Bryan Little scored the go-ahead goal with 2:09 left in the third period as the Winnipeg Jets opened their six-game homestand with a 3-1 victory over the Carolina Hurricanes Sunday night at Bell MTS Place.
All the scoring took place in the final 20 minutes.
Patrik Laine's power play marker gave the Jets a 1-0 lead when he one-timed a slapshot past Hurricanes netminder Petr Mzarek at 4:14.
Michael Ferland potted the equalizer at 7:53.
Little notched his first of the season as he took a pass from Josh Morrisey in the slot and beat Mzarek high on the glove side with just over two minutes left.
Kyle Connor added an empty-net goal with one second remaining in regulation.
Winnipeg goaltender Laurent Brossoit made 42 saves.
Defenseman Dustin Byfuglien did not play because of an upper-body injury.
The Jets (3-2-0) second of six straight home games is Tuesday against the Edmonton Oilers.
