Winnipeg Jets forward Mark Scheifele notched a hat trick as part of a 4-2 road win over the New York Rangers on Tuesday. The Jets captain opened the scoring 4:04 into the second period and notched his second of the game with 2:05 to go in the middle frame. He could complete the hat trick, the eighth of his career, on an empty-netter to seal the win with just nine seconds remaining. With the performance, Scheifele has now registered 22 goals and 62 points across 61 games on the season. He also fired a hefty seven shots on goal Tuesday, giving him 134 on the campaign. The Jets sit atop the Central Division with a 44-19-5 record on the season.
Winnipeg Jets center Mark Scheifele (illness) will return to the lineup on Friday when the team hosts the Anaheim Ducks. The Jets captain missed Wednesday's 4-2 loss to the Nashville Predators due to an illness. "I feel 100 percent now," Scheifele said after Friday's morning skate. The 31-year-old will play on his birthday on Friday. He has recorded 19 goals and 57 points across 58 games on the season. He has added 124 shots on goal and is a healthy plus-20 on the campaign, his 13th in the NHL. The Jets sit third in the Central Division with a 41-19-5 record, but they have multiple games in hand on both the second-place Dallas Stars (three) and first-place Colorado Avalanche (two).
Winnipeg Jets center Mark Scheifele (illness) is expected to return Friday against the Anaheim Ducks. Scheifele was a last-minute scratch on Wednesday due to an illness, but he is already feeling better and should play on Friday if things keep trending in the right direction. The Jets' top centerman has 57 points (19 goals, 38 assists) in 58 games in what has been a nice bounce-back season after a tough 2022-23 campaign. If he returns Friday he should immediately be slotted back into fantasy lineups.
Mark Scheifele Records Four Points In Sunday's Win
Winnipeg Jets center Mark Scheifele picked up four points in Sunday's narrow 4-3 overtime victory against Arizona. He did most of the damage in the first period, opening the scoring and delivering two power-play assists. Scheifele became the fifth player in franchise history to record at least five three-point periods. He completed his four-point effort with an even-strength assist early in overtime. Scheifele now boasts two four-point performances in his last five appearances. Strangely, he has gone without a single point between the monster efforts. However, fantasy managers shouldn't complain, as Scheifele is back to averaging over a point per game, having posted 17 goals and 34 assists in 50 outings this season.
Winnipeg Jets center Mark Scheifele will return to the lineup when the team takes on the Pittsburgh Penguins on the road on Tuesday. The veteran has missed the past six games after sustaining a lower-body injury in a 2-1 win over the visiting Chicago Blackhawks on Jan. 11. Scheifele has had additional time to heal given the team's recent bye week and All-Star break, keeping them out of action since Jan. 27. "The All-Star break came at a good time, so it was nice to get some rest and be ready to rock come Tuesday," Scheifele said. The Jets went 2-3-1 in his absence and have lost three straight overall. The 30-year-old has 14 goals and leads the team with 41 points across 41 games on the season. The Jets sit third in the Central Division with a 30-12-5 record on the season.
Winnipeg Jets forward Mark Scheifele will remain out of the lineup when his team takes on the Toronto Maple Leafs in the second half of a home-and-home Saturday following a 1-0 overtime loss in Toronto on Wednesday. The star pivot hasn't appeared since suffering a lower-body injury in a Jan. 11 come-from-behind win over the Chicago Blackhawks. Nonetheless, it's been another productive season for the veteran who has tallied 14 goals and 41 points across 41 games. His goal-scoring has tailed off after scoring 42 times last season but his shooting rate has predictably dropped from 20.4% last season to 14.9% this season. Jets captain Adam Lowry has taken reps on the top line and top power-play unit in Scheifele's absence but Vladislav Namestnikov could also see top-line minutes as well.
Winnipeg Jets center Mark Scheifele (lower body) is set to miss a fifth straight game Wednesday versus Toronto. He's labeled day-day, meaning Scheifele isn't far from being ready for action, but Wednesday's matchup comes too soon for him. With Gabriel Vilardi (lower body) remaining on the shelf for a second consecutive contest, the Jets top line is set to feature Kyle Connor, Vladislav Namestnikov, and Nikolaj Ehlers on Wednesday.
Winnipeg Jets center Mark Scheifele (lower body) will miss his first game of the season on Saturday against Philadelphia. After getting hurt in Thursday's 2-1 win over Chicago, Scheifele was initially considered a game-time decision for the clash, but he won't play. With Scheifele out, Winnipeg will be without its top scorer, as Scheifele has notched 41 points (14 goals, 27 assists) across 41 games. Adam Lowry stepped up from a third-line role to replace Scheifele on Thursday, although switching Gabriel Vilardi to center is another option for the Jets, who will look for a franchise-record-extending ninth consecutive win on Saturday.
Winnipeg Jets center Mark Scheifele is listed as day-to-day with a lower-body injury suffered during Thursday's 2-1 win over the visiting Chicago Blackhawks. The Jets' No. 1 center logged just seven shifts and 7:41 of ice time before departing after logging one shot on goal. It's been another potent season for the veteran as Scheifele sits with a point-per-game pace with 41 points in as many contests, 14 of which have been goals. He also has 94 shots on goal and a hefty plus-18 rating for a surging Jets team that sits first in the entire NHL with a 28-9-4 record. Adam Lowry took over on the top line between Nikolaj Ehlers and Gabriel Vilardi as the Jets stormed back with two late goals to snatch a win from the jaws of defeat.
