Morrissey (COVID-19 protocols) could be an option for Tuesday's matchup with the Flyers, Scott Billeck of the Winnipeg Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Based on his timeline, Morrissey will miss out versus the Blues on Saturday which will leave the Jets extremely thin on the blue line considering Dylan DeMelo (lower body), Nathan Beaulieu (lower body) and Logan Stanley (lower body) are all unavailable. Youngsters Declan Chisholm and Johnny Kovacevic figure to be added to the active roster prior to puck drop to fill out the third pairing. Once cleared to play, Morrissey figures to get back to averaging over 22 minutes per night and should reclaim his spot on the power play.
