The fear is he plays well the remaining games and GMKA decides he finally found Power’s Partner without exploring any other options 

The Sabres Brass loves to engage in the most stringent form of recency bias when nothing matters at the end of a season. They then anchor their opinions on that for months on months until forced to realize they were wrong. Then the entire process repeats. 

Last 20 games: OH WOW! That guy looks good with that other guy when we are playing non-playoff teams and there are no stakes

Training Camp: Remember last year that thing, we should do that!

First 20 games: That thing isn't working but it will, it will, gotta give it more time, the answers in the room!

2nd 20 games: Just some bad luck, it will be okay, we believe in these guys, remember last year when they did that thing?

3rd 20 games: Oh no, this didn't work, it is hard to improve the team, palm trees and all that, woe is me

Last 20 games: OH WOW! That guy looks good with that other guy when we are playing non-playoff teams and there are no stakes

Kevyn Adams and Terry Pegula's favoritism of certain players is the most childish and pathetic example of this.

While there is much truth to this analysis, occasionally young guys do build on their late season heroics.  Whether JBD is one of those guys only time will tell.
