i would say connolly hogs the puck more then afino does. When Afinogenov is playing well, he's the best forward on the sabres because of the space he creates / and that he can cycle all by himself. His biggest shortcoming is obviously his shot, so dmen can back off him a bit, and wait for him to make that pass. I think with his wrist not being 100% he is even less able to take a good shot/ make a strong pass, so he's trying to do a bit too much stickhandling. He made one strong play entering the zone tonight where he got 2-3 rangers to stay up in the zone and helped create a good chance down low. But he's def. been one of the weakest forwards on the sabres.
