Player Discussion: Gabriel "The Net Front King" Vilardi

[Guffman]

I was just thinking about this...

Connor - Scheifele - Iafallo (as much as I want KC and Scheif separated, that aint happening especially how they have played the last few)

Perfetti - Namestinikov - Vilardi OR Ehlers - Perfetti - Vilardi Coaches seem hesitant to play Perfetti at C

Nino - Lowry - Appleton is a lock

Barron - Gus - Kupari is a decent 4th line. IF Namestnikov is moved down I suppose Gus is the odd man out?

For your second line, if you went with your first suggestion of Perfetti- Stinky-Vilardi, where are you slotting Ehlers?

I think Stinky is destined to the fourth line (once Vilardi is conditioned enough to fit back somewhere on the top two lines).

Volare is a song not a hockey player.

And KFC is a fast food chain, not a hockey player. Yet, here we are...

toni loaned to the moose so seems likely vilardi is back tomorrow night

guess not

Ahhh, beats me.

4th line Ehlers?

Good thing I am not the coach / GM.

With his injury history, this guy really needs to change his jersey number from 13 to something else.

because he is getting injured cuz he wears #13?????????

Temu Selanne wore that number in his rookie year and set a scoring record........a bit of a tribute to him to wear that number for the Jets.

Or HFJets Forum legend Kyle Wellwood...

But in Finnish 13 actually translates into 31 so it's reverse bad luck which becomes finnish Goodluck. Then switching to 8 actually translates into 13 which means double knee surgery. It's all in the translation.

He wore 13 because Carlyle had 8.

The fear of #13 is a North American thing.

Good thing because i picked him to score 1st tomorrow.

Ya looks like they are starting him on the 4th line but he was on the 1st PP unit. Looks like they are going with Scheifele, Connor and Ehlers on the 1st line and Iafallo dropping to the second with Namestnikov and Perfetti.

 

[JetsFan815]

Man Vilardi sounds pretty down in that interview

 

[larmex99]

I like his direct responses. No cliches, just honest answers.

 

[bustamente]

If he starts on either of the bottom six lines it wont take long till he is moved up to the top six. I think they are more concerned about how his leg responds for his first game back

 

[Flyby]

I didn’t see him as down. I thought he came across more pissed off that it was an injury caused by a dirty play that didn’t need to happen.

 

[DRW204]

brah just do the full nate schmidt with the hair.

 

[roccerfeller]

Agree

From a former teammate no less

If anything positive to take that he is a bit frustrated, we can expect he’ll be playing with some bite to his game

 

[raideralex99]

Good on Vilardi to call out Lizotte … I thought it was a dirty move done on purpose.

 

[JetsFan815]

Jets play the Kings again in a couple of weeks. I wonder if Lizotte will have to answer the bell. Lizotte is also the King who cross-checked Morrissey in the face.

 

[ps241]

Good he’s back. Gave is the top asset in that trade and I look forward him establishing himself again.

Best of health Gabby!
