Edmonton's Connor McDavid had a third-period assist to extend his season-opening point streak to 15 games.

The Jets took a quick 1-0 lead at 2:09 of the first period when Lowry forced a turnover at center ice, carried it in and beat Koskinen with a wrist shot from above the right circle.

Ehlers went far side with a slap shot from the top of the left circle to give the Jets a 2-0 lead at 6:59 of the second period.

The teams play again Thursday in Edmonton.
