In an intense second-round playoff matchup, the Winnipeg Jets are set to face the Dallas Stars in Game 2, having fallen behind 0-1 in the series. The Jets are expected to welcome back star defenseman Josh Morrissey, whose absence was felt during their first game. Morrissey, a critical piece of Winnipeg's defense, was sidelined due to an injury sustained in the first round against the St. Louis Blues.

His return is likely to provide a significant boost to the Jets' performance on home ice, especially given his impressive record of 14 goals and 48 assists in the regular season. With the stakes high, the Jets need to leverage their strong roster and experience to avoid a deeper hole as they strive to even the series against a formidable opponent.
