Overview
- Scheifele moved past Dale Hawerchuk during a comeback 5-4 shootout win in Chicago on Saturday when he scored and added three assists for a four-point game.
- His updated career totals with the franchise now stand at 379 goals and 554 assists for 933 points in 982 regular-season games.
- The NHL’s decision before the 2026–27 season to merge the original Winnipeg Jets (1981–1990) and Jets 2.0 statistical lineages is what allowed Scheifele’s numbers to be measured against Hawerchuk’s 929-point mark.
- Dale Hawerchuk’s family posted a message on the team’s official X account congratulating Scheifele and saying Hawerchuk would have been proud, noting the personal mentor‑player ties from Barrie Colts days.
- The milestone also reshuffles franchise leaderboards by giving Scheifele sole possession of the assists record and tying him for the franchise goal record, a change that will shape how future Jets records are tracked and celebrated.
