Mark Scheifele Named NHL Second Star of the Week

The Winnipeg Jets hockey club, in conjunction with the National Hockey League, today announced that forward Mark Scheifele has been named the NHL 'Second Star' of the Week for the week ending Nov. 13/16.
Scheifele, 23, tallied six points (3G, 3A) in four games last week in leading the Jets to a 3-0-1 record. He had four points (2G, 2A) at home against Dallas on Nov. 8/16 in an 8-2 win before adding an assist on Nov. 10/16 at Arizona (3-2 W) and scoring the game-tying goal on Nov. 11/16 at Colorado (3-2 OTL). He capped his week by scoring the winning goal in a shootout against Los Angeles (3-2 SOW) on Nov. 13/16.

On the season, Scheifele is tied for the NHL scoring lead with 20 points (10G, 10A) in 17 games. He has scored or assisted 40 per cent of the 50 goals the Jets have scored this season.
