It would have been a great injustice if this had gone any other way.

Congrats, Kyle!

Nice work Kyle - people are starting to notice that you know hockey.
My favorite Jet since the day he was drafted - love the skill, how easy he makes it look, and how much he obviously loves playing the game.
And he's only going to get better . . . .

 

[SSC4me]

Hope this guy is a Jet forever

 

[Ggg99]

Amazing skill. Class and poise. Becoming a quiet leader. This award confirms him.

Slap a letter on this guy.

50+ is not a stretch for him next year, his D play also improved last year and even pk'ed.

When I hear Lady Byng, I think Gretzky............so quite a prestigious honor in my opinion.

I heard on NHL radio this morning that the only penalties Connor took was a slashing on McDavid and a hooking on Barzal. Connor must have been at the end of a long shift, was a little tired, and couldn't catch these guys.

Class guy, Jets are lucky to have him, doesn’t seem entitled like the two Jets forwards who wear letters!

 

[Jets 31]

Funny how his defensive game got better when he finally got moved away from Scheifele and Wheeler. Congratulations KFC glad you are signed for a long time.
