Top Gabriel Vilardi News

  • Jets' Gabriel Vilardi: Two-point effort in Detroit

    Vilardi produced a goal and an assist in Wednesday's 6-2 win over the Red Wings.

    Both points came in the first period, and Vilardi opened the scoring by snapping home a slick pass from Kyle Connor just 2:48 into the game. Vilardi was one of the rare Jets to have a quiet start to the season, but the 25-year-old has now posted back-to-back multi-point performances and has three goals and eight points through 10 contests.

  • Jets' Gabriel Vilardi: One of each in loss

    Vilardi scored a goal on two shots and added a power-play assist in Monday's 6-4 loss to the Maple Leafs.

    The Jets didn't get much depth scoring in their first loss of the season, but the top line was in fine form. Vilardi, Mark Scheifele and Kyle Connor combined for all four goals and a total of eight points in the loss. Vilardi hasn't started as well as his linemates but still has two goals, six points (three on the power play), 12 shots on net and a minus-4 rating over nine outings. As long as he's on the top line, the 25-year-old should be a reliable scoring-only option for fantasy managers.

  • Jets' Gabriel Vilardi: Nets first goal of season

    Vilardi scored a goal on three shots and blocked two shots in Thursday's 4-3 overtime win over the Kraken.

    The goal was Vilardi's first of the season. The 25-year-old winger has maintained a top-line role at even strength, but he hasn't enjoyed the same success as his linemates Mark Scheifele and Kyle Connor. Through seven contests, Vilardi has four points, eight shots on net and a minus-2 rating. As long as he stays on the top line, he'll have ample upside.

  • Jets' Gabriel Vilardi: Adds pair of assists

    Vilardi recorded two assists in Friday's 8-3 win over the Sharks.

    One of Vilardi's helpers came on the power play. The 25-year-old continues to play in a top-line role, and he saw 21:23 of ice time Friday while compiling his first multi-point effort of the season. He's earned three assists (two on the power play) and four shots on net through four contests, but he's not adding much else in the way of non-scoring numbers. That's not unusual, as Vilardi is a skilled forward, but his fantasy value will be closely tied to his offense.

  • Jets' Gabriel Vilardi: Registers power-play helper

    Vilardi notched a power-play assist in Wednesday's 6-0 win over the Oilers.

    Vilardi helped out on a Mark Scheifele tally in the third period. The 25-year-old Vilardi is getting the first chance to make an impact on the Jets' top line, playing right wing alongside Scheifele and Kyle Connor. In his first year with the Jets, Vilardi had 22 goals and 14 assists over 47 regular-season games in a campaign disrupted by two major injuries. He could find another level on offense if he stays healthy, but he's yet to play in more than 63 games in a single season after back injuries early in his career and last season's battles with a knee injury and an enlarged spleen.

  • Jets' Gabriel Vilardi: Can he keep doctors away?

    Vilardi set up three goals in a 5-2 win over Calgary in preseason action on Wednesday.

    Vilardi is coming off his best point-per-game season (36 points, including 22 goals, in 47 games) and is poised for a career season. Vilardi is poised for regular shifts beside star veterans Kyle Connor and Mark Scheifele, and that near point-per-game average could deliver 65-70 points if he can stay healthy. But he's never played more than 63 regular-season games in a season, so have a contingency plan.

  • Jets' Gabriel Vilardi: Slides assist Tuesday

    Vilardi recorded a power-play assist, three shots on goal, two hits and a minus-2 rating in Tuesday's 6-3 loss to the Avalanche in Game 5.

    Vilardi picked up four helpers, nine shots on net, four hits, six PIM and a minus-4 rating over five playoff contests. The 24-year-old had 36 points in just 47 regular-season outings, frequently featuring in a top-six role for the Jets. He is under contract for 2024-25 and should return to a similar assignment, which could put him in line for a breakout year before he reaches restricted free agency.

  • Jets' Gabriel Vilardi: Adds helper in loss

    Vilardi notched an assist, two shots on goal, two PIM and a minus-2 rating in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Avalanche in Game 2.

    Vilardi has earned three helpers through two playoff contests. He's also recorded four shots on net while seeing top-line minutes. His scoring upside is limited compared to his linemates Mark Scheifele and Kyle Connor, but Vilardi could have some extra fantasy appeal if he stays in a first-line role throughout the playoffs.

  • Jets' Gabriel Vilardi: Produces two assists

    Vilardi registered two assists, two shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 7-6 win over the Avalanche in Game 1.

    Vilardi had six goals over the last seven games of the campaign, but his last assist was Feb. 25, two games before he was held out with an enlarged spleen. The 24-year-old has held down a top-line role since his return, and he set up goals by linemates Mark Scheifele and Kyle Connor in this contest. It's still early in the postseason, but Vilardi could achieve breakout status if he stays in that place in the lineup.

