Winnipeg Jets centre Mark Scheifele named NHL 1st Star of the Week

The Jets are rolling right now having points in six straight game (4-0-2) and a big part of their success has been the play of top centre Mark Scheifele who had eight points (3G 5A) during his three games for Winnipeg including two game winners.

From the Jets:

Scheifele, 32, began the week by factoring in on all three Jets goals, including tallying the 18th overtime game winner of his career (tied for seventh-most in NHL history), in a 3-2 OT win over Chicago on Tuesday. The Kitchener, Ont. native scored another game winning goal on Thursday and added an assist in Winnipeg’s 4-1 win over the Tampa Bay Lightning. On Saturday, Scheifele had another three-point (1G, 2A) effort, with his goal marking his 30th of the season, in a 3-2 overtime victory over the Vancouver Canucks. His eight points (3G, 5A) and two game winners this week were both tied for the most in the NHL and his five assists were tied for second.

This is the first time this season and the ninth time in his career that Scheifele has been selected in the NHL’s Three Stars of the Week. Scheifele is the first Jets weekly selection in 2025-26 and he was the NHL’s Second Star of the Month for October.
