Since it was the power link that failed, there's no reason to assume the chain has a problem, nor to cut it shorter. Simply replace the power link and you're good to go.

Note: Sram says not to reuse 10s powerlinks, yet you say you remove the chain every weekend. Are you replacing the powerlink each time? Of how many times have you reused a use once-throw away powerlink?
