Matthew Savoie | Note | Using one hand on the stick while fending off the defenseman with this other arm, yet he is still able to use his wrist strength and make a nice, one-handed pass in the offensive zone. | Brian Fogarty | Winnipeg vs Moose Jaw (WHL) | 10/23/2021 | 11/2/2021 | 10244 |

Matthew Savoie | Note | His ability to pass off the puckhandle makes his shot more deceptive as he closes on goal. No one can cheat shot when he has the puck on his stick. His vision and hands are so good that he just freezes everyone in place. | Brian Fogarty | Winnipeg vs Moose Jaw (WHL) | 10/23/2021 | 11/2/2021 | 10244 |
Matthew Savoie | Note | Hands are so lively and agile. Bouncing puck in front had no chance when it landed within Savoie's reach. | Brian Fogarty | Winnipeg vs Moose Jaw (WHL) | 10/23/2021 | 11/2/2021 | 10244 |
Matthew Savoie | Note | Hustling through the neutral zone, a chip pass bounces to him, and he chokes way up on his stick to get better control. He brings the puck down and enters the offensive zone at full speed and with full puck possession. What a play. | Brian Fogarty | Winnipeg vs Moose Jaw (WHL) | 10/23/2021 | 11/2/2021 | 10244 |
Matthew Savoie | Note | Puck bounces off the end boards. Savoie closes to the goal line and one-times the bounce down the goal line and into the net. Wow! | Brian Fogarty | Winnipeg vs Moose Jaw (WHL) | 10/23/2021 | 11/2/2021 | 10244 |
Matthew Savoie | Summary | Excellent player. His passing and vision are near elite level. Skates exceptionally well, and alters pace as necessary to keep defenders guessing. As mentioned, his ability to pass instantly during puckhandling, equally adept forehand or backhand, freezes defenders and goalies and forces them to try to protect against both pass and shot, meaning they are often caught between choices and have a hard time defending either. High iq player in total control of the his game. | Brian Fogarty | Winnipeg vs Moose Jaw (WHL) | 10/23/2021 | 11/2/2021 | 10244 |
