Little scores twice, Hellebuyck solid as Jets beat Isles 4-2
NEW YORK — The well-rested and high-scoring Winnipeg Jets took advantage of a New York Islanders team that looked tired Thursday night.
Bryan Little scored twice, Connor Hellebuyck made 27 saves and the Jets beat the Islanders 4-2 to snap a four-game skid.
Mathieu Perreault and Adam Lowry also scored for the Jets, who had their game Tuesday in Newark, New Jersey, against the Devils postponed because of a snowstorm.
Little scored twice in the first period after Islanders defenceman Adam Pelech opened the scoring 38 seconds in. Perreault and Lowry each scored in the second.
