Tallies in big win Savoie scored a goal on three shots and went plus-2 in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Jets.

Impact Savoie has three goals over his last two games. His tally at 7:24 of the first period Saturday ended up being the game-winner in this blowout. The 21-year-old took some time to adjust to the NHL, but he's now at six goals, 10 points, 42 shots on net and a minus-2 rating over 29 appearances. He's worth considering in all fantasy formats as long as he can maintain a top-six role at even strength.

Shows special-teams skills Savoie scored two goals, one on the power play and the other shorthanded, in Thursday's 9-4 win over the Kraken.

Impact Savoie's shortie was in the second period, giving the Oilers a 4-2 lead. He added a power-play tally in the third as the Oilers looked for chances to give their top players rest in the blowout win. Savoie is seeing top-six minutes while Jack Roslovic (undisclosed is out) for the next few weeks. On the year, Savoie has five goals, nine points (three on the power play), 39 shots on net and a minus-4 rating through 28 appearances. Given his current role, he may be worth a short-term look in fantasy until the Oilers' forward group is healthier.

Tucks empty-netter Savoie scored an empty-net goal on two shots and went plus-2 in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Panthers.

Impact Savoie ended a four-game point drought with the final tally of this contest. The 21-year-old is still listed on the top line, but his 13:47 of ice time suggests he won't be seeing much prominent usage moving forward. That lineup also included Zach Hyman on the third line, which wasn't reflected in either player's usage. Savoie has six points, 31 shots on net and a minus-5 rating through 24 appearances, so he should be able to challenge for at least a 20-point campaign.

Scores vs. Columbus Savoie scored a goal and took three shots on goal in Thursday's 5-4 loss to the Blue Jackets.

Impact Savoie found the back of the net at the 8:09 mark of the second period with a tip-in, ending a six-game stretch in which he'd been unable to find the back of the net. Savoie only has two goals this season, but he should continue to have chances to produce as long as he skates alongside Connor McDavid in the first line. He has four points across his last eight games.

Two helpers against Philly Savoie picked up two assists in Wednesday's 2-1 overtime win over the Flyers.

Impact After helping to set up an Evan Bouchard tally in the final minute of the first period, Savoie worked a two-on-none break with jack Roslovic in OT that produced the game-winner. It was Savoie's first multi-point performance of the season, and so far his spot on an even-strength line with Connor McDavid hasn't resulted in much offense for the 21-year-old -- Wednesday's effort snapped a five-game point drought, and Savoie has just one goal and four points in 18 contests to begin his first full NHL campaign.

Scores first career goal Savoie scored a power-play goal in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Rangers.

Impact Savoie's goal was the first of his NHL career, and it put the Oilers ahead 2-1 in the second period. The 21-year-old has been a regular in the lineup this season, but he's yet to find much success on offense. He's at two points, 13 shots on net, eight blocked shots and a minus-5 rating through 12 appearances in a middle-six role. However, he's earned some trust on the defensive side of things, as he's seeing regular penalty-killing minutes, which will go a long way to keeping him in the lineup.
