The Winnipeg Jets came into tonight's must win Game 6 needing all hands on deck. Unfortunately, heading into the third period that will no longer be possible for the Jets as defenseman Josh Morrissey has suffered a lower-body injury. Morrissey came into this game expected to be one of the x-factors for the Jets if they were going to extend the series to 7 games. Instead, Morrissey will now miss the third period for the Jets due to a brutal injury he suffered in the second period. The injury was sustained toward the end of the second period when Morrissey collided with Stars forward Mikko Rantanen. <div align='center' class='pl20 pr20'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/icdave/status/1923918159506977184'><div style='border:1px solid #CCCCCC;border-radius:10px;padding:20px;width:300px;'>Loading from Twitter ...</div></a></blockquote></div> Moments later, Morrissey was seen leaving the ice without putting any pressure on his left leg. <div align='center' class='pl20 pr20'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/FriedgeHNIC/status/1923917663031488923'><div style='border:1px solid #CCCCCC;border-radius:10px;padding:20px;width:300px;'>Loading from Twitter ...</div></a></blockquote></div> <div align='center' class='pl20 pr20'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/sportsnet/status/1923919003598151905'><div style='border:1px solid #CCCCCC;border-radius:10px;padding:20px;width:300px;'>Loading from Twitter ...</div></a></blockquote></div> As he was heading off the ice, Morrissey seemed to grab his knee indicating that was the area of concern for this injury. <div align='center' class='pl20 pr20'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/roberttiffin/status/1923919002394365956'><div style='border:1px solid #CCCCCC;border-radius:10px;padding:20px;width:300px;'>Loading from Twitter ...</div></a></blockquote></div> At the end of the period it was unknown whether Morrissey would return for the Jets in the third. <h3>Josh Morrissey Ruled Out For The Third Period Of Must Win Game 6</h3> Now, it has been confirmed by Elliotte Friedman that Morrissey will remain out for the rest of tonight's contest. <div align='center' class='pl20 pr20'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/friedgehnic/status/1923924759563145477'><div style='border:1px solid #CCCCCC;border-radius:10px;padding:20px;width:300px;'>Loading from Twitter ...</div></a></blockquote></div> This injury is a huge blow the Jets lineup as Morrissey is by far their best defenseman and was a minute eating option on the back end.

Now, the Jets will have to turn to other players like Neal Pionk to fill the void and extend this series to a winner take all Game 7.
