The Winnipeg Jets have signed defenseman Josh Morrissey to a two-year extension worth $3.15 million per year, the team announced Sunday.

Morrissey was the Jets' only remaining restricted free agent.

In 81 games with Winnipeg last season, the 23-year-old netted seven goals and 19 assists. He also finished fourth among Jets defensemen with just over 20 minutes in average ice time.

In 164 career games, Morrissey has notched 13 goals and 33 assists.

The Jets selected Morrissey with the 13th overall pick in the 2013 draft.
