EDGE Analysis
Scheifele will be on the ice with the man advantage alongside Jack Eichel, Connor McDavid, Brandon Saad, and Aaron Ekblad in what could be one of the most exciting squads to watch for the tournament. The 23-year-old Scheifele may not be as highly touted as some of his teammates, despite logging 29 goals and 61 assists last season, but will have every opportunity to put his talents on display and show fans and fantasy owners alike why he was taken seventh overall in the 2011 NHL Draft.
