It was announced Saturday afternoon that Brad Scheifele, father of Jets centre Mark Scheifele, had died the night before. Despite the news, the younger Scheifele suited up for the game against the Dallas Stars, scoring what would be the team’s final goal of the playoffs before they were eliminated in overtime.

After the news broke, the True North Youth Foundation received more than $65,000 in donations, mostly based around Scheifele’s No. 55 jersey number.

The foundation’s Dwayne Green told 680 CJOB’s The Start that donations based around 55 — like $5.55 or $55, or even $5,500 from both the Dallas Stars and food delivery company, Skip the Dishes — have been the order of the day.

Anyone interested in donating can do so at the foundation’s website.
