This just in, Mark Scheifele will unfortunately not be travelling with the Jets to St. Louis as they take on the Blues for Game 6, as he is dealing with an injury.

Jets star center Mark Scheifele has just been ruled out for Winnipeg's potential series-clinching Game 6 contest against the St. Louis Blues on Friday, head coach Scott Arniel announced, which was reported via Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Free Press.
"I'm not going down that road."

- Scott Arniel
Worry is starting to spread with word that Scheifele could have a possible concussion, which, if it is the case, could sideline him for quite some time. Arniel won't get into that type of discussion at the moment.
Scheifele was struck hard at 6:12 into the contest by Blues captain Brayden Schenn, who only received a minor penalty for interference. Arniel was insensed that the call on the ice was only two minutes.
That wasn't the only time that Scheifele was targeted. Radek Faksa laid another hard hit early in the game as Scheifele entered the attacking area after crossing into the zone.

The league decided that no supplemental discipline would apply to the hits

Today, it was determined that no further action will be taken by the league on either one of the hits, especially that of Schenn, which garnered a lot of criticism overnight and into today.
The Jets, who will now be without Scheifele, were able to pull out the win with a 5-3 victory over the Blues.
They will now have a chance to finish off the Blues and go on to the second round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs, possibly as early as Friday.
Unfortunately, it will be one man down, as fans and the team hold their breath that it won't be anything too serious.
