With only 2 assists in two games, Afinogenov needs to get going. He understand the pressue that comes with playing in a high profile city like Florida

"Me know to play better. Points will come if I patient. Play with Drury will helps me and it it score goals soon" said Afinagenov.
After signed a one year extension, GM Penney is confident that he will get going and be a valuable contributor to the Panthers.
"We will give Afinogenov every opportunity to succeed here in Florida' said Penney. "We made a commitment to him and have guarenteed that he will not be traded in the near future. Afinogenov has been unfairly treated in Montreal and Nashville. The same won't happen here" Said Penney.
