We are way better off with Vilardi playing than not . What this did show with Vilardi's injury is Iafallo can definitely move up the lineup if we need him to .I have to wonder if Vilardi will be a plus or minus over Iafallo ? Gabe is not the 2 way defensive player that Iafallo is, but Gabe has better scoring hands, and a lot better.
I wonder which player would suit the Jets better, for playoff hockey? As we know, playoff hockey is a lot tighter, and more defensive.
