The Winnipeg Jets are officially getting their top defenceman back for Friday’s pivotal Game 2 against the Dallas Stars.
Josh Morrissey took pre-game warmups and was confirmed to be back in Winnipeg’s lineup by the team.
Earlier Friday, head coach Scott Arniel said “probably” when asked if Morrissey would return.
Morrissey missed Game 1 of the series with an upper-body injury after exiting Game 7 against the St. Louis Blues in the first period following a hit into the boards from Oskar Sundqvist.
