Connor Hellebuyck turned away 24 shots, and both Kyle Connor and Mark Scheifele scored their 29th goals of the season to put them into second place in the goal-scoring race during the Winnipeg Jets' 4-1 victory over the Montreal Canadiens.

Kyle Connor scored twice and Gabriel Vilardi added two assists as the Winnipeg Jets won their fourth straight game by posting a 4-1 victory over the host Montreal Canadiens on Tuesday night.

Scheifele and Gabriel Vilardi worked a give-and-go to give Winnipeg its first lead of the game, which turned out to be the game-winner. It was the second straight outing with a goal for Scheifele, who's on a point-per-game pace in January with 13 points (seven goals, six assists) over 13 contests.

Scheifele, Connor, Vilardi combine for five points in 4-1 win

The Winnipeg Jets visit the Boston Bruins after Kyle Connor scored two goals in the Jets' 4-1 win over the Montreal Canadiens.

Tage Thompson and JJ Peterka each had a hat trick and an assist to lead the Buffalo Sabres to a 7-2 win against the Boston Bruins on Tuesday night. Thompson and Peterka became the first pair to score a hat trick in the same game for the Sabres since 2008.

They are answering those questions on the fly, as Tuesday evening’s 4-1 win over the Montreal Canadiens marked the Jets’ fourth straight win, this one kicking off a three-game east coast road trip, and Winnipeg’s top players drove them to victory.
