Jets pride in Scheifel's emotional game 6 efforts after the father's death

Scheifele recorded 18:51 Ice Time, scored a goal, won 7 out of 12 allusions and led the jets with nine goals.

“This is hard,” said Steel, who scored the first goal of Dallas on Saturday. “We find it today (via Scheifele's father), a group of us when we ate lunch, and we were all absolutely disappointed for him. I am not sure whether I could do what he did tonight. It is pretty brave of him. He played his heart.”

It was a hard end of the season for the jets. After winning the Presidents' Trophy, which was awarded to the team every year, which ended with most points in the regular season. They fought with important injuries. In the last two minutes of regulation in game 7 of the first round, they gathered an enormous comeback to get the opportunity to play the stars.

The end of Saturday was cruel in many ways for the jets and especially for Scheifele. He wanted to play for his late father, wanted to be there to help the jets for the first time since 2018 for the conference final, and he tried enormously to try to do so. It was not to be.

“Heartbreaking,” said Jets captain Adam Lowry. “You know, we felt that we had a great regular season, we felt that we had a team that could have a run. So that it did as it did, and everything else that surrounds the day is just a lot of emotions.

“It is difficult to put into words what Mark has been through today. Observes a big goal for us, plays a damn game, and it ends as it does. Only emotionally, difficult. Really proud of the group that we had. The engagement, the noisy, many things that a good team needs. We are into a big Dallas team. We couldn't find the extra tonight.” That was the difference. “
