I recently posted about how I thought with all eyes being on Patrik Laine and Mark Scheifele that Connor would slip in under the radar and produce quietly, but consistently. I pegged him, in his rookie year, to notch about 12-15 goals and about 40-45 points. I guess not.In spite of that, I can't say I didn't see this coming. With Connor only producing one goal and three assists this season thus far, and being a healthy scratch for the last five games, Connor was due for a short-term change of scenery,
Connor is a talented kid. Give him about 10-15 games down on the farm and he'll be back...or not.
