‘Power’s time on the ice can easily be classified as high-octane action as the Sabres have given up 80 scoring chances at 5-on-5, by far the most on the team. But they’ve also managed 70 of their own, a total surpassed by only Dahlin’s 74. Fans want instant gratification but it was only over the final 30 games of last season, more than 200 into his career, where Dahlin first reached the level of play befitting his draft status. Power is a long-term play.’
