he receives and whether the improved roster lifts his ratios.

What to do

• Hold Levi as his role with Edmonton becomes clearer over the next few starts.

• Monitor his workload this week, with two more Oilers games on Thursday and Saturday.

• Wait for a multi-game sample before trusting his ratios in Edmonton lineups.
