Kyle Connor, a player for the Winnipeg Jets, had several notable moments in recent NHL games. He missed a breakaway opportunity and a rebound, failed to capitalize on a chance after a pass from Alex Iafallo, and drew a hooking penalty. However, he redeemed himself by scoring his 14th goal of the season, leading the NHL in goals. Mark Scheifele assisted him in this achievement. Eric Comrie, former teammate of Connor, made a crucial save during the game.
Kyle Connor's league leading 14th goal might make Mark Scheifele's goal and two assists more of a narrative side dish than main course but Scheifele deserves lots of praise, too.
