It’s what’s given us success all year,” Jets captain Blake Wheeler said on Sunday before his team returned to Winnipeg. There have been nights where one line carried us and then the next night the next line carries us. After a first period that saw the Predators carry the majority of the play and generate the bulk of the scoring chances, it was the Scheifele line that help swing the momentum in the game after the score was 1-1. By the time the final buzzer had sounded, the Jets first line had combined for three goals and eight points, including three helpers from Wheeler. It’s hard to imagine a bigger contribution in a more important game than the 6-2 victory in Game 5.
