Jets' Mark Scheifele: Will suit up for Worlds

Scheifele will join Canada for the 2017 IIHF World Championship.

Analysis:

Scheifele will be joined by teammate Josh Morrissey overseas as Canada looks to make it a three-peat for the Great White North. During the 2016-17 campaign, the center led the Jets with 32 goals and 50 assists -- an average of 1.04 points per outing -- including seven markers with the man advantage. If Winnipeg challenges for a playoff spot next year, Scheifele will almost certainly be a big reason why.
