As the Jets players appeared one final time to clear out their lockers, some injury updates were provided regarding Josh Morrissey and Luke Schenn.
The Winnipeg Jets spoke to the media on Tuesday, just a few days after their season ended with a 2-1 overtime loss to the Dallas Stars in Game 6 of the second round.
With a terrific regular season, securing the Presidents' Trophy with 116 points and a league-leading 56 wins, their playoff run was short.
Winnipeg went through a savage seven-game series against St. Louis in Round 1, completing an unbelievable Game 7 comeback on two late scores and Adam Lowry's overtime goal.
But the team continued to be winless on the road throughout the playoffs, a primary contributor to their downfall.
Jets defenseman Luke Schenn revealed that he suffered two cracked ribs during Game 2 against the Blues but played through the pain.
'It didn't feel great.'- Luke Schenn
Josh Morrissey, injured in Game 6, stated he won't require surgery but admitted the issue most likely would have had him out for the remainder of the playoffs.
Top goalie Connor Hellebuyck, a Vezina Trophy contender, demonstrated brilliance with two shutouts against Dallas, but his entire post-season line (5-7 record, .866 save percentage, 3.08 GAA) fell far short of his dominant regular season output.
Mark Scheifele did not speak to the media following dressing for Game 6 as he is likely still in shock over the sudden passing of his father. Head coach Scott Arniel and GM Kevin Cheveldayoff will address the media on Wednesday.
