Josh Morrissey Will Not Play On Thursday
1 day agoWinnipeg Jets defenseman Josh Morrissey (illness) will miss Thursday's 4 Nations Face-Off finale against Team USA. According to Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman, Morrissey is battling an illness. The Canadians lost Shea Theodore (upper body) early in the tournament, and Morrissey's absence is another setback for the blue line. Thomas Harley of the Dallas Stars will join the lineup as Morrissey's replacement, marking his second appearance in the 4 Nations Face-Off. Harley also played in Saturday's matchup against the U.S. He went scoreless in 18:17 of play, finishing with two shots on goal, three blocked shots, one hit, and a minus-one rating.
