Juraj Slafkovsky and Oliver Kapanen had goals in regulation as Montreal snapped a two-game skid, including a 5-2 loss to the Ottawa Senators on Tuesday. Jakub Dobes stopped 29 shots and all three shootout attempts. Mark Scheifele and Kyle Connor had a goal and an assist each for Winnipeg, which lost for the sixth time in seven games to end a five-game road trip. Eric Comrie made 29 saves -- including multiple desperation stops -- after being pulled in Monday's 5-1 loss to the Buffalo Sabres. Comrie was solid in his fifth start since Connor Hellebuyck's minor knee surgery on Nov. 22. Neal Pionk returned for the Jets after missing four games with a lower-body injury.
