Josh Morrissey Opens Up About Overcoming Loss and More
2021 was the last time the Winnipeg Jets were in the playoffs and Josh Morrissey was playing under the weight of more than just a city’s Stanley Cup aspirations: his father, Tom, was nearing the end of a difficult battle with brain cancer.
Elliotte Friedman sits down with Josh and several teammates in Winnipeg to talk about navigating that time, the lasting lessons Tom impressed on Josh, and how Josh has matured to become the cornerstone of the Jets back end.
