Rust shaken off: Scheifele shines in 3rd game since return from injury
James Carey Lauder / USA Today Sports
Mark Scheifele is flying once again.
The Winnipeg Jets center was a difference-maker in Tuesday's overtime win, recording two goals, one assist, and four shots in over 23 minutes of ice time against the Washington Capitals.
Scheifele's impact was felt most with the game on the line, as he scored his second of the night with 14.4 seconds remaining in regulation.
And then at 2:35 of the extra frame, he expertly set up the game-winning strike by Tyler Myers.
Scheifele was playing his third game since missing 16 with an upper-body injury.
