Josh Morrissey figures he has more close friends on the Edmonton Oilers than any other rival NHL team. It led to some unusual heat-of-the-moment conversations for the Winnipeg defenceman the night of March 11, after news broke during the Jets’ game at Rogers Place that the NBA was suspending its season in the wake of Utah Jazz star Rudy Gobert’s positive test for COVID-19. In the heat of a playoff race, uncertainty was in the air. One thing, however, seemed crystal clear. “We saw the writing on the wall,” Morrissey recalled this week of the on-ice conversations between whistles. “That was probably our last game.” At least in the short- and medium-term, they were right.

So Samberg returned to the University of Minnesota-Duluth — where he had already won two national championships — for a third season. Fans were assured he remained committed to Winnipeg, but it left a lingering doubt about his future with the Jets.
