Mark Scheifele will make his season debut for the Jets against the San Jose Sharks on Saturday (10 p.m. ET; CITY, SNW, NBCSCA, ESPN+, NHL LIVE).
The center did not play in the Jets' season-opening 4-1 loss to the Anaheim Ducks on Wednesday while serving the final game of a four-game suspension for charging Montreal Canadiens forward Jake Evans in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Second Round on June 2.
"It's been a long time," Scheifele said Friday. "Had a good practice today, just got to, you know, try not to score 100 goals in the first shift and just kind of take it stride by stride and enjoy it. … Looking forward to being out with the boys tomorrow."
Scheifele, who led the Jets with 63 points (21 goals, 42 assists) in 56 games last season, skated on a line with Kyle Connor and Blake Wheeler Friday and practiced on the top power-play unit.
