Default Oil Problem

Heres the low down,Just bought my car used from private seller with extened warranty 2001 SS with 25,000 miles.The car ran great the first few days I drove it,Then started to feel lacking in the power comparment so I changed the plugs and o2s didn't help.So one after driving it I park in my garage and the coolant in the overflow left a huge puddle of coolant.I started the car let it run did the same thing with the overflow.Then thats when I noticed the blue smoke from the car when I give it gas Lets out a decent amount of smoke at half thrtolle.Do you think these two things ahppening at once are related?I know Ls1s cosume oil because of the piston slap issue.But the car feels underpowered and burning oil any ideas what it could be ? The car is at the dealer.sorry for so long thanx in advance
