Linesman Jonny Murray was helped off the ice in the second period after taking a hit to the right leg from Colorado Avalanche defenseman Devon Toews, and he missed most of the remainder of the game.

Murray resumed his duties at the start of the third period but left soon after and didn’t return again as the Jets won 3-2 in overtime.

Toews was pursuing Winnipeg forward Kyle Connor in the Jets zone and clipped Murray near his right knee at 7:26 of the period. Murray, down on his hands and knees, was attended to by Colorado trainers.

He got to his feet and skated off with help and went back toward the Avalanche dressing room.

Play continued with Tyson Baker serving as the only linesman except for the brief time when Murray was back early in the third period.
