Connor notched an assist against the Rangers on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Despite a six-game goal drought, Connor has found ways to contribute offensively with three helpers over that stretch. The winger continues to see minutes on the power play, 3:54 of ice time per game in his last 15 contests, even though he hasn't recorded a point with the man advantage during that stretch. If the Michigan native doesn't start tickling the twine soon, he could find himself down on the second line in favor of Patrik Laine.

Connor scored two goals in Tuesday's 4-3 shootout win over Boston.
EDGE Analysis
One of the goals came on a power play, giving Connor eight PP goals in 2018-19. With 21 goals and 40 points through 50 games, the 22-year-old has more than had himself a solid sophomore season and figures to be one of Winnipeg's most important players come playoff time.

Connor registered a goal in Sunday's 5-1 victory over the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
Connor -- who picked up a loose puck in front of the net and fired it past Ben Bishop -- ended a 10-game pointless streak with his tally. The winger continues to log big minutes (18:54 on the year) despite his slump and hold down a spot on the top power-play unit. If he stays on the No. 1 line with Mark Scheifele and Blake Wheeler, Connor could still challenge for the 60-point mark this season.

Connor scored a goal and an assist in Wednesday's 3-1 win over the Capitals.
EDGE Analysis
The helper came with the man advantage, his sixth power-play point already this season, while the goal was an empty-netter that iced the victory. Connor has been remarkably consistent so far in his second full NHL campaign -- he's only been held off the scoresheet five times in 16 games, leading him to seven goals and 13 points.

Connor snagged an assist in Sunday's win versus the Devils.
EDGE Analysis
Despite being bounced from his first-line assignment, Connor has continued to produce, as he has four points in his previous six outings. During his hot streak, the winger is putting plenty of pucks on net, as he has 14 shots in those half dozen contests. On the year, the Michigan native is logging 18:47 of ice time per game -- including 3:05 with the man advantage -- and should continue to see big minutes throughout the year regardless of what role he is filling.

Connor tallied an assist in Wednesday's 4-2 loss to the Maple Leafs.
EDGE Analysis
The 21-year-old now has nine points in 10 games and four in his last three. Connor is coming off an eye-opening 57-point campaign a season ago and considering the amount of ice time he's gotten, specifically on the power play, it's fair to expect him to at least duplicate last season's production.

EDGE Analysis

Connor (neck) will be in the lineup against the Devils on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Thursday's contest is the Jets final preseason outing, so it should be filed primarily with guys that will make the 23-man roster. Connor figures to slot into his top-line role alongside Mark Scheifele and Blake Wheeler, which could set him up to best his career highs from last season (31 goals and 26 assists).
