WINNIPEG - It was just the third period the Winnipeg Jets needed.
Tied 1-1 with the Vancouver Canucks through 40 minutes - and after learning a tough lesson just two nights earlier against the Edmonton Oilers - the Jets made sure the outcome on Thursday night would be different.
The Jets scored three unanswered goals in the final 20 minutes to seal a 4-1 win over the Canucks, improving the Jets record to 4-2-1.
"It was kind of the opposite of last game. We did a good job of getting better throughout the game and the third period was our best," said Bryan Little, who finished with the eventual game winner, his second in three games. "It was a good response by us."
