Jets' Mark Scheifele: Out Saturday with lower-body ailment

Scheifele (lower body) did not take the ice for pregame warmups and is inactive for Saturday's matchup with the Blues, Sara Orlesky of TSN reports.

Analysis:

It remains unclear how Scheifele sustained his current ailment but it apparently severe enough to force him out of NHL action. The 23-year-old notched 18 points in the month of November along with an efficient 24.3 shot percentage. The Jets play Sunday against the Blackhawks and Scheifele should be considered questionable for that one.
