InjuryInjury
Scheifele will not play against the Bruins on Monday and is considered day-to-day with a lower-body injury.

Jets head coach Rick Bowness did say the plan was for Scheifele to resume skating ahead of Wednesday's game in Toronto, though his status for that game remains up in the air. Scheifele has been replaced on the top line by Adam Lowry, who will have a tough time replacing Scheifele's production. Before his injury, Scheifele had five points (2G / 3A) while riding a four-game point streak.