Winnipeg Jets center Mark Scheifele was limited to only 7:41 of action on Thursday versus Chicago due to a lower-body injury. He will be re-evaluated on Friday. Scheifele entered Thursday's action with a four-game point streak, and he has been leading the way for Winnipeg all season long with a team-high 41 points (14 goals, 27 assists) in as many games. Adam Lowry took over the first-line center position on Friday and had a key role in a late comeback with two assists as the Jets set a new franchise record with an eighth consecutive win.
Mark Scheifele Continues Hot Month With Three-Point Performance
Winnipeg Jets center Mark Scheifele notched a goal and two assists in Saturday's 5-2 win over Arizona to maintain his hot November scoring form. The 30-year-old has tallied 13 points in eight appearances this month, scoring two goals and posting 11 assists. Scheifele has hit a bit of a wall in front of goal, but he's continued to find ways to get on a score sheet and definitely owes fantasy managers a few assists anyway from last season after having only 26 helpers across 81 games. The Jets ace already has 15 assists in 17 outings this season and sits on 21 points overall.
Mark Scheifele Signs Seven-Year Extension With Jets
Winnipeg Jets center Mark Scheifele has inked a seven-year, $59.5 million extension with the club. Scheifele got his long-term future sorted right before starting the final season of his current contract. After producing his first 40-goal campaign in 2022-23, Scheifele has set the bar high for himself ahead of the new campaign, but the security of having a new long-term deal in the bag should help his performances on the ice. The 30-year-old has been a point-per-game player in six of the past seven seasons and will lead the charge offensively for Winnipeg again in 2023-24.
Winnipeg Jets center Mark Scheifele has announced he's open to staying with the team. Scheifele's future has been a source for speculation all offseason, with the team having suffered another playoff disappointment and the 30-year-old forward having just one year left on his contract, but it looks like he is ready to commit his future to the Jets once again if things work out well in 2023-24. Scheifele has been a Jet all his career, registering 645 points (272 goals, 26 assists) in 723 games. He had a career-high 42 goals last season during a 68-point campaign. Starting goaltender Connor Hellebuyck, who's another pending unrestricted free agent on the Winnipeg roster, has also suggested that he could still remain with the team past the 2023-24 campaign.
Winnipeg Jets center Mark Scheifele (upper body) won't be available for Game 5 against Vegas on Thursday. Scheifele has been considered day-to-day after getting injured in Game 4 of the series, but he hasn't recovered quickly enough to be able to play Thursday. With the Golden Knights 3-1 up in the series, Scheifele will need to get a winning performance from his teammates in Game 5 to have a chance to return to action this season. He posted a career-high 42 goals and had 68 points in 81 games during the regular season, but Scheifele has struggled in the playoffs, registering only one point in four games.
Winnipeg Jets center Mark Scheifele was forced to leave Monday's Game 4 early against Vegas after sustaining an upper-body injury. He lasted for only 1:40 in the game, and Jets head coach Rick Bowness said that Scheifele will be re-evaluated on Tuesday. The Jets are already without top-six forward Nikolaj Ehlers (upper body) and No. 1 defenseman Josh Morrissey (lower body), so they could now miss three key guys in Game 5 on Wednesday where they need to battle off elimination.
Winnipeg Jets center Mark Scheifele scored twice to lift the team past Florida on Saturday. He netted a power-play goal early in the contest and netted a 5-4 game-winner 4:31 into overtime. Scheifele matched his career high with the second strike, now sitting on 38 goals through 66 games. He's been sharp in front of the net, but fantasy managers have gotten only 21 assists out of Scheifele this season, and it's starting to look like he won't be able to average at least a point per game for the first time since 2015-16.
Mark Scheifele Caps Off January With A Two-Goal Game
Winnipeg Jets center Mark Scheifele completed his work for January with two goals in Monday's matchup against St. Louis. He played a big part in a third-period comeback when the Jets turned a 2-0 deficit into a 4-2 win. Scheifele was very efficient in front of the net, as he had only three shots on goal in total, and he also produced two blocks and two hits with a plus-two rating in the contest. The reliable centerman had a big month in January with 16 points and upped his numbers for the year to 31 goals and 16 assists. In his 52nd game of the season, Scheifele became the ninth player in the league this season to get to the 30-goal plateau.
Mark Scheifele Has Two Goals, An Assist In Saturday's Win
Winnipeg Jets center Mark Scheifele enjoyed his fourth multi-point outing of the month Saturday versus Ottawa, piling up two goals and an assist in a big 5-1 win. His line with Nikolaj Ehlers and Blake Wheeler crushed it in the matchup as the trio combined for nine points. Scheifele had a power-play assist on Ehlers' opening goal and he scored both of his goals in even-strength situations. His first marker was also the game-winning goal. Scheifele needs to find the net just two more times to become the eighth 30-goal scorer in the league this season. However, he's been quiet in the assists department, recording only 15 helpers in 47 games, and this means that Scheifele is averaging less than a point per game for the first time in seven seasons.

He's logged six points in the last five games. Winnipeg has been flying high lately, compiling a 7-3-0 record in ten games. Next, up for the Jets, they will meet Arizona on Sunday.
