Connor scored a goal and added an assist in a 7-4 loss to the Lightning on Saturday.

And his 43 goals are sixth-best in the NHL. Connor also sits 14th in NHL scoring with 87 points (73 games). But with the loss, the Jets now sit 10 points back of the Stars for the second wild card.

Connor and the Jets won't be in action versus Seattle on Wednesday after the league postponed the game due to bad weather.
EDGE Analysis
Connor has already set career bests in goals (42), assists (43) and shots (290) and will no doubt be eager to continue building on those impressive numbers versus Florida on Friday. With nine games remaining, it's not impossible that Connor will join Auston Matthews, Leon Draisaitl and Chris Kreider at the 50-goal threshold.

Connor has cleared the league's COVID-19 protocols and rejoined practice Monday, Mitchell Clinton of the Jets' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Connor missed three games over the course of his five-day isolation period but should retake his spot in the top six heading into Wednesday's clash with the Red Wings. In his last 11 appearances, the 25-year-old winger racked up eight goals and 12 assists, including four power-play points. With Connor back in action, he figures to resume offering top-end fantasy value for the final month of the season.

Connor entered the NHL's COVID-19 protocols Wednesday, Mike McIntyre of the Winnipeg Free Press reports.
EDGE Analysis
The fact that Connor has tested positive for the virus suggests he'll likely miss multiple contests at a minimum. With Connor on the shelf, look for Paul Stastny to slot into a first-line role versus the Sabres on Wednesday. Another update on Connor will undoubtedly surface once he clears the league's COVID-19 protocols.
