Have a night, Mark Scheifele.

The Winnipeg Jets superstar continued his breakout season Thursday in fine fashion, hitting the 30-goal mark for the first time in his career with an overtime winner upstairs past Jonathan Bernier.

Thursday also happened to be Scheifele's bobblehead night at the MTS Centre, and his finisher capped an impressive comeback. The Jets trailed the Anaheim Ducks 3-1 with under 10 minutes to play in the third period, with Dustin Byfuglien tying the game up with only 12 seconds to go.

Scheifele played a whopping 26:47, and is up to 78 points, with career-high totals across the board.

At 24, he's only getting started.

As for the Ducks, the loser point is a big one for them, as they'll remain in first place in an ultra-tight Pacific Division on Friday morning.
