From the state of Michigan, Kyle Connor naturally played his college hockey at the University of Michigan where he was one of the most decorated players in school history.

Connor was a First Round Pick (17thOverall) in 2015, and he signed with the Jets after finishing his career at Michigan.  Connor played in 20 Games as a rookie, but the American would break out with 31 Goals and 57 Points in 2017-18.  The Left Wing grew those totals to 34 and 38 Goals over the next two seasons, but in 2021/22, he took it to another level, accumulating 93 Points and 47 Goals.  Connor also went to his first All-Star Game last year, as well as capturing his first Lady Byng.  Two years ago, he had 80 Points, but had his best Assists numbers to date with 47.

As of this writing, Connor is set to begin his tenth year in Winnipeg, ans is doing so as the Jets' top offensive threat.
