Tonight, Winnipeg Jets head coach Scott Arniel has provided updates on when we could see Josh Morrissey the Jets' newest trade arrivals in the lineup.
The Winnipeg Jets made several major shake ups to their roster over the last 24 hours trading away several key veteran pieces.
Particularly on defense, where the Jets traded away veterans Luke Schenn and Logan Stanley while already being depleted due to injuries to top stars on the back end.
Luckily, tonight the Jets were able to provide some positive injury news on Josh Morrissey and confirm when new arrivals Isak Rosen and Jacob Bryson will debut.
