Winnipeg Jets Suffer a Playoff Series-Altering Loss
The Winnipeg Jets are currently in a fight with the Vegas Golden Knights to move to the next round in the Western Conference playoffs.
They need all the help they can get because despite the series being tied, the Knights have all the tools they need to come from behind, along with Bruce Cassidy on the bench.
Winnipeg Jet's defenseman Josh Morrissey aka Josh "Norrissey" depending upon who you talk to, has left the game against Vegas with a lower-body injury.
Morrissey had originally returned to the bench after taking a hit from the Golden Knights defenseman, Zach Whitecloud, but he has exited Game 3 and will not return tonight, injury not specified, but the worst is confirmed... he is out for the entire series.
Morrisy has had a career year, putting up 16 goals and 60 assists this season for 76 points in 78 games.
