Mark Scheifele has carved his name in the Winnipeg Jets’ record books.

The forward earned his 930th point to become the Jets’ franchise leader in points after he scored against the Chicago Blackhawks Saturday afternoon. Scheifele passed Dale Hawerchuk, who recorded 929 points in his nine seasons with Winnipeg between 1981-82 and 1989-90.

Scheifele finished the game with a goal and three assists for four points. The Jets would come back from a 4-0 deficit to win 5-4 in a shootout.

The 33-year-old center now has seven goals and 19 assists for 26 points in 21 games this season.

Now in his 16th NHL season, Scheifele, a native of Kitchener, Ont., has 379 goals and 554 assists for 933 points in 982 career regular-season games. He also has 26 goals and 23 assists for 49 points in 53 career Stanley Cup Playoff games.

In October 2025, Scheifele passed Blake Wheeler as the all-time points leader in the second iteration of the Winnipeg Jets. Before the start of the 2026-27 season, the NHL announced they would consolidate the two versions of the club, which means the statistical achievements of both eras would be recorded together.

The “new” Jets, or Jets 2.0, were originally known as the Atlanta Thrashers and played in the capital of Georgia between 1999 and 2011. It was bought by True North Sports & Entertainment, who relocated the team to Winnipeg.

Once the second version of the Jets became official, the team selected Scheifele with the No. 7 overall pick in the 2011 NHL Entry Draft, becoming the first-ever player selected by Winnipeg 2.0.
