Connor scored a power-play goal on four shots in Monday's 4-2 loss to Ottawa.
EDGE Analysis
The 24-year-old opened the scoring five minutes into the game with a rocket of a one-timer from the right faceoff dot. It was his team-leading 19th goal of the season, but his first power-play tally in nearly a month. Connor hit the 40-point mark with his goal and will have a chance to build on that total in Wednesday's rematch with the Senators.

Connor had two assists and two shots Thursday in a 4-2 win over Montreal.
EDGE Analysis
Connor set up Nikolaj Ehlers' game-winner in the second period and Andrew Copp's empty-netter in the final minute of regulation. Connor has reached the scoresheet in six of his last seven games, but he's struggled to find the back of the net in recent weeks with just two goals in his last 11.

Connor scored a goal on four shots and added a power-play assist in Friday's 3-2 win over the Flames.
EDGE Analysis
Connor had a hand in the Jets' first goal, then scored their second tally at 5:33 of the second period. The winger entered Friday with just one assist in his last four games, so he was due for a better showing. Through 34 appearances, Connor has 17 goals, 32 points (10 on the power play), 107 shots on net and a minus-1 rating.

Connor scored a pair of goals and led all players with seven shots in a 4-3 overtime win over Montreal on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Connor gave the Jets a 2-0 lead late in the first period, jumping on a loose puck at the side of crease and sliding it into a wide-open net, then he cashed in a rebound in the second period to make it a 3-1 game. They were the team-leading 15th and 16th tallies of the year for Connor, who is well on his way to a fourth consecutive 20-goal campaign despite the abbreviated NHL schedule.

Connor scored a power-play goal on three shots and added two assists in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Canucks.
EDGE Analysis
Connor's second-period tally ended up standing as the game-winner Tuesday. The 24-year-old winger has found twine 11 times in 22 contests to go with 11 helpers, 70 shots on net and an even plus-minus rating. Six of his goals have come on the power play, where he sees top-unit usage. Connor isn't likely to slow down on offense -- he's a reliable fantasy option, as his longest point drought this year is only three games.

Connor notched an assist and three shots on goal in Saturday's 2-1 overtime win over the Canadiens.
EDGE Analysis
The Jets deployed three forwards to begin overtime, and the plan worked. Connor got the puck to Nikolaj Ehlers, who set up Paul Stastny for the decisive tally. Through 20 games, Connor has a strong 10 goals, nine assists, 60 shots on net and an even plus-minus rating. He topped a point-per-game pace with 73 points in 71 outings last year, so this is standard production for the 24-year-old Connor.
