Kyle Connor #81 of the Winnipeg Jets

In Sunday’s match against the Arizona Coyotes, the Winnipeg Jets secured a 4-3 victory, with Kyle Connor clinching the winning goal during overtime, marking his ninth such decisive goal. With this achievement, Connor now shares second place in Jets-Thrashers history for overtime wins with Ilya Kovalchuk.

Connor showcased his prowess by netting two goals in the game, narrowing the Jets’ trailing margin behind the Dallas Stars to just one point in the Central Division. His precise shot, akin to a laser, left Connor Ingram helpless in the Coyotes’ net.

Meanwhile, Mark Scheifele contributed significantly to the win, amassing four points, including one goal and three assists, boosting his season tally to 51 points across 50 games.

Despite missing 16 games due to a knee injury, Connor has made a significant impact, tallying 40 points in 40 games, with 23 goals, making him the leading scorer for the Jets. If he had participated in all 56 games, simple calculations suggest he would have lit the lamp 32 times.

Extrapolating this over a full 82-game season, Connor’s projected goal tally would stand at 47, matching his highest career total achieved during the 2021-22 campaign.

The Jets will resume play on Tuesday as they host the Blues in Winnipeg.
