According to Lance Lysowski of the Buffalo Sabres, #1 overall pick Owen Power will have to wait at least a season before making his NHL debut. Instead of joining the Sabres, Power will return to the University of Michigan for the upcoming season, according to Lysowski.

Owen Power will wait to make his National Hockey League debut with the Buffalo Sabres.
Power, the left-shot defenseman drafted first overall by the Sabres last month, will return to the University of Michigan for his sophomore season, a source told The Buffalo News on Thursday morning.

He will be the only #1 pick that hasn't played in the NHL his first year.

This is clearly because Buffalo is a very bad team. Every player wants to get traded and leave this organisation.
