Kyle Connor has scored 10 goals so far this season in just under 12 and a half games. He's officially on hat trick watch early in the second period and is making highlight reels aplenty this week.
Kyle Connor, my word. 3-1 #NHLJets on a high speed, outside in, backhand beauty.
Brilliant rush by Kyle Connor and he slides in the backhand for his 10th of the season. 3-1 #NHLJets That's pretty.
Kyle Connor puts one home early in the second. #Preds trail 2-1
2-1 #NHLJets, just 1:05 into the second period. Kyle Connor is left alone in the slot as Nashville double-teams Mark Scheifele down low. That's the sort of thing that works right into Scheifele's plans, so he centres to Connor, Connor makes his shot, and Jets fans celebrate.
