From first-ever draft pick to franchise leader: Mark Scheifele makes Winnipeg Jets history

Mark Scheifele has made Winnipeg Jets history, going from the franchise's first-ever draft pick to its leader in points (933) and assists (554) across 982 NHL games. 

In the team's 5-4 comeback victory against the Chicago Blackhawks on Saturday, Scheifele recorded a goal and three assists and scored in the shootout as the Jets rallied from a 4-0 deficit to win their sixth straight game. 

With those four points, Scheifele is now the highest-scoring player in the Jets' 44-season history, as he overtook his former coach and mentor, Dale Hawerchuk, on the franchise's points list. Scheifele previously played junior hockey in the OHL under Hawerchuk with the Barrie Colts. 

Scheifele beating Hawerchuk was bound to happen. Going into the game, Scheifele was tied with the Hall of Famer with 929 points. Scheifele has also matched Hawerchuk's all-time mark in goals with 379. Scheifele also passed Thomas Stenne to become the Jets' all-time leader in assists (554).
