Mark Scheifele (upper body) will miss Game 5 versus Vegas on Thursday, Mitchell Clinton of the Jets’ official site reports. Scheifele logged just 1:40 of ice time Monday before leaving the contest because of the injury. He had 42 goals and 68 points in 81 regular-season outings in 2022-23, and the 30-year-old’s contributed a goal through four playoff appearances this year. Vladislav Namestnikov might play a bigger role Thursday with Scheifele unavailable.
Vegas Golden Knights DFS SPIN
Brett Howden scored two goals on three shots, added three hits, blocked two shots and went plus-2 in Monday’s 4-2 win over the Jets in Game 4. Howden has been an unlikely source of offense with three points through four playoff contests. His first goal Monday tied the game at 1-1 in the first period, and he added an empty-netter in the third. The 25-year-old has added 19 hits, six shots on net and a plus-6 rating while filling a bottom-six role in the postseason.
