EDGE Analysis
It came on a backhander during a partial breakaway at the end of the second period. It was Connor's 35th of the season and seventh game-winner this season. He leads the Jets in goals (35), points (65), PPP (21), shots (255) and GWG (7), and is 15 points ahead of Mark Scheifele on the overall team scoring lead. And those 35 goals are fifth overall in the NHL, behind only Auston Matthews, Leon Draisaitl, Chris Kreider and Alex Ovechkin.

Connor scored two goals on five shots in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Coyotes.
EDGE Analysis
It was a quiet game for Connor until the third period, but he more than made up for the slow start. The star winger broke a 3-3 tie 5:34 into the final frame and later sealed the win with an empty-netter. Connor's 32 goals in 53 games this season include 13 tallies in the past 20, so he's showing no signs of slowing down as he chases his first 40-goal campaign.

Connor registered a power-play goal in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
Connor blasted a one-timer for his 29th goal of the season -- only four skaters have more -- but the Jets still fell short against an Oilers team that has rattled off five straight wins under new bench boss Jay Woodcroft. The Jets will now embark on a four-game road trip, which is music to the ears of Connor's fantasy managers; just over 61 percent of his points this season have transpired outside of Winnipeg.
