Winnipeg Jets forward Mark Scheifele has been held off the scoresheet for the second consecutive game in the matchup against the Minnesota Wild. Since scoring his first goal in Game 1, Scheifele has been almost invisible in stats, putting up zero shots in Game 3, going only 31 percent at the face-off dot and finishing the night with a negative-two plus/minus. "The disease of slowness," criticized head coach Paul Maurice, and players like Scheifele have to step up and bare the brunt of the responsibility. Maybe the Jets got comfortable after the 4-1 win in Game 2, but the lackluster performance will not do against this tenacious Wild roster. Scheifele has been a great pickup all season long, but the postseason is a different animal and he is having some trouble finding his footing. The Jets cannot have a repeat of Game 3. Expect Scheifele to lead the charge when the time comes.--aayushdas
