Jets star Kyle Connor has recorded three or more shots in seven of his past eight games while pacing the team in both shots (36) and attempts (53). He also ranks in the 98th percentile of forwards in shots on goal to start the year.

The Kings will still be without forward Warren Foegele, who remains out with an upper-body injury, and defensemen Kyle Burroughs, who was loaned to the Ontario Reign. For the Jets, they remain without forward Cole Perfetti, who has yet to make his season debut. The Jets will also be without Dylan Samberg (Wrist) and Gustav Nyquist (undisclosed).
