Mark Scheifele scored two goals to help the Winnipeg Jets end an 11-game winless streak with a 5-1 win against the visiting Los Angeles Kings on Friday night.

It was the longest winless streak for the Jets since they moved to Winnipeg from Atlanta in 2011.

Vladislav Namestnikov, Cole Koepke and Jonathan Toews also scored; Gabriel Vilardi and Cole Perfetti had two assists each; and Eric Comrie made 23 saves for the Jets, who were 0-7-4 in their previous 11 games.

For Los Angeles, Quinton Byfield scored and Darcy Kuemper made 11 saves on 16 shots before he was replaced at the start of the third by Anton Forsberg, who stopped all three shots he faced. The Kings have lost two in a row and 10 of 14 (4-7-3).

Logan Stanley took a one-timer from the left point that was tipped into the net by Namestnikov for a 1-0 lead at 1:31 of the first period.

Winnipeg extended its lead to 2-0 at 18:05 of the first when Koepke scored with a one-timer from the right circle.

A shot from Jets defenseman Colin Miller went off the skate of Kings forward Alex Laferriere, off the post and then behind Kuemper. Toews skated in and slapped the puck into the net for a 3-0 lead at 2:07 of the second period.

Byfield was credited with a goal after a shot off the rush by Warren Foegele was tipped by Taylor Ward and off the skate of Byfield, and then into the net to cut it to 3-1 at 9:32 of the second.

Winnipeg challenged for goaltender interference on Byfield, but the goal was upheld after a video review, resulting in a delay of game penalty on the Jets.

Winnipeg killed the penalty and then scored twice more before the end of the period.

Scheifele’s pass from below the goal line went off the skate of Byfield and into his own net while on a power play to make it 4-1 at 12:35.

Scheifele then scored with a one-timer from the left circle to extend the lead to 5-1 with 43 seconds left.
