The Oilers announced Wednesday that Savoie (undisclosed) has been ruled out for training camp so he can rehab from an injury that occurred during an offseason training session.
Analysis:Ryan Rishaug of TSN adds that Savoie is unlikely to be available until late October. While the exact nature of Savoie's injury isn't yet known, it's serious enough to sideline him for training camp activities in September. This news hurts Savoie's stock in upcoming fantasy drafts, but managers should keep an eye on him when he returns to the lineup -- he could be an appealing option if he winds up in a top-six role. The 22-year-old appeared in all 82 regular-season games last year and recorded 18 goals, 19 assists, 37 blocked shots, 24 PIM and 14 hits while averaging 14:47 of ice time.
