Mark Scheifele Becomes Jets' All-Time Leader

Mark Scheifele became the Winnipeg Jets' all-time points leader with 813 points after a Kyle Connor cross-ice feed set up a power-play one-timer that beat Juuse Saros in Winnipeg’s 4-1 win over the Nashville Predators. The milestone followed an earlier game in which Scheifele had tied Blake Wheeler at 812 with two goals in a 5-2 victory at Philadelphia. Connor Hellebuyck stopped 30 shots in the win over Nashville, and goals from Vlad Namestnikov, Nino Niederreiter and Logan Stanley helped extend Winnipeg’s early-season streak to 4-1-0. Scheifele publicly credited Wheeler and his teammates for their roles in the achievement and received an in-arena tribute from Wheeler. The team’s penalty kill remained strong, including killing a 44-second 5-on-3, underscoring Scheifele’s ongoing offensive leadership.
