WINNIPEG — Ryan Poehling had a goal and an assist to lead the Anaheim Ducks to a 4-1 victory over the Winnipeg Jets in front of 13,249 at Canada Life Centre on Tuesday.

Alex Killorn also registered a goal and an assist, with Tim Washe and Jackson LaCombe, into an empty net, rounding out the scoring for Anaheim. Lukas Dostal made 12 saves for the Ducks (36-25-3), who rebounded from a 4-0 loss to St. Louis on Sunday.

Morgan Barron scored the lone goal for Winnipeg. Connor Hellebuyck had 30 saves for the Jets (26-27-10), who saw their three-game win streak and six-game point streak (4-0-2) halted.

After a scoreless first period in which Anaheim outshot Winnipeg 8-2, the Jets opened the scoring at 5:04 of the second when Barron notched his eighth of the season, assisted by Elias Salomonsson and Cole Perfetti. The Ducks quickly flipped the script, scoring three times over a span of 104 seconds.

Washe tied the game at 6:24 and Poehling gave Anaheim the lead just 14 seconds later. Killorn added the insurance marker at 8:08 to give the visitors a two-goal lead.
