ST. JOHN’S, Nfld. – Rookie Mark Scheifele got back to his scoring ways and Portage native Troy Bodie scored his first of the pre-season as the Winnipeg Jets downed the Ottawa Senators 3-1 at Mile One Centre.

Also scoring for Winnipeg was Ben Maxwell while Mika Zibanejad got the lone Ottawa goal.

Jetes goalie Ondrej Pavelec was solid, turning away 27 of 28 shots.

Scheifele, who leads the Jets in pre-season scoring with three goals and three assist,s scored on the power play, swatting a puck out of the air past Alex Auld.

Bodie, who played in 50 games with the Carolina Hurricanes last season, jammed in the loose puck from the slot. The big winger then ended the second period in a tussle with Chris Neil.

“I thought we were good early and our speed was evident and we were on them hard. I thought we did a lot of good things we talked about detail wise so I keep seeing our team listening and paying attention and I’m starting to see some things that are good to me and it’s encouraging,” said coach Claude Noel. “It looks like our players want success.”

Pavelec was pleased with the way his team played in front of him.

“We looked really good. We played with speed and the guys worked hard in our end,” said the goalie. “It’s good to get a win and play like we can. It was fun out there.”
