By "slow power," are you looking at ID or something like, oh, Snowstorm?

While you won't get the +SPD buff at all, and so it won't offset Slow, I think you should still get any Slow Res that the buff might grant.
[Edit:] Thought I could test that by myself, but it's other players' speed buffs only.

Yeah, Speed Boost keeps you out of Caltrops now not because of the +Spd, but because of the +100% Res(Spd).
