Scheifele produced an assist, two shots on net and a plus-2 rating in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Canucks.
EDGE Analysis
Scheifele is on a four-game point streak with two goals and two helpers in that span. The center's October was wasted by a carryover suspension from the playoffs and a five-game absence in the COVID-19 protocols, but he's finally turned a corner in the last week. Scheifele has seven points, 24 shots on net and a plus-2 rating in 11 contests overall.

Scheifele used a drop pass to set up Nikolaj Ehlers for the Jets' lone tally Thursday. After a tumultuous start to the year, Scheifele has gotten on the scoresheet in three straight games. He has two goals, four helpers, 22 shots on net and an even plus-minus rating in 10 appearances overall while continuing to play in a top-line role.

Scheifele scored a goal on four shots and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
Scheifele extended the Jets' lead to 4-0 in the final minute of the second period. Usually, goals in back-to-back contests doesn't stand out for Scheifele, but he's done just that to get his first two tallies of the campaign. The center has added three helpers, 20 shots on net and a minus-1 rating through nine games -- it appears he's rounding back into form after a bumpy start to 2021-22.

Scheifele scored the overtime winner in Saturday's 3-2 victory over the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
The 28-year-old has had trouble getting going to begin the season, missing Opening Night as he served out the remainder of a suspension from last season and then getting sidelined for five more contests in late October while in the COVID-19 protocols. In between those absences, Scheifele has managed only four points in eight games, with Saturday's timely tally being his first goal. He's put together at least a point-a-game pace in each of the five prior campaigns, so expect a hot streak out of Scheifele sooner or later that gets him back on track.

Scheifele (leg) will be in the lineup Tuesday against visiting St. Louis, Scott Billeck of the Winnipeg Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Scheifele was reportedly questionable for the contest as of Monday, but it appears he's good to go. With just three assists and no goals through five games in a season partially derailed thus far due to suspension and COVID-19 protocols, Scheifele has some work to do to fulfill his lofty fantasy expectations.

Scheifele (leg) is questionable against the Blues on Tuesday, Mitchell Clinton of the Jets' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Scheifele has already missed six games to suspension and COVID-19 this season and is now in danger of being sidelined once again Tuesday. The elite center has yet to find the back of the net this season and will need to start scoring soon if he is going to register a seventh straight 20-goal campaign.

Scheifele (not injury related) will suit up versus Dallas on Tuesday, per Mike McIntyre of the Winnipeg Free Press.
EDGE Analysis
After missing five games due to a positive COVID-19 test, Scheifele will be back on the ice and is expected to link up with long-time winger Blake Wheeler. In two games this year, the 28-year-old Scheifele has tallied two assists, three shots and one hit while logging a career-high 22:35 of ice time. If he can stay healthy the rest of the way, Scheifele could push for the 80-point mark, a threshold he has hit twice in his 11-year NHL career.
