One of the Winnipeg Jets‘ top scorers is getting closer to returning.
Gabriel Vilardi, who’s been out of the lineup with an upper-body injury, was on the ice for warmups but will not play Game 4 against the Blues on Sunday. Head coach Scott Arniel listed Vilardi as a game-time decision on Saturday.
Vilardi last played on March 23 against Buffalo and was initially ruled out as week-to-week. In 71 games this season, the 25-year-old posted a career-best 27 goals and 34 assists for 61 points.
The forward first returned to practice on Monday in a non-contact injury, before ditching it for a regular jersey on Saturday.
On defence, Hadyn Fleury draws in for Logan Stanley.
Puck drop for Game 4 is at 1 p.m. ET/noon CT on Sportsnet and Sportsnet +. The series heads back to Winnipeg on Wednesday at 9:30 p.m ET/8:30 p.m. CT.
