Day 7 interviews: In case you missed anything from Wednesday we spoke with Dylan DeMelo (watch here), Gabriel Vilardi (watch here) as well as head coach Scott Arniel (watch here).
Note: The seventh day of training camp was a gameday with the Jets hosting the Oilers last night in Winnipeg. And by Oilers I mean Bakersfield Condors as it was a very AHL heavy roster for the visitors which is why the home team rolled to a 6-0 lead on goals by Nikolaj Ehlers (here), Kyle Connor (here), Colin Miller (here), Neal Pionk (here), Brad Lambert (here) and Adam Lowry (here) before the visitors added one late. Final score was 6-1 for Winnipeg as they earned their first victory of the pre-season.
Note II: Today the two groups are scheduled to practice at 11 AM and 1 PM as they get ready for tomorrow night’s fourth exhibition game which will take place in St. Paul against the Wild.
