NHL pre-season: Rookie Kyle Connor pushes Jets over Senators

Highly touted rookie forward Kyle Connor scored the deciding goal on the power play as the Winnipeg Jets won their fourth straight exhibition game with a 4-2 victory over the Ottawa Senators on Monday.

Connor, a finalist for the Hobey Baker award while with the University of Michigan last season, broke a 2-2 tie at 7:02 of the third period when his high shot from the side of the net glanced off goalie Andrew Hammond. It was Connor's third goal of the pre-season.

Nikolaj Ehlers was credited with an empty-net goal with five seconds left in the game when he was tripped up on a breakaway.

It was Winnipeg's (4-1-0) ninth power-play goal out of the 17 times they've scored this pre-season.

Coyotes 4, Canucks 2

Oliver Ekman-Larsson scored the winner on the power play in the second period as the Arizona Coyotes picked up a 4-2 pre-season victory over the Vancouver Canucks.
