The team won the silver medal, and Levi ended the tournament with a .964 save percentage (SV%) (topping the all-time record established by Carey Price in 2007).

[13][14][15] During every timeout, he drops to his knees 15 feet in front of his net, bows his head, and uses breathing techniques to reset.

[9][21] For the season, he had a .941 save percentage (SV%), and a 1.47 goals against average (GAA), with 8 shutouts (in 37 games), all leading the league.

[9][24][25][26] Canadians' head coach Jason Clarke said: "If there is anyone who is going to take the NCAA by storm next year and really do some special things, I’d bet my mortgage on Devon Levi.

On July 24, 2021, Levi's NHL rights, along with a 2022 first-round pick, were traded by the Panthers to the Buffalo Sabres in exchange for Sam Reinhart.

[28][29] Levi committed to play in Boston for the NCAA Division I Northeastern University's Huskies men's ice hockey team, starting in the 2020–21 season.

Levi won the Mike Richter Award as the top college goaltender and led Northeastern to the Hockey East regular season title.

Levi started the first 4 games for the Sabres, going 1-3-0 with a 3.26 GAA and a .892 save percentage, before suffering a lower body injury and missing over two weeks.

[39] However, upon Luukkonen's return, he emerged as the Sabres clear top goaltender,[40] and Levi was loaned to Rochester again in order to allow him to play more games.

[41] Levi would remain with the Americans throughout the month of February, and scored his first professional point on March 1, with an assist on Aleksandr Kisakov's game-winning goal.

[42] Levi first attracted the attention of Hockey Canada through his stellar performance at the 2019 World Junior A Challenge, an under-20 tournament.

[50][51] After the World Juniors, Levi revealed that he had played the entire tournament with a fractured rib, after sustaining the injury against the German team in the opening game.

[53][54] Levi did not feature in any games in the 2022 Olympics, as Canada chose to play Matt Tomkins and Edward Pasquale.
