Scheifele's absence is a surprise, as the team did not make any mention of a potential injury prior to warmups. The Jets have had a number players miss due to illness over the last few games, so it's possible Scheifele is the next in that unfortunate line. Rasmus Kupari is expected to take his place in the lineup on Wednesday.
Scheifele has missed the Jets' previous six games as he dealt with a lower-body injury but will return to Winnipeg's lineup on Tuesday vs. Pittsburgh. The 30-year-old star centre will make a much-welcomed return as he currently leads the Jets in points with 14 goals and 41 points in 41 games played before his injury.

Scheifele will miss his fifth straight game due to a lower-body injury despite being a full participant at the last two Jets' practices. Before his injury, Scheifele had five points (2G / 3A) while riding a four-game point streak. His next opportunity to return to the lineup will be on Saturday against the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Scheifele has missed four straight games but was a full participant at practice for the first time on Tuesday. Before his injury, Scheifele had five points (2G / 3A) while riding a four-game point streak. His next opportunity to return to the lineup will be on Wednesday against the Toronto Maple Leafs.
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.
Originally believed to be a possibility on Saturday, Scheifele will remain out of the lineup through the weekend and possibly beyond, as he has not resumed skating yet. Scheifele has been replaced on the top line by Adam Lowry, who will have a tough time replacing Scheifele's production as, before his injury, he had five points (2G / 3A) while riding a four-game point streak.
Scheifele's injury does not appear overly concerning, but he has been placed on the injured reserve and will be out of the lineup until at least Sunday. Before his injury, Scheifele had five points (2G / 3A) while riding a four-game point streak. The Jets' depleted offence will get a boost on Tuesday as they welcome Kyle Connor Back from a five-week absence due to a knee injury.
After exiting Tuesday's game to get some stitches, Scheifele was again unable to compete in Thursday's game, leaving with a lower-body injury in the second period after playing only 7:41 time-on-ice. Luckily for the Jets, Scheifele's injury does not appear to be serious and should not miss too much time for a team that is already without Kyle Connor. Before his injury, Scheifele had five points (2G / 3A) while riding a four-game point streak.
Scheifele exited the game with a non-contact injury early in the second period of Thursday's game and will not return. His absence will leave a serious void in a Jets' top-six that is already missing Kyle Connor. We should expect to receive an update on Scheifele's injury and a possible timeline for his return following the completion of Thursday's game.
Scheifele had 42 goals, 26 assists, 43 PIMs, 206 SOG, and a -16 plus/minus through 81 games played in 2022-23 and has now signed a seven-year, $59.5 million contract extension ($8,500,000 AAV). The 30-year-old Jets captain is entering his 13th NHL season (all with Winnipeg) and has 272 goals and 645 points in 723 career games played.
Scheifele left Game 4 Monday after just three shifts and 1:40 TOI due to an undisclosed injury and will not play in Game 5 on Thursday. The 30-year-old has struggled to produce this offseason, with a goal, 10 SOG, four PIMs and a -1 plus/minus through four games.

Scheifele had 42 goals, 26 assists, 206 SOG, 43 PIMs and a -16 plus/minus through 81 games this season but will not play in the final game of the year Thursday for rest-related purposes. The 30-year-old centre put up a career-high in both goals (42) and shots (206) this season.
Scheifele left Sunday's game with an upper-body injury and did not return. Post-game, interim head coach Dave Lowry said that he will not play Monday and will be evaluated when the team returns to Winnipeg. The fact that he was ruled out right away likely isn't a good sign for his availability in the immediate future.
Scheifele was missing from Monday's practice but is expected to play Tuesday vs. the Blues. Scheifele has picked up one assist in three games since returning from the COVID-19 reserve list.
