Scheifele a Quiet Presence in Overtime Loss at Home

Center logged long shifts and mixed possession work while Winnipeg fell in OT to Boston

Mark Scheifele saw regular-duty minutes and finished a quiet box score in the Jets' 4-3 overtime loss. He skated 21:21 over 24 shifts, the third-most ice time among Winnipeg skaters and he led the forwards in time on ice for his position group. Scheifele didn’t register a goal or assist and had zero shots on goal, though he recorded one even-strength shot attempt and one on the power play. His counting numbers were modest: 0 points, -1 plus-minus, 2 takeaways and 3 giveaways. There was no penalty time. In short, Scheifele’s night was low on the scoresheet but involved—he matched the team’s middle workload metrics while contributing a couple of defensive plays; the offense came from elsewhere as Winnipeg dropped the extra-time decision.
