The Winnipeg Jets are a team loaded with explosive offensive talent, and analysts are starting to make their predictions for next season.

Mark Scheifele has always been considered to be an electrifying forward for the Jets. He's got a knack for being in the right place at the right time, all while being a steady offensive presence for the team.
The Jets had a balanced offence last season, so Scheifele's team-leading 72 points is a fairly modest figure as far as team-leading point-getters go (he was tied for 46th league wide in points.)
Last season was the first time since 2016-17 Scheifele led the team in points (he tied for the team lead in 2019-20 with Connor) but the Jets' top-line centre has become a known commodity who operates at about a point-per-game clip. He has 717 in 797-career games and has six point-per-game-plus campaigns under his belt.

In addition to being projected to lead the team in points next season, Mark Scheifele also has his eyes set on cracking Team Canada's roster ahead of the 2026 Winter Olympic games in Cortina-Milano.
If Scheifele manages to breakthrough his offensive ceiling while simultaneously improving his defensive abilities, Scheifele is considered to be a solid candidate to crack the roster
