Morrison wasn't qualified by Florida, which means he'll become an unrestricted free agent Wednesday, CapFriendly reports.
Morrison hasn't appeared in an NHL contest since being selected in the fourth round of the 2015 Entry Draft and he split time between the AHL and ECHL last season. He'll likely hope to catch on with a new NHL club on a two-way deal.

Blackhawks' Brad Morrison: Traded to Chicago
Rotowire
Morrison was traded to the Blackhawks by the Kings on Sunday in exchange for Olli Maatta.
Morrison was a fourth-round pick by the Kings in the 2015 draft out of Lethbridge in the WHL. The 23-year-old supplied 20 points for AHL Ontario in 2018-19, and 19 points across 17 games in the ECHL for Fort Wayne this past campaign. Morrison could suit up for AHL Rockford next season, but the trade was essentially a salary dump to move Maatta's $4 million contract off the books for Chicago.
