Morrissey suffered an upper-body injury after being hit by Vinnie Hinostroza on Sunday and will miss the entire month of March. Head coach Paul Maurice his “window” to return “opens in April.” The Jets obviously knew this was the case, which is why they went out and got Nathan Beaulieu and Bogdan Kiselevich on Monday.

Morrissey suffered an upper-body injury after being in Arizona on Sunday and there is fear that he could miss an extended period of time. The Jets went out and acquired a few depth defenseman at the trade deadline, which suggests there could be some truth to that. Morrissey will return to Winnipeg to be re-evaluated and they should provide a more detailed update after that.

Schenn will make his Canucks debut after they tried Erik Gudbranson to the Penguins. Schenn has put up solid numbers in the AHL (1G / 4A in seven games) but has just 15 points (2G / 13A) in his last 150 NHL games.

Pearson got off to a nice start in Pittsburgh but dropped down the depth chart after they added Nick Bjugstad and Jared McCann. Overall, Pearson has nine goals and six assists (15 points) in 61 games between the Kings and Penguins. He has a much better chance to play in the Canucks top-6 and could slot onto the top line with Bo Horvat right away.

Nyquist has enjoyed a quality campaign while playing mostly with Dylan Larkin, who is having a breakout season of his own. Nyquist has scored 15 goals with 33 assists (48 points) in 61 games with the Red Wings and the pending free agent heads to San Jose where he joins one of the deepest forward groups in the NHL. With the Sharks’ top-6 pretty much cemented in place, the third line with Joe Thornton seems like a logical landing spot for Nqyuist.

Hellebuyck allowed seven goals on 46 shots in the Jets blowout loss in Colorado on Wednesday. Hellebuyck has had a tough time recently, losing four of his last six starts (2-3-1) with a 3.82 GAA and .906 SV%. The 25-year-old netminder has gone 10-10- with a 3.12 GAA and .910 SV% in 21 road games this season.

Miller played just 13:41 TOI on Monday and has just two assists in his last 10 games. Miller skated as an extra in Wednesday’s morning skate, so look for Nick Holden to replace him on the third pair.

Hellebuyck allowed four goals on 35 shots in the Jets loss to the Avalanche last Thursday. Laurent Brossoit started on Saturday, so Hellebuyck comes into Wednesday’s game very well rested and ready to face the Avalanche again. The 25-year-old has gone 2-1-0 with a 3.34 GAA and .906 SV% in three games vs. Colorado this season.

Schenn played in eight games with the Ducks earlier this season but has been in the AHL since being traded to the Canucks. Since the trade, Schenn, who is not known for his offence, has five points (1G / 4A) in seven games. He should make his Canucks debut on the weekend with both Chris Tanev and Alexander Edler out.

Hellebuyck allowed three goals on 37 shots in the Jets win over the Rangers on Tuesday. Hellebuyck has gone 5-1-1 with a 2.95 GAA and .920 SV% in his last seven starts. Tonight he will face the Jets for the third time this season—he is 2-0-0 with a 3.00 GAA and .915 SV% in the first two meetings.
