Scheifele Provides a Helper in Winnipeg's Home Loss
The forward chipped in offensively in a 5-1 defeat to Anaheim while skating third among Jets forwards in ice time.
Mark Scheifele picked up an assist in a losing effort and finished with one point on the scoresheet. He skated 22:18 across 23 shifts, ranking fourth among Winnipeg skaters and third among the team's forwards, and produced his lone point at even strength.
Scheifele recorded 1 shot on goal, 2 giveaways and no hits or blocks in the game. His power-play usage was nil — no power-play points and one power-play shot attempt — while all of his scoring came at five-on-five. The game moves his season totals to 3 assists for 3 points through 5 games and a team on-ice expected-goals for of 9.85 against 6.5 expected goals against.
