The first pick of the latest amateur draft, Owen Power, who was selected by the poor Buffalo Sabres, made the red light sparkle three times against Czechia on Sunday night. His prowess allowed Canada to win.
The future star of the Buffalo Sabres is the first Canadian defenseman in history to score three goals in one game in this under-20 tournament. In this duel against the Czech players, it was soon realized that he would become a big star in the NHL.
In fact, Dave Cameron gave quite a speech about the man who decided to pursue his career with the NCAA instead of carving out a position with the Sabres this year. Cameron is impressed by one particular aspect of the young defender.
"It's his calm. He brings balance to this group. He did it at the World Championships, he did it in Michigan and he started it like that at the Junior Championships this year. It's his ability to play high-level hockey and stay calm. It's not taught." - Dave Cameron
In any case, on Sunday night, he dazzled everyone and showed that he already belonged to the NHL.
