Jets’ Scheifele, Morrissey, Stanley still game-time decisions for Game 1 vs. Stars

Winnipeg’s lineup is in flux ahead of Game 1 against Dallas.

Jets centre Mark Scheifele and defencemen Josh Morrissey and Logan Stanley all remain game-time decisions for Wednesday’s second-round opening game against the Stars, head coach Scott Arniel told reporters.

Scheifele last played in Game 5 of the first round against the St. Louis Blues before missing the final two contests with an undisclosed injury.

He owns six points (two goals and four assists) through five playoff games and finished second in team scoring during the regular season with a career-high 87 points, helping lead Winnipeg to the Presidents’ Trophy.

Scheifele, 32, skated on the top line between wingers Kyle Connor and Gabe Vilardi at morning skate.

Morrissey exited Game 7 in the first period following a hit into the boards.

He had three assists in the first six games of the Jets’ first-round series while averaging 23:30 of ice time. In 80 regular-season games, the 30-year-old recorded 14 goals and 48 assists.

Stanley has played in five games this post-season, recording no points, a minus-2 rating and 42 penalty minutes. He was replaced by Haydn Fleury, who played 33:02 in the double-OT Game 7 victory.

Morrissey and Stanley both practised Wednesday but stayed out late for extra work after skating together on a fourth pair of sorts.

On the other side, the Stars will be without defenceman Miro Hesikanen, Dallas head coach Pete DeBoer told reporters on Wednesday. The Finn has been sidelined since early March due to a knee injury but had been considered day-to-day leading into Game 1. Meanwhile, DeBoer added that forward Jason Robertson is a game-time decision.

Live coverage of Wednesday’s Game 1 between the Jets and Stars will be on Sportsnet and Sportsnet+ beginning at 9:30 p.m. ET / 8:30 p.m. CT.
