Ever wondered how Jets centre Mark Scheifele spends a game day?

Ever wondered what the routine of an NHL player is on a game day?  Jets centre Mark Scheifele breaks down his usual away game day routine which includes:

– Waking up and eating breakfast an hour or so before the bus leaves.

– Gets to the rink.  Stretching, tapes his stick.  Has team meeting.  Morning skate.

– Takes a nap. Anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour and a half.

– If it’s a 7 pm game, bus leaves at 4 pm, so he will wake at 3 pm.  Eats and heads to rink.

So there you have how #55 spends his day when the Jets are on the road.  Of course if this question was posed to rookie Patrik Laine the answer would likely involve his Playstation.

Working hard on a daily basis to provide the latest Winnipeg Jets and Manitoba Moose news for our readers and listeners. I also appear on the Illegal Curve Hockey Show every Saturday on our YouTube channel as well as the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show after every single Jets game. And I occasionally jump in the play-by-play booth at Canada Life to provide colour analysis during Manitoba Moose games.
