Jets' Mark Scheifele: Offense picking back up
Rotowire
Scheifele had two assists Thursday in a 3-2 overtime win over Buffalo.
Scheifele had been quietly offensively of late, so it was nice to see him get two helpers -- he has just five points (one goal, four assists) over his last eight games, including three points in his last two contests. Perhaps most importantly, Scheifele won 14 of 25 face-offs -- he's seen more time at wing than center of late due to an undisclosed issue. The big pivot's slower offensive pace will likely increase now as well. Whatever was ailing him appears to be behind him.

In the contest, Scheifele won six of 15 faceoffs -- over the last handful of games, he had seen a reduced role at the dot, though he's played through whatever issue has limited him.

Jets' Mark Scheifele: Draws assist Monday
Rotowire
Scheifele logged an assist, three shots on goal, three hits, two blocked shots and two PIM in Monday's 4-1 win over the Wild.
Scheifele didn't take a faceoff Monday -- he's likely dealing with something that he can play through, but it's prevented him from being heavily involved at the dot over the last three games. The center is still contributing in other ways, and as long as he's scoring, fantasy managers won't have much to complain about. The 31-year-old has five points over his last four contests, and he's up to 12 goals, 14 assists, 50 shots on net, 23 hits, 20 blocked shots, 21 PIM and a plus-4 rating through 22 outings overall.
