The Buffalo Sabres defenseman Owen Power has agreed to a seven-year, $8.35 million contract extension. This contract will only become active at the start of the 2024-25 season.
Power’s contractual agreement comes just two days after the Sabres signed fellow defenseman Rasmus Dahlin to an eight-year extension worth $11 million per year. This comes as the team looks to grab their first Stanley Cup playoff spot since the 2010-11 season.
Scoring four goals and 35 points in 79 games last season, Power is expected to provide a significant boost to the Sabres’ defensive lines alongside Dahlin. They will be hoping to improve on their strong performance last season. While unable to make the playoffs, the team was able to grab 40 wins and 90 points in the same campaign for the first time since 2010-11.
