Connor enjoying life with linemate Little
JOHN WOODS / WINNIPEG FREE PRESS FILESKyle Connor is enjoying his ride-along with veteran centre Bryan Little since the Winnipeg Jets players were paired on the team's second forward line about a month ago.
Connor scored a pair of goals Tuesday in a 6-3 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks and had 13 goals and 15 assists in 30 games prior to Thursday's big test against the rejuvenated Edmonton Oilers.
Although Connor had just one goal in the 10 games prior to his stellar effort against Chicago, he still put up some points, including a four-assist night on linemate Patrik Laine's five-goal explosion against the St. Louis Blues on Nov. 24.
