WINNIPEG, Manitoba (AP) — Mark Scheifele had a goal and two assists — and a rare fighting major in the second period — to lead the Winnipeg Jets to a 4-1 victory over the Vegas Golden Knights on Tuesday night.
Kyle Connor, Alex Iafallo and Cole Perfetti also scored for Winnipeg, which snapped a five-game home skid against Vegas.
Connor Hellebuyck made 26 saves to snap his six-game winless streak against the Golden Knights.
Colton Sissons scored the lone goal on the power play for Vegas. Adin Hill stopped 17 shots.
Scheifele dropped the gloves with Brett Howden late in the second period in just his 10th career fight in his 15th NHL season. Scheifele capped the scoring for the Jets with his 32nd goal, an empty-netter with 1:18 left.
Early in the second period, Iafallo and Perfetti scored just 118 seconds apart, giving the Jets a commanding 3-0 lead.
Sissons made it 3-1 in the second when he scored on the power play, the third straight game in which Vegas converted with the man-advantage.
Connor’s first-period goal gave him a point in 30 home games, extending his NHL-leading mark for the most home games with at least one point this season.
Golden Knights: Start a four-game homestand against Edmonton on Thursday.
Jets: Host Colorado on Thursday.
