She previously played in the Premier Hockey Federation (PHF) with the Buffalo Beauts, the Finnish Naisten Liiga (NSML) with HPK Hämeenlinna, and was affiliated with the Professional Women's Hockey Players Association (PWHPA), representing the organization in showcases with the Calgary chapter, as Team Scotiabank, and the Toronto chapter, as Team Sonnet.
As a teenager, Sauvé played for the Whitby Wildcats in the boys' Eastern AAA Hockey League, making it to the 2012 OHL Cup.
In January 2022, Sauvé signed with the Naisten Liiga team HPK Naiset in Hämeenlinna, Finland, filling the vacancy created by the departure of Noora Räty to the Zhenskaya Hockey League.
[11] HPK lost the quarterfinals of the Aurora Borealis Cup playoffs in a four-game series against HIFK despite Sauvé's league-leading .955 SV% and highly competitive 2.29 GAA.
Though she spent only a few months in Finland, Sauvé credited the time in the Naisten Liiga with reinvigorating her childhood love of ice hockey.
[12] Returning to North America after the half-season in Finland, Sauvé signed with the Buffalo Beauts as their starting goaltender for the 2022–23 PHF season.
[15] In January 2023, she was moved to the long-term injured reserve (LTIR) list after it was determined that her hip required surgery; rehabilitation kept her from playing another game in the 2022–23 season.
