Jets lose Scheifele to injury as Golden Knights take 3-1 lead

WINNIPEG, Manitoba -- Winnipeg Jets forward Mark Scheifele left Monday's 4-2 loss in Game 4 of their Western Conference first-round series against the Vegas Golden Knights.

Scheifele, 30, a first-line center who has one goal this series, suffered an upper-body injury in the first period.

"We'll reevaluate him (Tuesday)," Winnipeg coach Rick Bowness said after the game, adding he is not ruling him out for the series just yet.

The veteran Scheifele is coming off a standout regular season in which he scored 42 goals and finished with 68 points as the Jets secured the final postseason berth in the Western Conference.
