The Vegas Golden Knights failed to build off the momentum from their biggest win of the season in a 4-1 loss to the Winnipeg Jets at Canada Life Centre on Tuesday.

Two days after the Knights (32-26-14) were rewarded with a much-needed win in Dallas, they opened the first period with the game’s first nine shots.

The Jets (30-29-12) capitalized with a one-time goal from leading scorer Kyle Connor with 2:35 left in the first period.

Winnipeg scored twice in 1:58 early in the second to take a 3-0 lead early in the middle frame.

Colton Sissons scored a power-play goal to give the second unit a third straight game with a goal, but the Knights couldn’t generate anything else offensively.

The Knights’ fourth-ranked power play finished 1 for 5

Adin Hill finished with 17 saves, as the Knights went 1-2 on their road trip.

The Knights had 13 shots in the first period and were held to 14 in the final two combined.
