Jets Triumph 6-3 Over Panthers, Scheifele Shines

Mark Scheifele's ninth career hat trick propelled the Winnipeg Jets to a 6-3 victory over the Florida Panthers, ending a two-game losing streak. The Jets, now leading the NHL, improved to a 16-3 record with Scheifele scoring in each period, including a crucial goal shortly after a power play. Kyle Connor added a goal and an assist, and Morgan Barron scored two short-handed empty-net goals. Connor Hellebuyck made 20 saves, while Matthew Tkachuk, A.J. Greer, and Sam Reinhart scored for the Panthers, who have now lost three of their last four games. The Panthers' defeat also ended their six-game road winning streak.
