Smacks of desperation by the Jet's. The Blues put the body on Scheifele, and took the time and space away from Connor. Think they are feeling their offense is drying up... Blues need to stay out of the box and the Jet's will continue having a difficult time putting the puck in the net...

Only helps if he has the pain tolerance to take hits. He will increase their production on the ice if healthy, but won't be quite as good as he would otherwise be if Ehlers isn't also out there (they still are going to be mostly a 2 line team).

We'll know one way or another in about 24 hours how it helped

And, if he does make a difference, maybe we'll just offer sheet him in the off season ::crazya::

The Blues don’t have their 2026 2nd round pick so they cannot currently make a competitive offer for Vilardi

From the article you linked:

"He did not partake in line rushes, which tends to indicate he won't be returning for Sunday's afair."

Help me out....... where's the link?

If he's back no way this good news for Blues but fact is they need to tend to their own jobs as they did Thursday night and not worry about what the Jets are doing or who they are playing.

Sounds like another target for the Blues to pulverize

If he's been out awhile it will most likely take him a few games to get up to speed.

Hes not though. He just returned to practice. He may for game 5 but miniscule chance today.

I think Vilardi is a game time decision.

I see an early August morning trade that has people saying “why are we doing a straight draft pick trade today, are the GM’s bored”.

Hahaha...agreed....but if he does that he might as well put up a billboard with his plans on it.

All joking aside, I doubt the Blues who go the offer sheet route two straight years. It did add a ton of excitement to last August though.
