Point tapped in a nifty backhand pass from Drouin from behind the net to give Tampa Bay a 1-0 lead at 12:05 of the first period. Drouin stole the puck from Winnipeg forward Blake Wheeler and worked his way around the zone before making a quick pass to Point in front.
"Picked Wheeler off there," Drouin said. "He came back at me, [Mark] Scheifele came. I just went wide with speed, and [Point] set at the net and the goalie kind of shifted the other way off the post, and [Point] just tapped it in."
Boyle made it 2-0 at 17:02 of the first when he tipped Hedman's point shot past Hellebuyck.
Palat beat Hellebuyck with a wrist shot to the short side to make it 3-0 at 2:11 of the second period.
"We were playing from behind, and that makes it tough," Wheeler said. "This league's too good, especially playing against this team. I think they were in the Eastern Conference [Final] last year. They know what they're doing. They're starting to build some momentum and gain some confidence. It's that time of year. Playing from behind against teams like that makes it really difficult."
Trouba scored to make it 3-1 at 11:15 of the third period, ending Bishop's bid for his second straight shutout. Dustin Byfuglien passed to Trouba moving in alone to Bishop's left, and Trouba's wrist shot went high to the short side.
Hedman scored into an empty net from center ice with 26 seconds remaining to make it 4-1.
Jets defenseman Toby Enstom left in the first period with a lower-body injury. There was no update after the game.
