Jets' Mark Scheifele: Ruled out Tuesday

Scheifele (undisclosed) will not play Tuesday night versus the Red Wings, Ted Kulfan of The Detroit News reports.

Analysis:

The punchy pivot will sit out a third straight game with the mystery ailment. Winnipeg is fortunate to have squeaked out a pair of wins despite the absence of Scheifele, who is average a point per game (13 goals, 13 assists) in his sixth year at the NHL level. Bryan Little will continue manning the top-line center spot with the 23-year-old Scheifele still ailing.
