Morrissey provided a pair of assists in Friday's 4-3 loss to the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis
Morrissey ended a three-game slump with his pair of helpers. He hasn't scored since Nov. 1, but he has stayed reliable with nine assists over his last 13 outings. The 29-year-old defenseman is up to 22 points, 49 shots on net, 40 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating over 24 contests in a top-pairing role, and nine of his points have come on the power play.

Morrissey logged a power-play assist and four shots on goal in Friday's 4-1 win over the Penguins.
EDGE Analysis
Morrissey helped out on a Gabriel Vilardi tally late in the second period. While he's been limited to four helpers over his last seven contests, there's little reason to be concerned about Morrissey. He's still playing huge minutes as the Jets' top defenseman, but his early pace was always going to be tough to sustain. For the season, the 29-year-old has two goals, 18 assists, nine power-play points, 43 shots on net, 33 blocked shots and a plus-7 rating over 20 appearances.

Morrissey scored a power-play goal on five shots, added an assist, logged two hits and blocked two shots in Friday's 6-2 win over the Blue Jackets.
EDGE Analysis
Morrissey earned his fourth multi-point effort of the campaign and his second in the last three games. Both of his points came in the third period as the Jets pulled away with the win. The 29-year-old defenseman is off to another great start in 2024-25 with two goals, 11 assists, six power-play goal, 24 shots on net, 24 blocked shots, eight hits and a plus-7 rating through 11 contests. He's been an elite scorer from the blue line over the last two campaigns and looks set to continue at that level this year.

Morrissey put up a trio of assists Monday in a 6-4 loss to the Maple Leafs.
EDGE Analysis
Two of the apples came on the power play. Morrissey sits tied for second overall in scoring from the blue line with one goal and 10 assists in nine games. Five of his assists have come with the man advantage, and he's fired 18 shots. Morrissey isn't a 100-point defender as his pace would project. But this could still be a career season -- his previous best is 76 points, including 16 goals, which he set in 2022-23. He's a worthy fantasy number one.

Morrissey banked two assists in Sunday's 6-3 win over Pittsburgh.
EDGE Analysis
Morrissey added one shot, five blocks, one hit and a plus-2 rating with a team-high 22:09 of ice time. Winnipeg's No. 1 defenseman is on fire to start the 2024-25 campaign -- he's riding a five-game point streak (one goal, six assists). Two of Morrissey's points have come on the man advantage, and he's added 10 shots, 13 blocks and a plus-7 rating through five contests. The 29-year-old will attempt to extend his point streak to six games against the Blues on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis
Morrissey's first goal of the season came 1:59 into the game. He's added four assists over four games, opening the season on a point streak. The 29-year-old defenseman also has nine shots on net, eight blocked shots and a plus-5 rating. He's a high-end fantasy blueliner not just for his offense -- he can pile up shots and blocks while carrying a strong plus-minus rating.
