Connor scored a goal on two shots and went plus-2 in Monday's 2-1 win over the Blues in Game 2.
The Jets' top line again handled the offense, with Connor scoring the decisive goal 1:43 into the third period. He has four points, seven shots on net and a plus-4 rating through the first two playoff contests.

Only two of those scoreless stretches have come since the start of January.

Rotowire

Jets' Kyle Connor: Posts two points Sunday
Rotowire
Connor recorded a goal, an assist, three shots on goal and a plus-1 rating in Sunday's 3-1 win over the Canucks.
Connor tied the game at 1-1 at 9:26 of the second period with a wrist shot that split the two Vancouver defensemen, and he would later assisted on Cole Perfetti's goal in the third period to close out the scoring. Connor has been one of the best players for Winnipeg this season, and he'd make a strong case to be the team's best player if it weren't for goaltender Connor Hellebuyck. The 28-year-old Connor is having an excellent season and reached the 90-point plateau just for the second time in his nine-year career. He's only three points away from matching the best point total of his career, established in 2021-22, something he could very well accomplish since the Jets still have eight games left in the regular season.

Rotowire
Connor supplied two assists and went plus-2 in Friday's 4-0 win over the Devils.

Connor's gone scoreless in four of 13 games in March, but he has multiple points in five other contests this month for a total of six goals and nine assists. For the season, he's at 88 points, including a career-high 51 helpers, and he's added 237 shots on net, 42 blocked shots and a plus-15 rating through 73 outings.

Jets' Kyle Connor: Absent from practice
Rotowire
Connor wasn't at practice Thursday to attend to a family matter, John Lu of TSN reports.
Connor's absence from practice raises doubts regarding his availability to face the Devils on Friday, though the team hasn't provided a more concrete update. If Connor were to miss out, it would likely mean a promotion to the top line for either Nikolaj Ehlers or Mason Appleton. For his part, the 28-year-old Connor needs three more goals to reach the 40-goal threshold for only the second time in his nine-year NHL career.

Rotowire
Connor recorded two goals, an assist, four shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Friday's 4-1 win over the Stars.

Jets' Kyle Connor: Notches two points in win
Rotowire
Connor tallied a goal, registered a power-play assist, posted two shots on net and blocked two shots in Sunday's 6-1 win against New Jersey.
Connor had an all-around performance Friday with a secondary helper on a power-play goal before finding the back of the net with less than six minutes left in the third period. The 28-year-old left winger has 33 goals, 47 assists and 210 shots on goal in 64 appearances this season. Connor has been one of the league's best forwards in 2024-25 and currently ranks fourth in points with 80. He has 13 points over his last nine outings and a four-game point streak. Connor's career high of 93 points is well within reach if he can remain above his point-per-game pace. He holds elite fantasy value as the Jets try to secure the top spot in the Central Division.

Rotowire

Jets' Kyle Connor: Sends helper in shootout win
Rotowire
Connor registered an assist and 10 shots on goal in Saturday's 4-3 shootout win over the Blues.
Connor accounted for over one-third of the Jets' 28 shots on net in the contest. Clearly, he was fired up after being scratched by Team USA for the championship game of the 4 Nations Face-Off. While he didn't cash in during regulation or overtime, he had the lone tally in the shootout to secure the win. The winger has four goals and six helpers over his last seven outings, and he's up to 70 points (30 goals, 40 assists), 187 shots on net and a plus-9 rating through 57 appearances. This is the fourth time Connor has reached the 70-point mark, and he's within striking distance of his career-high 93-point campaign from 2021-22 at his current pace.
Connor logged two assists, four shots on gal and two hits in Friday's 4-3 win over the Islanders.
Connor has earned four goals and five assists over his last six outings. The 28-year-old winger helped out on both of Gabriel Vilardi's tallies in this contest. Connor is up to 69 points (30 goals, 39 assists), 177 shots on net and a plus-8 rating across 56 appearances. He's the Jets' leading scorer and has a good chance of besting his career-high 93 points from the 2021-22 campaign.
