Value of: Gabriel Vilardi

[derkejohnlee]

RFA that has had a terrific year. Has had injury troubles in the past. Due for a pretty big raise. What will his next contract look like? Is he at risk of a team putting in an offer sheet (is he eligible this year?)

He seems like a 9M+ guy in the market

His value equals one dubois. I thought that had long been established by Blake.

If these players are the real deal or just looking for a cash out I would say we can get Vilardi and Ehlers signed up for a few cup runs at 6X8ish. These two guys have the option to keep building their legacy and the teams.

If they want to much and way more than that, there's more than few Nashville's out there that will build paper tiger teams that can't gel.

No. Dubois equals Vilardi, Iafallo, Kupari, and a second. Kuemper equals Dubois, so LA should be able to get Vilardi+ for Kuemper or Vilardi straight up for Rittich. It's math.

Anaheim ?

I bet he stays in WPG. I think he stays in what is a great situation playing with Scheif and Connor.

 

[BonMorrison]

He ain't going anywhere. Easily worth 7.5/8M especially with cap going up.

Nashville signed old, has beens...these guys are in their primes.

Would kill to get him back.

I think he likes it in Winnipeg, he’s treated pretty well by the team and loved by the fans. First line usage with a clear role and great line mates, PP1 time, and he’s breaking out. Chevy will do everything to keep him around long term. He’s definitely worth 8-9 million, I can see him (and hopefully Ehlers) signing the Scheifele contract.

 

[Eegs]

Is it just me, or does Gabe's skating look much improved this season as well? It looks to me like he's really worked on it and is able to keep up with the play better and not be gassed after 25 seconds.

He'll never be a burner, but he looks a fair bit better imo

For what its worth he mentioned in an article a month or so ago that he's "found a home" on the top line with Scheifele and Connor. Said he was never really given the chance/saw himself as a top line forward until now. Sounds like he's happy. I think he stays long term.
