Connor scored the game-winning goal in Tuesday's 4-2 win against the Blues.
EDGE Analysis
Connor lit the lamp for the fourth time this season, but it was his first marker since Oct. 14 to snap a three-game goal drought. He finished with a plus-1 rating and a shot on goal in 18:56 of ice time. Connor is averaging a point-per-game through six outings, and he'll look to keep that going Thursday against the Red Wings.

Connor registered an assist and three shots on goal in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
Connor had the secondary helper on Mark Scheifele's tally in overtime. Through five contests, Connor has racked up three goals, two helpers and 23 shots on net, though he also has a minus-4 rating. The 26-year-old remains one of the Jets' most important forwards, providing strong offense in a top-line role.

Connor scored two goals on a game-high seven shots, one into an empty net, and added a power-play assist in Saturday's 6-4 win over the Panthers.
EDGE Analysis
After helping set up Mark Scheifele for the afternoon's opening tally early in the first period, Connor lit the lamp himself in the second and third. The 26-year-old has five 30-goal seasons on his resume and has never failed to reach that mark in a season during which he's played at least 70 games, and with three goals and four points in his first two contests in 2023-24, Connor's well on his way to keeping that streak alive.

EDGE Analysis
Connor's goal came with 5:38 left in the third period, breaking up Laurent Brossoit's shutout bid.

The 26-year-old winger had 32 tallies and 49 assists over 82 regular-season contests and remains one of the most efficient scorers on the Jets' roster.
