Sabres' Owen Power: Shifts to IR
Owen Power (strain) landed on injured reserve Monday.Power is in danger of missing the regular-season opener Thursday against the Rangers, though it's unclear exactly how long he'll be sidelined for. Michael Kesselring (undisclosed) was also placed on injured reserve Monday, so Rasmus Dahlin and Bowen Byram will likely log heavy minutes during the early portion of the campaign. Power hit the 40-point mark for the first time in his career (seven goals, 33 helpers) in 2024-25, so he should be a key player for the Buffalo Sabres when healthy this year.

Sabres' Owen Power: Out Wednesday
Owen Power, who is dealing with a minor strain, won't participate in Wednesday's preseason game against Pittsburgh.Power is day-to-day due to the injury, so he still might be an option for Friday's exhibition tilt against the Penguins. Provided he's healthy, Power is expected to start 2025-26 as part of the Buffalo Sabres' top four. If he isn't available for the start of the regular season, then that would increase the chances of Jacob Bryson dressing for Buffalo's season opener against the Rangers on Oct. 9.

Sabres' Owen Power: Contending with minor strain
Head coach Lindy Ruff conveyed Tuesday that Owen Power is dealing with a minor strain and is day-to-day, according to Mike Harrington of The Buffalo News.Ruff didn't rule out Power from suiting up in Wednesday's preseason game versus Pittsburgh, but it seems unlikely that the 22-year-old defenseman will be available for that matchup. It's unclear if Power's strain is related to the lower-body injury that kept him out for the last three games of the 2024-25 campaign, but his status will be worth monitoring ahead of the Buffalo Sabres' regular-season opener against the Rangers on Oct. 9.
