Scheifele, the Jets’ center on their top line, took a couple of big hits in the first period, including one from Blues captain Brayden Schenn along the boards at 6:12. Scheifele remained in the game and Schenn was called for interference and roughing and Jets forward Brandon Tanev was called for roughing to give the Jets a power play.

Jets coach Scott Arniel was frustrated by the play that left him without star center Mark Scheifele for the final two periods of Wednesday's win over the Blues.
