Winnipeg Jets forward Mark Scheifele will play Sunday against the Dallas Stars after missing the last five games with an upper-body injury, head coach Paul Maurice said, according to Jets TV Reporter Mitchell Clinton.
Scheifele suffered the injury on March 6 against the New York Rangers - about a month after he returned from nearly seven weeks out with a previous upper-body ailment.
The 25-year-old has 51 points in 50 games this season and is expected to slot into a familiar spot on the team's top line between Blake Wheeler and Kyle Connor.
Also making his return to the lineup is fellow center Adam Lowry, who hasn't played since Feb. 1 due to his own upper-body injury.
