Great point. When you give up trying to win games and just concentrate on scoring goals in 7-4 losses you maximize his talent. Stupid Sabres.


Even defensive teams have offensive lines right??

Of course, that's always the crux of the Max arguments, isn't it? "Oh, Max would have been fine, except Lindy always stashed him on the 4th line."

Then again, that means people ignore when he was playing on the RAV line.....Roy, Afinogenov, Vanek. He played well on that line, until he started wandering off to do his 1 on 4 rushes, leaving Roy and Vanek to do nothing but stand and watch. Any player who does that deserves to get demoted.

Good for Max to be doing well down there. As evidenced by his 05-06 and 06-07 seasons, he plays very well when offense is the focus of the team, not defense.

Oh, and if you were wondering, he has 1 point, and is -8 in his last 5 games.

Maxim Afinostatsov http://sports.espn.go.com/nhl/players/stats?playerId=7

I hate to re-zombie another thread but didn't feel like starting one about Max. (And I seriously thought about making a thread saying Confirmed: Maxim Afinogenov to Sabres thread)

Anyone else think it's extremely fishy that he plays the first full season of his life with the Thrashers?

Yeah, why have all these old threads been being bumped all of a sudden?

Well for future reference, would you rather I start another thread or phoenix another one?
