Winnipeg Jets left wing Kyle Connor scored twice during their 4-0 victory over the Dallas Stars on Thursday evening. Connor did all of his damage in the final frame. He scored both goals during 5-on-5 play. This was a critical victory for the Jets as they look to clinch the top spot in the Central Division. These two goals put him at the 40-goal mark for just the second time in his career. The other time he achieved this was in 2021 when he scored a career-high 47 goals. Over his last seven contests, Connor has tallied eight points, with three of them being goals. Through 79 total games this season, the 28-year-old has found the back of the net 40 times and added 54 helpers. He remains a must-start option and a top play in DFS tomorrow, facing the Chicago Blackhawks.

Winnipeg Jets left wing Kyle Connor (personal) is expected to remain in the lineup on Friday against the New Jersey Devils. He skipped practice on Thursday, creating uncertainty about his status. However, Jets head coach Scott Arniel told reporters that Connor missed practice because his wife had a baby on Wednesday. The Jets winger should be good to go for Friday's tilt and will look to end a mini scoring slump. Connor has not registered any points in back-to-back games. It has been a small blip during an otherwise highly successful campaign, as Connor has amassed 37 goals and 86 points in 72 games.
