    Getting called up is opportunity one. Getting a real shot to produce is the opportunity he needs. Hopefully they give him that.

    The article I posted says he is playing with Little and Laine. That's a scoring line, plus he probably will be out there for a decent chunk of PP. It's a four-week audition.

    Saw it earlier today and love it. Let's go Kyle, show us that speed, those hands and THAT DEFENSIVE HUSTLE!

    I really look forward to seeing him in action. I think he's got something..

    His long term upside is great. but for this year only, would you give up labanc, schmaltz, vrana, bjorkstrand, or zacha for him?

    Long term Connor ranks higher than all of those listed right?

    Part of this is do you think he will play well enough in these next 4 weeks to stay up after perrault comes back?

    His biggest problem in pre-season was that he didn't capitalize on his offensive chances, so there was little to make up for any shortcomings. If he settles his brain a bit (let's face it, this guy can shoot and finish plays), he should be fine. The defense and hustle should come in time, if he's got the right attitude. If any of Scheifele and Wheeler's commitment rubs off on him, he'll be just fine.

    That was a nice goal last night despite the loss. I only saw the highlights, so maybe there was some line shuffling, since Wheeler and Scheifele fell well into the minus column, while Connor did not. He had top line ice time too. Lots to like from this one game for him.

    Ugly game defensively overall for the Jets. I don't care who's in net, you can't give up 39 shots and expect to win a game...

    For Vrana or Zacha maybe. The other two, no.

    I watched the first two periods and man, they hung Mason out to dry. He gave up one bad one but the other goals I saw were simply due to piss poor defensive coverage in their own end. Terrible game for the Jets defensively.

    How did Connor look in his own zone and on coverage?

    He didn't look bad suprisingly. The D on the other hand were killing the Jets. Turnovers in their own end and simply struggling to get the puck out.

    Lemme guess: Dustin Byfuglien and Tobias Enstrom...

    I'm glad Connor looked good. He has reportedly worked on it.. so keep at it baby!

    Tyler Myers was the worst of the bunch IMO. He and Enstrom.

    And he had so much promise.. I'll give him 1-15 games to shape up, since he missed pretty well all of last year, but let's hope injuries don't do to him what they did to Enstrom.

    Man, Kyle looked good tonight. Great pass to Wheeler for the win and played near 20 mins. Looked good. Keep it up!

    The minutes are what are really telling... they want to give him the opportunity to prove he should stay.. I'm encouraged
