Jets head coach Scott Arniel announces Mark Scheifele will not travel for Game 6.
This has striked controversy due to the fact te 32-year old underwent two brutal hits from Brayden Schengen and Radek Faksa during the series thus far, which has drawn attention to the Schenn hit.
As of now, Mark Scheifele’s injury is undisclosed, and the extent of his injuries are unknown.
However, when Scott Ariel was asked if the 32-year old’s absence was due to a concussion protocol, he quickly responded by saying, ‘I’m not going down that road.’
Although it is uncertain how severe Scheifele’s injuries are, this can be absolutely life-changing for the Jim Montgomery as well as the Blue’s during such a crucial part of the NHL year as this Jets’ forward is impeccable, and losing that talent on the ice might just be what the Blues need to make it to the second round.
