O'Connor scored a goal in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Jets.

EDGE Analysis

O'Connor scored for the first time since Feb. 6 versus the Sharks. The 26-year-old has handled a middle-six role lately, but with just two assists over the 13 contests prior to Tuesday, he has not been reliable enough on offense to help most fantasy managers. For the season, he's earned nine goals, 21 points, 103 shots on net, 69 hits, 50 blocked shots and a minus-14 rating over 70 appearances between the Canucks and the Penguins.

O'Connor notched a shorthanded assist and three shots on goal in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Kraken.

EDGE Analysis

O'Connor set up Dakota Joshua's tally in the second period. This was O'Connor's second straight game with an assist, and he has four points over nine outings since the Canucks acquired him in a trade with the Penguins. The 26-year-old defensive forward is at 20 points, 99 shots on net, 60 hits, 44 blocked shots and a minus-14 rating over 62 appearances this season.

O'Connor notched an assist and two shots on goal in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Ducks.

EDGE Analysis

O'Connor snapped a four-game point drought with the helper. Over the 4 Nations Face-Off break, the Canucks signed O'Connor to a two-year contract extension, which signals he's going to be a part of the team's middle six for a while. The 26-year-old has three points over eight contests since Vancouver acquired him from Pittsburgh, and he's at 19 points, 96 shots on net, 59 hits, 43 blocked shots and a minus-15 rating through 61 appearances this season.

O'Connor agreed to terms on a two-year, $5 million contract extension with Vancouver on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

O'Connor was scheduled to be an unrestricted free agent this offseason but has tied himself to the Canucks for two more seasons after being acquired by the club via trade in late January. In limited action with Vancouver, the 26-year-old winger has notched two goals on 10 shots in four games despite seeing slightly less ice time per game (13:57) than he was with Pittsburgh (14:37).

O'Connor scored a goal on a penalty shot, added two PIM and logged two hits in Thursday's 2-1 overtime win over the Sharks.

EDGE Analysis

Macklin Celebrini hooked O'Connor 33 seconds into overtime. O'Connor made no mistake on the penalty shot for his second goal in three games as a Canuck. He's already been promoted to the second line at even strength as head coach Rick Tocchet looks for forward trios that will have chemistry. O'Connor doesn't get power-play time, but he'll be a fixture in the lineup and can chip in some depth scoring. For the season, the 26-year-old has eight goals, 18 points, 91 shots on net, 55 hits, 42 blocked shots and a minus-12 rating over 56 outings between Vancouver and Pittsburgh.

O'Connor scored an empty-net goal on three shots, added two hits and logged two PIM in Tuesday's 3-0 win over the Avalanche.

EDGE Analysis

This was O'Connor's first goal in two appearances since the Canucks acquired him as part of the Marcus Pettersson trade last Friday. The 26-year-old has slotted into a third-line role with the Canucks, similar to what he was seeing in Pittsburgh prior to the trade. He's at seven goals, 10 assists, 85 shots on net, 53 hits, 41 blocked shots and a minus-13 rating over 55 appearances in 2024-25.

O'Connor and Marcus Pettersson were traded to the Canucks from the Penguins on Friday in exchange for Danton Heinen, Vincent Desharnais, Melvin Fernstrom and a conditional first-round pick.

EDGE Analysis

O'Connor will be an addition for the Canucks' middle six, but he's not the highlight of the trade. The 26-year-old has produced 16 points, 82 shots on net, 51 hits, 40 blocked shots and a minus-14 rating over 53 appearances with the Penguins. O'Connor had 33 points in 79 outings in 2023-24, so perhaps a change of scenery will unlock a bit more offense. He could also play alongside fellow Friday trade acquisition Filip Chytil, who is a strong upgrade over the combination of Lars Eller, Cody Glass and Kevin Hayes that centered the third line in Pittsburgh.

O'Connor recorded a goal and an assist in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Oilers. He also notched two shots on goal, one hit and a plus-2 rating.

EDGE Analysis

O'Connor recorded a multi-point effort for the second time across his last five appearances, a span in which he's tallied three goals and two assists. The 26-year-old center is going through his most productive stretch of the campaign, but he's not expected to have a lot of fantasy opportunities due to his bottom-six role.

O'Connor notched an assist in Sunday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Hurricanes.

EDGE Analysis

O'Connor has earned three points over his last three outings. The 26-year-old had been quiet over the previous seven contests, so there's no guarantee he'll be stable on offense going forward. He continues to play in a third-line role, though he's also picked up some power-play time lately, which gives him a better opportunity to produce. O'Connor has 13 points, 60 shots on net, 37 hits, 34 blocked shots and a minus-13 rating through 41 appearances.

O'Connor scored two goals, one on the power play, in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Red Wings.

EDGE Analysis

His third-period tally tied the game at 2-2, but no one else stepped up with some offense for the Penguins. It was also the first power-play goal of O'Connor's career, and he's seen significant time with the man advantage in two straight games, providing a physical net-front presence to complement the skills of Sidney Crosby, Erik Karlsson and Evgeni Malkin. O'Connor has five goals and 12 points in 39 appearances this season, but if he hangs onto his new assignment he could pick up his scoring pace.
