Morrissey (upper body) will return to the lineup for Wednesday's Game 1 against the Blues, NHL.com's Tim Campbell reports.

EDGE Analysis

Morrissey missed the final 20 games of the regular season due to an upper-body injury, but he was a full participant at Monday's practice, which was the first sign that he may be an option Wednesday. The Jets will be happy to have the 24-year-old back on the ice against St. Louis, as he was a steady source of offense from the blue line this season, notching six goals and 31 points in 59 games while averaging over 22 minutes of ice time per contest. Morrissey will skate with Jacob Trouba on the Jets' top pairing during Game 1, and he should also see time on the man advantage.

Morrissey (upper body) was designated as a "full-go" Monday, Paul Friesen of Winnipeg Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

Morrissey's absence extended through March and into the end of the season in April, but seems to be progressing from injury. This news doesn't solidify his status for Wednesday's Game 1 against the Blues, but it's a positive sign for the defenseman. The burgeoning defenseman added six goals and 25 helpers -- to complement 10 power-play points -- through 59 games in his third season as a full-time player. As always, expect a definitive word from the team closer to puck drop.

Morrissey (upper body) won't be in action for the regular-season finale against the Coyotes on Saturday, Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

It's not all doom and gloom for Morrissey, as he reportedly took to the ice in a regular contact jersey Saturday. The burgeoning defenseman added six goals and 25 helpers -- to complement 10 power-play points -- through 59 games in his third season as a full-time player.

Head coach Paul Maurice said Monday that he doesn't expect Morrissey (upper body) to suit up in game action before the regular season ends, Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

As evidenced by this news, Morrissey won't suit up in Monday's game against Chicago, and could be held out until the postseason. In 59 games this season, the 24-year-old has racked up 31 points, which is a career-high. With a playoff spot locked up, expect a mix of Dmitry Kulikov and Sami Niku in the lineup for the time being.

Morrissey (upper body) took to the practice rink in a non-contact jersey Saturday, Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

This is a notable step in Morrissey's recovery, but the Jets have yet to put a concrete timetable on the burgeoning defenseman's return to game action. Winnipeg has already secured a playoff spot, and while crazier things have happened, we wouldn't necessarily count on Morrissey returning for the final four games that remain on the Jets' regular-season schedule in April.

Morrissey (upper body) will not be in the lineup until early April, a stretch of at least 16 games on the shelf, Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Jets' acquisitions of Nathan Beaulieu and Bogdan Kiselevich at the deadline certainly make a lot of sense given the fact that Morrissey will miss at least a month. Prior to getting hurt, the Calgary native was stuck in a six-game pointless streak and, if his injury lingers, could fail to break that drought until the postseason.

The Jets are focusing on travel arrangements back for Morrissey (upper body) back to Winnipeg, so there may not be another update on him until Tuesday morning, Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

Morrissey was hit along the boards in the third period of Sunday's road game against the Coyotes and he could be seen favoring his left arm. The Jets play host to the Wild on Tuesday evening, so expect an update on Morrissey to surface before that contest. The Calgary native has been terrific this season, as he's posted six goals and a career-high 25 assists through 59 games -- not to mention another 107 blocked shots over that span.

Morrissey left Sunday's loss to the Coyotes with an upper body injury after getting hit along the boards in the third period, Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

Morrissey left the game immediately, holding his left arm. Coach Paul Maurice said after the game that he'd have no update until the team returned home Monday. With Dustin Byfuglien out again, losing Morrissey could really test the Jets' depth on the blue line. We'll see if that inspires them to make a trade before Monday's deadline.

Morrissey (lower body) will return to the lineup for Saturday's game against the Senators, Brian Munz of TSN 1290 Winnipeg reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Jets and fantasy owners will both be happy to have Morrissey back in their lineups Saturday, as he was heating up prior to his one-game absence, picking up one goal and three points in his last four games. The 23-year-old blueliner will return to a prominent role, skating on Winnipeg's top pairing and first power-play unit against Ottawa.

Morrissey (lower body) is expected to return to the lineup against Ottawa on Saturday, Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

The news effectively rules Morrissey out versus Montreal on Thursday, but at least gives fantasy owners a firm timeline for his return. Fortunately for the club, DUstin Byfuglien (ankle) will be in the lineup against the Habs, so any potential drop off on the blue line should be mitigated. Once given the green light to resume playing, Morrissey will look to continue contributing offensively, as he has three points in his last four outings.
