The Winnipeg Jets` defensive lineup might see changes for Game 2 against the Dallas Stars.
According to head coach Scott Arniel, defensemen Josh Morrissey and Logan Stanley participated in practice on Thursday wearing regular contact jerseys. Their availability for Friday`s game is currently listed as a game-time decision.
Morrissey left Game 7 of the previous series against the St. Louis Blues during the first period after taking a hit into the boards from Oskar Sundqvist.
In the first six games of the first-round series, Morrissey recorded three assists and averaged 23:30 of ice time. Over 80 regular-season games, the 30-year-old defenseman tallied 14 goals and 48 assists.
Stanley has played in five playoff games this postseason, registering no points, a minus-2 rating, and 42 penalty minutes. He was replaced in the lineup by Haydn Fleury, who logged 33:02 in the Game 7 double-overtime victory.
Dallas took Game 1 of the series on Wednesday with a 3-2 score, highlighted by Mikko Rantanen`s second consecutive hat trick.
Game 2 is scheduled for Friday at 9:30 p.m. ET / 8:30 p.m. CT.
