Scheifele gets off the schneid

Mark Scheifele insisted he wasn’t worried, but his recent performance has silenced those concerns. After a career-best offensive season, the Jets' star forward struggled in his first three games, tallying zeroes. However, on Wednesday night, Scheifele came alive, assisting on Cole Perfetti’s goal and setting up Kyle Connor’s game-winner in a 2-2 tie with the Colorado Avalanche.

Coach Scott Arniel praised Scheifele's ability to make crucial plays and noted that once one goal assists, others will follow. The first draft pick of the 2.0 edition performed well, leading the team with seven points. However, Scheifele's impact was evident, helping the Jets gather five of six points in their first three games without him being on the game-sheet.
