Owen Power is confident he can make a smooth transition to the National Hockey League. 
 
"I think if I was to sign and play in the NHL, I would have a pretty good adjustment to it and make an impact right away," the Michigan Wolverines defenceman said. "But I don't know if it's necessarily the best decision."
 
Power, who produced three goals and 16 points in 26 games as an NCAA freshman, isn't sure when he'll be turning pro. After a strange pandemic year, Power is interested in getting the full school experience. 
 
"I don't think there's really a bad option," he said of the 2021-22 season. "It's just where me and the people around me think is better." 
 
When he gets to the NHL, Power's destination seems likely to be Buffalo. The Sabres own the top pick in July's draft and Power is the top-ranked North American skater on NHL Central Scouting's final list. TSN director of scouting Craig Button had Power at No. 1 in his mock draft after Buffalo won lottery. 
 
"It'd be pretty special," Power said when asked about potentially being the top pick. "It's something every kid grows up dreaming about. Just to be in the conversation for that is pretty special. At the end of the day, it's out of my control, so can't look too much into it."
