connolly was good but injuries destroyed the rest of his career. the past years with the sabres he has been a total mess and is not the player he should be. I am a sabres fan and I am glad to see him gone sorry to say
only time will tell if this works out for toronto or not......Burke got the best player available after Richards went to the rangers ......hes got two years to prove his worth if not hes gone ....i'd be real worried if was signed to a 5 or more year multi million dollar deal but he wasn't
As a Sabres fan I hope him the best in Toronto. He used to be a beast, hope he gets back in that form and helps the Leafs. To you Leaf fans, I understand the pain of being in a long playoff drought. IM A BUFFALO BILLS FAN
anymore .. Maybe a change of city and team will help him gather what he has lost and maybe he'll work out for you guys. But its def not worth 4.75 horrible gamble ! If he does get back to his old self then you guys will have a awesome talented center but i just dont think its possible !!
Sabres fan here more importantly someone who was a huge fan of connolly and was always pulling for him. Over the pass ten seasons hes always showed flashes of potential greatness ( awesome hands lead to some pretty goals and some pretty set ups) so i always hoped hed finally get it all together and show consistancy but honestly it never came. Very in consistant, very soft. People for years been chanting here in buffalo for him to go . After the past 2 season i converted he really doesnt have it
It's nice to see a highlight reel video where some of the dangles don't finish in a goal. That behind the back move against the Isles was pretty sweet.
@bweiss22 WTF Connolly is a piece of garbage....he's prolly missed 20000 games due to injuries since he's a pussy and im guessing he's a minus-1000 for his career
@bweiss22 He's very much a pussy...he's beyond soft....marc savard came back from a concussion and scored the overtime winner his first game back and went into the corners
Connolly lacks desire and balls.....and most of these highlight players were right after the lockout when the league wanted goals and u couldnt even touch anybody
@bweiss22 His concussion was 4 years ago lol dude will miss a game if he has a hang nail....the guy is a joke....just floats around the ice likes he playing shinny hockey
41 year old mark recchi owned him in the playoffs..as did all the other bruin forwards
@bweiss22 He's not underrated, if anything, he is overrated. He is a terrific stick handler (and a creative passer), which is why people seem to like him so much, but he is a career minus player on a plus team; and his health is unreliable. Put it another way: how many big goals do you recall Connolloy scoring?
Yah hes pretty sick guy has brittle bone disease.... haha Gaborik or Hossa, not with Uncle Scrooge that penny pinching miser as a GM. Regier sucks, we need a tough stud on the team and we get Montador, the guy sucks, can't fight and was like a -19 on the season, DAMN IT DARCY SIGN SOME 1
You are possibly my hero i said that same thing SIGN SOME1 i called wgr yelling sign some1 its rediculous he wont sign some1 hes a joke lol but connolly is fucking sick as hell and hes the best player on the sabres idc if hes hurt hes sweet.
if by dirty you mean amazingly good then yes, he can move the puck better than anyone i've seen yes including crybaby crosby, but it is such a shame that he's always injured
@mattymark666 it's a shame he has estrogen flowing through his body...most of his highlight goals were right after the lockout when u did'nt have to fight to create a scoring chance...now that the NHL isn't a girls league anymore Connolly is MIA once again
girly girl Connoly...he should play with a skirt on
@mattymark666 making fun of the best hockey player in the league isnt going to help your cause you fucking low life.
Type in Crosby owning Spezza or Crosby amazing assist against the islanders. You'll see Crosby's skill dwarf any of the junior leagues moves Connolly pulls off.
he's very skilled, but oh my goddd hes always injured!! concussion after concussion damn! if he wasnt injured all the time, he's a candidate for a 90+ points per season
