AutoDraft Pro AI

Winnipeg Jets defenseman Josh Morrissey (undisclosed) will miss Canada's 2026 Winter Olympics game against Switzerland on Friday and their final group-stage game versus France on Sunday. The 30-year-old left Thursday's 5-0 victory over Czechia due to the injury. Canada has secured the top spot in Group A, allowing Morrissey to avoid risking further injury. While not ruled out for the remainder of the Olympics, his availability for the quarterfinals remains uncertain. Shea Theodore is expected to fill his spot.
