Like most coaches, the Winnipeg Jets' Paul Maurice realizes the key to beating the Philadelphia Flyers rests with containing Jakub Voracek and Claude Giroux.

That could prove difficult after the pair's latest showing.

Winnipeg seeks a season high-tying third consecutive victory as it completes a four-game homestand against Philadelphia on Sunday night.

The Jets (17-10-6) have continued to pick up points recently by going 7-1-3 over their last 11. They've been especially solid over the last two, beating Buffalo 5-1 on Tuesday before Friday's 2-1 victory over Boston.

Evander Kane scored in the first period as Winnipeg held a 16-4 shot advantage over the Bruins, and Mathieu Perrault got the winner with 23 seconds remaining in the second.

Defenseman Jay Harrison was acquired from Carolina for a sixth-round draft pick Thursday and didn't arrive in town in time for the morning skate, but he played more than 20 minutes and picked up an assist on his first shift.

"The more times you go over the boards, the easier it gets because you get into a nice routine and rhythm," Harrison said. "There's less thinking and more playing."

Maurice has done plenty of thinking about how the Jets are going to handle the Flyers' offensive attack. Voracek had four assists to take over the NHL points lead and Giroux had two goals and two assists in Saturday's 7-4 win over Toronto.

"They've got three or four guys up front with great speed and skill, a couple guys with world-class talent and depth through their lineup," Maurice said. "Lots of speed. It will be quite a tilt."

Voracek, who has 42 points, also leads the league with 28 assists, while Giroux sits three points back of his teammate in the scoring race.

"He can play better," Giroux joked when asked about Voracek's pace. "Obviously his points look good, but defensively he's playing very well. That's one of the reasons why our line gets so many scoring chances. It makes my job a lot easier and I'm lucky to play with him. At the same time, we've got to keep going."

Philadelphia (12-14-6) had dropped back-to-back contests before kicking off an eight-game trip in Toronto. The Flyers have struggled away from home with a 4-9-3 mark but are 2-0-2 in their last four.

"It was a good way to start it off with two points," Giroux said. "Our record's not very good on the road, but if you look at our last five games, we've played very well but we kind of found a way to lose (some) games. We need to stay focused on how we play and hopefully the win is the start of a good road trip."

Ray Emery made 21 saves in place of Steve Mason, who also will sit out this contest with an upper-body injury he suffered in practice Friday. If coach Craig Berube elects not to start Emery in back-to-back contests, Rob Zepp will get the nod.

Zepp, a 33-year-old who has never started an NHL game, was called up from the minors after Mason went down. He has a 2.70 goals-against average in 17 AHL games this season.

The Jets are likely to go back to Ondrej Pavelec in net after Michael Hutchinson stopped 30 shots Friday. Pavelec is 3-0-2 with a 2.16 GAA in his last five starts and 2-1-0 with a 1.64 GAA in his last three against the Flyers.
