The Winnipeg Jets (7-8-3) defeated the Tampa Bay Lightning (11-4-2) 4-3 on Sunday evening in Winnipeg.
The Jets took a 3-0 lead but the Lightning rallied to tie it thanks to a goal from Brandon Hagel and then two goals from Pontus Holmberg. It appeared this game would head to overtime tied 3-3, but Mark Scheifele scored on a 5-on-3 power play with 1.6 seconds to go in the third period to give the Jets the regulation win.
The Lightning are next in action when they travel to Buffalo to play the Sabres on Thursday night. Puck drop Thursday is scheduled for 7:00 PM in Buffalo.
