For the first time in his career, Connor was one of 36 players selected to participate in the 2022 NHL All-Star Game on Thursday. Connor was the only Jets player chosen, but Mark Scheifele could still be joining him at the festivities.

Four more players will be chosen by a fan vote as part of the NHL All-Star Last Men In and Scheifele is one of 32 players on the ballot.

The top vote-getter from each division will be added to the all-star roster.

Connor leads the Jets in goals and overall scoring with 19 tallies and 35 points in the first 33 games.

The last time there was an all-star game was in 2020, when the Jets were represented by Scheifele and Connor Hellebuyck.
