TSN: ‘Cohesive’ pair of Connor and Scheifele pushing Jets forward. Winnipeg has won five of the last six and lead the Central Division by five points, led in part by linemates Kyle Connor and Mark Scheifele, who have combined for seven goals and five assists in the last two games. While some would say it is a friendly rivalry to push each other, their Jets’ teammates say their output has been due in part to cohesiveness and comfortability.
