Scheifele scored a pair of goals on five shots in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
Scheifele tied the game at 3:27 and then added the Jets' third goal under three minutes later. The 29-year-old looked good on a line with wingers Mason Appleton and Kyle Connor -- that trio combined for eight points in the game. This was Scheifele's first multi-point effort since Opening Night. He's at eight goals, two assists, 31 shots on net, 15 hits and a minus-1 rating through 12 appearances.

Scheifele drew his first assist of the season Thursday in a 3-2 overtime win over Montreal.
EDGE Analysis
Scheifele started the season with six goals in his first nine games and finally picked up an assist when he had a give-and-go with Kyle Connor in overtime for the winner. Scheifele has always been more of a playmaker than a goal scorer as he has had four straight 40-plus assist campaigns, so this season has been an anomaly.

Scheifele scored a goal on two shots in Friday's 3-2 overtime win over the Coyotes.
EDGE Analysis
Scheifele scored for the third game in a row, and this was a big one. His tally tied the game at 2-2, and the Jets went on to complete the comeback in overtime. The 29-year-old center has had his finishing touch to begin 2022-23, scoring six times on 23 shots in eight contests. He's added 10 hits, six blocked shots and a minus-2 rating.

Scheifele scored a goal and added three hits in Thursday's 6-4 win over the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Scheifele opened the scoring at 5:03 of the first period, kicking off what would be a back-and-forth battle. The center has goals in consecutive games, and he's up to five tallies through seven contests this year. He hasn't dished an assist yet, but he's exceeded 40 helpers in five of the last six years, so his playmaking should come around. Scheifele also has 21 shots on net, 10 hits and a minus-3 rating while playing as the top-line center.

Scheifele connected on his fourth goal this season, sparking the Jets to a 4-0 victory over the Blues on Monday night.
EDGE Analysis
Scheifele, who generated five shots during 21:24 of ice time Monday, benefitted from an effective cycle by his linemates to snap a scoreless tie midway through the second period. The 29-year-old received a pass in the slot area, stickhandled around goalie Thomas Greiss and shot into an open net. Scheifele snapped a three-game pointless slump.

Scheifele scored a goal on two shots and added two hits in Monday's 4-1 loss to the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
Scheifele opened the scoring 3:28 into the first period, but that was the extent of the Jets' offense. The 29-year-old center has three tallies, nine shots, four hits and two blocked shots through two contests this season. It's not unusual to see Scheifele produce at this rate -- he's maintained a point-per-game pace over the last six seasons.

Scheifele scored two goals on seven shots, doled out two hits and blocked two shots in Friday's 4-1 win over the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
Scheifele opened the scoring in the first period and added a power-play marker in the third. The star center has recorded 30-plus goals twice in his career, and he's reached the 70-point mark in three of the last four campaigns. It appears he'll once again serve as the top-line center, and he had excellent linemates in Kyle Connor and Nikolaj Ehlers for the Jets' season opener.

Scheifele (upper body) skated on the first line during Thursday's training camp practice, Mike McIntyre of the Winnipeg Free Press reports.
EDGE Analysis
Scheifele missed the last nine games of the 2021-22 campaign with an upper-body injury, but it appears as though he's made a full recovery in time for training camp. The 29-year-old pivot racked up 29 goals and 70 points through 67 contests last season.

Scheifele (upper body) ended the 2021-22 campaign on the sidelines due to injury but still managed to reach the 70-point threshold for the fourth time in his career.
EDGE Analysis
No doubt the fact Scheifele was unavailable for the Jets' final nine games of the season played a part in Winnipeg failing to qualify for the playoffs. Barring a dramatic offseason dispute between the 29-year-old center and the organization, Scheifele should be back in a first-line role for the team next season and figures to remain a top-end fantasy option.

Coach Dave Lowry doesn't expect Scheifele (upper body) to return this season, Ken Wiebe of Sportsnet reports.
EDGE Analysis
Assuming he doesn't make an unexpected return in the last week of the season, Scheifele will finish the year with 29 goals and 70 points through 67 contests. Although the Jets have yet to release an expected timetable for his recovery, at this point it's probably safe to assume Scheifele will be ready for next season's training camp.
