Josh Morrissey Injury | Winnipeg Jets Star Defenceman Exits Game vs Czechia After Scary Blow
Josh Morrissey suddenly vanished from the ice, and fans immediately sensed something was wrong. During Canada’s Olympic opener at the Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics, the star defenseman skated just over seven minutes before heading to the locker room and never returning.

The exact cause of the injury is still unclear. Some reports suggest Morrissey may have collided with Martin Nečas, while others point to contact involving Ondřej Palát. What stood out most was that Morrissey actually tried to return, but after a short attempt, he had to shut it down, which usually signals real discomfort.
Head coach Jon Cooper later said the team hopes the injury is not serious, but no timeline or diagnosis has been released yet. That uncertainty is what has fans worried, especially with another game approaching fast.
Canada still dominated the match, winning 5 to 0, but losing a key piece like Morrissey, even temporarily, could have ripple effects. With no update yet, everyone is watching and waiting.
