Kyle Connor and Patrick Laine fired power-play goals early in the third period to propel the Winnipeg Jets to a 7-4 victory over the visiting Vegas Golden Knights on Friday night.
Laine set up Connor with a pretty pass to the slot and the rookie winger scored his eighth of the year just 33 seconds into final frame to snap a 2-2 tie. Just over two minutes later, Laine netted his 12th of the year and first in five games, unleashing a hard wrist shot that glanced off a Vegas defender and beat goalie Maxime Lagace high.
