PENTICTON, B.C. – Centre Danny Moynihan had the lone goal of the first period to give the Vancouver Canucks a 1-0 lead over the Winnipeg Jets at the Young Stars Classic NHL rookie tournament at the South Okanagan Events Centre Sunday afternoon

Winnipeg’s best scoring chance to tie the score came with five minutes left in the period when 2016 draft pick Jordy Stallard took a nice feed in the slot from 2015 first-rounder Kyle Connor before whistling the puck just wide of the net.
