Sabres fan here: Hedman, Chara and Pronger all were nothing at all until year 5, Power is in year 2 and we all know players seem to always have a second year slump. Power has been a plus player playing 22 minutes, I have no issues with his game. Remember, Buffalo has terrible coaching and it’s a good sign he’s playing well with bad coaches. Come back in year 4-5 and then Judge a young D man. The only thing I wish power would change is I wish he was more physical in front of the net using his big body to push guys out of the way of the goalie. That’s my only complaint with him at all. Most big players are not tough, Chara and Pronger are super rare to get a D man that huge and so nasty.
Seider is almost 2 years older than
How are you gonna skip over Mctavish as if the man hasn’t been balling for the ducks
Really, Owen is the poster child for why the sabres need a new coach. The team is soft, they play soft… they need the banging added to their game.. sadly, I had hoped they'd get a shot at the playoffs and find out the hard way what that means.. but they don't even have enough to get into the playoffs.. Granato is a good skills coach.. but not the entire package.
Why are they comparing Owen power to moritz seider it’s 2 completely different players and age difference such a stupid take by biz compare him to Luke Hughes someone that’s from his draft
It’s is his second year in the league bruh
The fact Power has already played more NHL games than that homophobic/gay weirdo I don’t think he really cares.
He absolutely shoud be called out on his lack of physical play. I've noticed (not just him) but the Sabres could have stopped in its tracks, so much offensive zone (for the other team) time just by playing the body. Most of the time I see one offensive guy go in and still maintain the puck along the boards with players like Power (and I will call out Mittelstadt for this as he has done it every game) when all it would take is a push of the player off or away from the puck and your teammates could handily control and exit the zone. I see this every game, and yet fans boo the goalie for not making the save when the whole play could have been prevented.
Owen power just needs to play like he’s 6’6 220. Other than that he’s fine. His breakout pass% is actually the best in the nhl among ALL defensemen.
Your description of Power reminds me of Tyler Myers back in the day
OP is not a bust yet but he definitely showed no improvement this year
People were saying because sanderson got 8 power deserved 9 and now they won't even back the 8.35.
Also this same conversation was had last year when cam York compared him to a "friendly" pronger as he has no bite to his game, year later nothing has changed.
As I watch LR9 more often I realize his hockey intelligence is lacking just based off of his interpretation of what Biz said
LR9 has never played or been around competitive hockey a day in his life
Waste of god given 6'6" frame! The dude could have knocked people down more onto the butts and that make so much difference to the team.
Power's bad on defence. He's ok on other areas. That contract from next year? Ooof.
Owen Power puff pastry.
GMKA panicked and gave OP a huge deal well before had earned it.
I’m a Sabres fan and we’ve been terrible for so long that anyone good or potentially good needs to be locked up because we aren’t able to sign top talent with this drought
He'll be Canada's starting LD in a few years. Not to worry.
