One of the biggest news in the National Hockey League over the last 48 hours did not come during a regularly scheduled game, but practice. It is being reported by Rogers Sportsnet that veteran Avalanche captain Gabriel Landeskog of Stockholm, Sweden was back on the ice practicing and could soon join Colorado when they play three games in eastern Canada against the Toronto Maple Leafs (March 19), Ottawa Senators (March 20) and Montreal Canadiens (March 22). We have not seen Landeskog over the last three years at all. He has not played since June 26, 2022 (the night the Avalanche beat the Tampa Bay Lightning to win the 2022 Stanley Cup) due to a serious knee injury that has required numerous surgeries.
