Gabriel Vilardi Injury Update

The injury bug is an unfortunate gift that always keeps on giving. The Winnipeg Jets are taking their turn early on this carousel.

After Winnipeg’s tire fire of a loss to the Los Angeles Kings on Tuesday, October 17, there was concern for multiple Winnipeg Jets forwards. Still, alas, we have clarity surrounding Gabriel Vilardi. Gabriel Vilardi left early in the first period with an evident injury to his lower body. Today, October 18, the Winnipeg Jets and head coach Rick Bowness confirmed that the newly acquired Gabriel Vilardi is out with an MCL sprain. This injury is expected to keep the Jets right-winger out from 4-6 weeks.

Vilardi was beginning his season strong with the Winnipeg Jets as he started on the first line with Kyle Connor and Mark Scheifele. The 24-year-old has recorded one assist over two games in his debut season with the Winnipeg Jets.

This injury will see Jets forward Mason Appleton receive an unexpected promotion to the top line. There will be a lot of interesting moves ahead of game four against the Vegas Golden Knights.
