Dylan Guenther scored the go-ahead goal with 5:36 remaining in the third period and the visiting Utah Mammoth beat the Winnipeg Jets 3-2 for their seventh straight win.
After a puck battle in the right corner, Logan Cooley got to the loose puck and passed it behind his back to a charging Guenther, who beat Connor Hellebuyck with a one-timer from the right circle.
Mikhail Sergachev and Michael Carcone also scored for the Mammoth, who were playing the second of back-to-back games after a 6-2 win at the Minnesota Wild on Saturday. Vitek Vanecek made 28 saves.
Mark Scheifele scored his eighth goal of the season and Dylan DeMelo his first for the Jets, who have lost two of three after a five-game winning streak. Josh Morrissey had two assists, and Hellebuyck made 29 saves.
DeMelo gave the Jets a 1-0 lead 45 seconds into the second period when he took a pass from Morrissey and scored on a slap shot from the top of the right circle that went in off the far post.
Sergachev tied it 1-1 at 10:03 when he gained control of the puck off a face-off and fired a wrist shot past Hellebuyck from the slot during a power play.
Carcone gave the Mammoth a 2-1 lead just over a minute later. Kailer Yamamoto entered the zone on a 2-on-1 and passed across the slot to Carcone, who scored on a one-timer from the bottom of the right circle at 11:07.
Scheifele tied it 2-2 when he buried a wrist shot from the right circle off a pass from Morrissey on a power play at 15:09.
Morrissey recorded his 300th career assist on the goal and became the fifth player in Jets/Atlanta Thrashers history with that many.
Winnipeg’s comeback hopes were damaged late in the game when they were penalized for having too many men on the ice with 2:15 left in the third period.
