2023 Fantasy Outlook
O'Connor is nothing if not consistent. His numbers in his second full NHL season (nine goals, 26 points, plus-11, 116 hits, 50 blocked shots in 82 games) were eerily similar to what we saw from him a year prior (eight goals, 24 points, plus-10, 100 hits, 59 blocks in 81 games). Everything we have seen the past couple years suggests O'Connor is a favorite of the Colorado coaching staff and his role as a regular in the Avalanche lineup is safe, but he's going to fill a bottom-six gig in the process, one that leads to minimal fantasy value. Look elsewhere on draft day. Read Past Outlooks

Recovering well from surgery

O'Connor (hip surgery) is expected to be ready for the start of training camp, according to Corey Masisak of The Denver Post.
ANALYSIS
O'Connor underwent surgery in March and missed the rest of the season. O'Connor had 13 goals and 25 points in 57 appearances for the Avalanche, giving them secondary scoring from an unexpected source, as his previous career high was nine goals in 82 games during the 2022-23 campaign. Look for O'Connor to compete for a spot on the third line in 2024-25.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Gets opportunity on first line
RWColorado Avalanche
November 15, 2021
O'Connor will slide up to the top line in the wake of injuries to Nathan MacKinnon and J.T. Compher, Rick Sadowski of NHL.com reports.
ANALYSIS
With two of the team's top three centers on the mend, Mikko Rantanen will slide from wing to center and O'Connor will be promoted to the top line alongside Rantanen and Gabriel Landeskog. Coach Jared Bednar said O'Connor has earned this opportunity, praising the 25-year-old winger's work ethic.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2022
2020
O'Connor seized a full-time role for the Avalanche in 2021-22 and immediately became an important depth player for the team. He played in 81 of the club's 82 regular-season games, posting eight goals, 24 points, 100 hits and 59 blocks. Those aren't numbers that will help you win your fantasy championship, but O'Connor, at age 26, has proven to be an ideal bottom-six forward for a top-tier team that is always operating right near the salary cap. The Texan has three years remaining on his contract at a cap hit of a shade over $1 million.
O'Connor opened his NHL account with a pair of goals in 16 appearances for the Avalanche in 2019-20. The undrafted 24-year-old forward also had 25 points in 40 contests with AHL Colorado. O'Connor will be in the mix for a bottom-six job entering 2020-21, but he'd have to outplay Matt Calvert or Pierre-Edouard Bellemare to have a realistic chance at an everyday job. More than likely, O'Connor will end up on the Avalanche's taxi squad, which will limit his opportunities to get ice time at the NHL level. The Texas native is probably a couple years away from getting a longer look with the big club.
