He is tied for first on the Jets for points with 59 and leads the team in goals (28) and this week the Michigan man was doing quite a bit of that which earned him 2nd Star of the Week honours from the NHL.

Connor led the NHL with eight points (3G, 5A) this week to help Winnipeg to a 3-0-1 record as the club’s point streak reached five games (4-0-1).

This is the third time in his career he has been a Star of the Week.  He completes the trifecta as he was 1st Star last season and a 3rd Star two seasons ago.
