PHILADELPHIA -- A rare morning start didnt bother the Flyers, who jumped out over a sluggish Jets team that couldnt get going until it was too late. The Jets didnt just lose the game. Evander Kane left the game in the second period and did not return. He sustained a lower body injury in the first period during a collision with Braydon Coburn. Scott Hartnell opened the scoring 48 seconds in and Steve Mason stopped all but one shot as Philadelphia skated to a 2-1 victory over Winnipeg on Friday. As soon as he got the ice for his first shift, Hartnell found an unattended puck in front of the Jets net and immediately slapped it past Ondrej Pavelec to put the Flyers up, 1-0. "I just shot it as hard as I could," Hartnell said. "Ill take it. Its nice on your first shift, right in the slot theres a little present waiting for you there." Mason turned away 25 shots in the matinee that began at 11:30 a.m., including an impressive pad save on Matt Halischuk on a 2-on-1 chance in the second period. He improved to 3-0-1 in his career against the Jets (12-12-4). The Flyers (11-12-2) won their fifth straight game at home after dropping their previous two on the road at Florida and Tampa Bay. "Its huge," Mason said. "Our Florida effort was terrible. Both games were lacklustre, so to come home and get a big win before we go on the road for (12) days is a step in the right direction." Both Flyers goals came off Winnipeg turnovers. Hartnells score was the Flyers lone goal in a dominating opening period in which they outshot the Jets 13-2. "Morning game, obviously the first period was one where we werent engaged in the game," Winnipeg coach Claude Noel said. "You dont know what to expect. ... Obviously it wasnt a great situation." Sean Couturier had a short-handed breakaway opportunity in the first period that Pavelec stopped with a right pad save. But in the second he once again forced a Jets turnover on the penalty kill, this time beating Pavelec on a breakaway for his second goal of the year. Couturier also played a big role on the Flyers penalty kill that held the Jets without a goal in six power-play opportunities. "I was really impressed with (Couturiers) effort," Mason said. "He stepped up his game." Michael Frolik finally put the Jets on the scoreboard with 7:07 left in the third when he slipped one by Mason in front of a crowded net. Peppered with 34 shots, Pavelec made 32 saves but fell to 7-4-1 lifetime against the Flyers. The Flyers, who entered with a power-play goal in eight consecutive games, also failed to score on four tries. They opened the second period with 1:25 of 5-on-3 time but couldnt manage a shot while up two men. Philadelphia has yet to score a 5-on-3 goal this season. "The 5-on-3 wasnt good," coach Craig Berube said. "Got to execute better and come up together. You cant be dumping (the puck) in on a 5-on-3. You got to do a better job. They know that." The loss snapped Winnipegs five-game winning streak against Eastern Conference teams and was just its second defeat in Philadelphia in eight games. "We just werent very good," Noel said. "Was that an early morning game? I dont know. That would be a poor excuse, because theyre ready to play." The win was an important one for the Flyers, who are 7-2-1 in their last 10 games, but begin a six-game road trip Saturday night in Nashville. "Flying up to Canada, down south in Texas, were gonna have to get our rest and do the right things," Hartnell said. "Weve played solid on the road except for our last two games, and weve got to continue that and make this the best road trip of the year." NOTES: Flyers captain Claude Girouxs points streak ended at six games. ... Fridays meeting was the second of two between the teams this season.
