    Penguins' Drew O'Connor: Scores in Friday's loss

    Drew O'Connor scored a goal in Friday's 4-1 loss to the Hurricanes.O'Connor opened the scoring for the Pittsburgh Penguins midway through the first period, but the Hurricanes would score four unanswered goals to flip the script entirely. O'Connor has recorded points in back-to-back games for the first time this season, and he's found the back of the net three times over his last five appearances, providing solid numbers for a middle-six forward. O'Connor is coming off a career-best campaign in 2023-24 after posting 16 goals and 33 points across 79 regular-season outings.

    Penguins' Drew O'Connor: Racks up two points Wednesday

    Drew O'Connor scored a shorthanded goal and added an assist in Wednesday's 6-5 overtime win over the Sabres.O'Connor's two points helped the Pittsburgh Penguins erase a 3-1 deficit in the second period. He's received some top-six looks but has spent time on the third line as well, which isn't ideal for his offense given the Penguins' shaky depth. O'Connor has three points, seven shots on net, four hits and five blocked shots over five appearances and will have a lower ceiling as long as he remains out of contention for a power-play role.

    Penguins' Drew O'Connor: Tickles twine in win

    Drew O'Connor scored a goal on three shots in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Red Wings.O'Connor put the Pittsburgh Penguins ahead 3-1 in the second period. He played on the second line in this contest after earning a spot on Sidney Crosby's wing versus the Rangers on Opening Night. O'Connor emerged as a useful complementary forward last year with 33 points, 160 shots on net and a plus-14 rating in 79 appearances. The 26-year-old will have fantasy appeal in deeper formats as long as he stays in the top six, but that's no guarantee once Bryan Rust (lower body) returns from injured reserve.

Unless the Pittsburgh Penguins add a top-six winger in free agency, O'Connor should start 2024-25 in a top-six role.