  • Jets' Gabriel Vilardi: Adds 20th goal

    Vilardi scored a goal on three shots in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime win over Nashville.

    Vilardi got the Jets on the board 6:51 into the first period, beating Juuse Saros with a nifty between-the-legs shot on the power play to tie the game 1-1. The 24-year-old Vilardi now has four goals in five games since returning from a month-long stint on IR. Overall, he's up to 20 goals and 34 points through 43 games this season while skating in a top-line role.

  • Jets' Gabriel Vilardi: Hat trick in Thursday's win

    Vilardi scored three goals on nine shots in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Flames.

    One goal was on the power play and the last one went into an empty net. Vilardi had gone scoreless over his last four contests, two on each side of a four-week absence with an enlarged spleen. The 24-year-old is up to 19 goals, 33 points, 108 shots on net and a plus-11 rating through just 41 contests this season. He's seen time on the first line lately, though the Jets' forward combinations remain unsettled. Vilardi's a lock for the top six and should also continue to see plenty of power-play usage, so he's a strong depth option in fantasy.

  • Jets' Gabriel Vilardi: Returning Saturday

    Vilardi (enlarged spleen) will be back in the lineup Saturday versus Ottawa, according to Mitchell Clinton of the Jets' official site.

    It has been a tough four weeks for Vilardi, who will return to the top line, alongside Kyle Connor and Mark Scheifele. Vilardi missed 15 games and the Jets struggled, going 7-7-1. Vilardi has 16 goals and 30 points in just 38 games this season, including six goals and 11 points on the power play.

  • Jets' Gabriel Vilardi: Diagnosed with enlarged spleen

    Per Mitchell Clinton of the Jets' official site, Vilardi has been diagnosed with an enlarged spleen, the Jets announced Friday.

    Vilardi will miss his eighth straight game Friday when the Jets host Anaheim. He is being treated, but he will miss the upcoming five-game road trip that begins in Columbus on Saturday. Vilardi has 16 goals and 30 points in 38 contests this season. There is no timetable for his return.

  • Jets' Gabriel Vilardi: Unavailable for Friday

    Vilardi (upper body) will miss Friday's game against Anaheim, per Mitchell Clinton of the Jets' official site.

    Vilardi hasn't been in the lineup since Feb. 29. He has 16 goals and 30 points in 38 appearances in 2023-24. Vilardi will probably play in a top-six capacity once he returns, though the Jets' acquisition of Tyler Toffoli last Friday might complicate that.

  • Jets' Gabriel Vilardi: Still not skating

    Vilardi (upper body) has yet to resume skating but is expected to get back on the ice soon, Mitchell Clinton of the Jets' official site reports Monday.

    At best, Vilardi might be skating ahead of Friday's clash with Anaheim, but his return to action for that contest seems questionable for the time being. Due to his upper-body injury, the 24-year-old forward has already been out of the lineup for the Jets' last five contests. With the addition of Tyler Toffoli at the trade deadline, Vilardi could be in danger of losing his top-six role even once cleared to play.

  • Jets' Gabriel Vilardi: Will miss next two contests

    Vilardi (upper body) will miss Winnipeg's next two games, per Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press.

    The Jets will play Friday in Seattle and Saturday in Vancouver without Vilardi. The 24-year-old forward has 16 goals and 30 points in 38 contests this season. He hasn't been in the lineup since last Thursday, but Vilardi should serve in a top-six capacity once he's healthy.

  • Jets' Gabriel Vilardi: Out Tuesday

    Vilardi (upper body) will miss Tuesday's contest at home against Seattle, per Mike McIntyre of the Winnipeg Free Press.

    Vilardi will miss his third consecutive game but will travel with the team ahead of a two-game road trip. The 24-year-old has put together a nice season, recording 16 goals and 14 assists in only 38 games played. If he can manage to stay healthy, he will be a big piece for the Jets heading into the playoffs.

  • Jets' Gabriel Vilardi: Not playing Saturday

    Vilardi (upper body) will not play Saturday in Carolina, Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press reports.

    Vilardi's role in the lineup could be taken by Vladislav Namestnikov, who would move up from the third line to play with Mark Scheifele and Kyle Connor. David Gustafsson will enter the lineup to replace Vilardi on the roster. Vilardi could return Sunday in Buffalo. He has 16 goals and 30 points in 38 games this season.

  • Jets' Gabriel Vilardi: Travels back to Winnipeg

    Vilardi (upper body) has gone back to Winnipeg for further evaluation, Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press reports.

    Vilardi is poised to miss his second straight game Sunday against Buffalo after he sat out Saturday's 5-3 win over Carolina. The 24-year-old forward has 16 goals, 30 points and 93 shots on net in 38 appearances this season.
