WINNIPEG, Manitoba -- The NHL trade deadline is three weeks away, but the Winnipeg Jets may have already made their big move.
The Central Division leaders welcomed No. 1 center Mark Scheifele back to a full-contact practice on Monday, and if all goes according to plan, he could be in the lineup on Friday against the St. Louis Blues, who are hot on the Jets' heels.
Scheifele will spend one more night in the press box on Tuesday as the Jets welcome the team forever be known around these parts as "the old Jets," the Arizona Coyotes.
