Winnipeg Jets' Gabriel Vilardi has not skated yet, and it is starting to add some concerns to fans that he may not be healthy and ready to go for Game 1. It's that time of year in the <a href='https://www.hockeylatest.com/nhl/injuries/scott-arniel-drops-big-update-on-dylan-samberg-after-leaving-game-with-injury' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>NHL where injury news is few and far between</a> and coaches and general managers become very mysterious, where they don't want to be too open, if they ever even are. Winger Gabriel Vilardi of the Jets <a href='https://www.hockeylatest.com/nhl-team/winnipeg-jets/horrible-news-emerges-regarding-gabe-vilardi-status-for-the-rest-of-the-season' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>was injured during the Sabres game on March 23rd</a>. On the following day, the report broke that he'd be out of the lineup on a week-to-week basis. <div align='center' class='pl20 pr20'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/JohnLuTSNWpg/status/1904237591375089744'> </a></blockquote></div> Weeks went by, and Vilardi remained far from being back, not even hitting the weight room. The latest update, uploaded a week or so back, had Scott Arniel saying Vilardi was nearly in a position to get on the ice but wasn't yet. <div align='center' class='pl20 pr20'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/WPGMurat/status/1909268459554283604'> </a></blockquote></div> <h3>It appears that Vilardi may have suffered a setback based on Arniel's comments</h3> Fast-forward to the present, as the Winnipeg Jets welcomed the Edmonton Oilers last night. After the post-morning skate, Arniel addressed the situation regarding <a href='https://www.nhl.com/jets/player/gabriel-vilardi-8480014' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>Vilardi</a> by saying, No. Not yet. Close, not yet. We did learn on Sunday that Jets winger Gabriel Vilardi hadn't yet been on the ice as he continues to work his way back to the lineup. We shall have to see if that changes this week because if it doesn't you have to wonder about his playoff availability in the first round. With the playoffs looming in about a week, Vilardi's availability for Game 1 seems uncertain, leaving fans waiting to see how the upcoming week unfolds.
