A turnover in the neutral zone led to a goal by Little at 6:39 of the third period that narrowed the lead to 5-4. But Rowney made it 6-4 on a breakaway at 16:12, and scored into an empty net with three seconds left for the 7-4 final.
"It was going back and forth a little more than we wanted it to," Ehlers said. "They got some easy chances and scored on them."
The Jets took a 1-0 lead 55 seconds into the first period on a goal by Ehlers set up by a long stretch pass from defenseman Tucker Poolman.
Fowler tied the score at 1-1 at 10:01, his 61st goal with Anaheim, moving him past

for the Ducks' all-time record by a defenseman. Fowler gave up the puck as he came through the neutral zone, got it back as he crossed the blue line and then scored with a wrist shot from the right circle.
"There was a couple [shots] that I didn't even see," Hellebuyck said. "I liked a lot of my game, just a little bit off."
The Jets regained the lead after Gibson tried to pass the puck out from behind his net, but it went off the blade of defenseman Jacob Larsson and directly to Wheeler, who scored into the open net at 12:02 of the first period to make it 2-1.
"Our first period looked like a first period you get coming off these long road trips," Eakins said. "You try to do different things to get better starts, and we were in the mud. But I thought the group really challenged themselves coming out for the second period."
