Gabriel Landeskog News

Landeskog has not played since the 2021-22 season and still doesn't have definitive timeline for a return but has continued skating with the team and will join them on their upcoming road trip. Landeskog missed the entire 2022-23 regular season as he recovered from knee surgery and followed that up with a cartilage transplant in his right knee during the offseason. The 30-year-old has 571 points (248G/323A) and a +77 plus/minus across 738 career NHL games.

There is no timeline for a Landeskog return, and he was skating alone, but it was still encouraging to see him at the Avalanche practice facility on Thursday. Landeskog missed the entire 2022-23 regular season as he recovered from knee surgery and followed that up with a cartilage transplant in his right knee during the offseason. The 30-year-old has 571 points (248G/323A) and a +77 plus/minus across 738 career NHL games.

Landeskog missed the entire 2022-23 regular season as he recovered from knee surgery and will now go back under the knife for a cartilage transplant in his right knee which will cause him to miss the 2023-24 season as well. It is a tough loss for the Avalanche as their captain has not played since hoisting the Stanley Cup in 2022. The 30-year-old has 571 points (248G/323A) and a +77 plus/minus across 738 career NHL games played.

Landeskog, who had surgery on his knee prior to the playoffs last season, has not played this season. He's been on the ice gearing up to play in the postseason but the Avalanche announced on Thursday that he will not be available during the 20223 playoffs.

The Avalanche captain will be out until at least late January after it was announced Wednesday he had knee surgery which should hold him out for at least 12 weeks. It is tough news for the Avalanche after the 29-year-old scored 30 goals in 51 games after an injury-shortened season in 2021-22.

The Avalanche had provided very few details regarding Landeskog's status, so the fact that he's expected to return to the ice this week, suggests he won't be sidelined for an extended period of time. Expect updates to be more and more frequent as he ramps up his rehab.

Landeskog is dealing with an injury from last season and will not skate "anytime soon," according to head coach Jared Bednar. Landeskog will miss the start of the season, but it's unclear how long he will be sidelined.

Landeskog underwent a procedure on his knee in mid-March and resumed skating this week. All signs are pointing toward Landeskog being on track to be ready for Game 1 of the playoffs.

Landeskog has been dealing with a nagging knee injury for "a little bit." He'll undergo surgery and the Avalanche are hopeful that he'll be back for the start of the playoffs but they will know more after the surgery. This is obviously a terrible blow for the Avalanche but they are virtually locked into the playoffs, so they will give Landeskog the opportunity to get right ahead of what they hope is a lengthy playoff run.

Landeskog has missed the last three games while in COVID-19 protocol but is expected to play Saturday. Landeskog, who has 31 points (12G / 19A) in his last 21 games, will be back on the top line and top power-play unit.

Landeskog, who was named the first star in the NHL last week, will miss Monday's game vs. the Kraken. Valeri Nichushkin will return from an upper-body injury and will replace Landeskog in the lineup on Monday.

Landeskog completed his two-game suspension and will return to the lineup tonight in Florida. Landeskog will likely return to the top line with Nathan MacKinnon and Mikko Rantanen--he had one goal and one assist in the Avalanche season opener.

Landeskog planted Kirby Dach into the centre ice boards in Wednesday's win over the Blackhawks and will miss Saturday's game vs. St. Louis and Tuesday's game in Washington. He is eligible to play next Thursday in Florida.

The Avalanche waited until the final moments to sign Landeskog to a max eight-year contract worth $7.0M AAV. Landeskog will turn 29 this year, so he will be 36-years-old when the deal wraps up. Landeskog has been outstanding during the two shortened campaigns, scoring at a 31-goal and 42-assist (73 points) per 82 game pace.

Landeskog would be playing for the first time since February 2nd. Instead of skating in his familiar spot with Nathan MacKinnon and Mikko Rantanen, Landeskog skated on the third line with J.T. Compher in Friday's practice.
