Mandatory Credit: Jeff Le-Imagn Images Winnipeg Jets star forward Mark Scheifele will not travel to St. Louis for Game 6 of the Western Conference first-round series versus the Blues on Friday, coach Scott Arniel announced.
Scheifele absorbed a couple big hits during the first period of Winnipeg's 5-3 win in Game 5 on Wednesday. The Jets hold a 3-2 lead in the best-of-seven series.
"I'm not going down that road," Arniel said Thursday when asked if Scheifele was in concussion protocol. The coach said he is considered day-to-day.
Scheifele, 32, was second on the Jets in goals (37) and points (87) during the regular season. He has six points (two goals, four assists) in five playoff games.
Vladislav Namestnikov replaced Scheifele on the top line to start the second period on Wednesday.
