Landeskog Remains Sidelined as Avalanche Hope for Girard's Return Ahead of Playoffs
Tuesday, April 16th, 2024
Colorado Avalanche's leader, Gabriel Landeskog, has been seen attending team sessions and watching practices from the sidelines due to his recovery from knee surgery. However, Coach Jared Bednar has indicated that his return to the ice is not imminent.
Since his last appearance in the victory that secured the 2022 Stanley Cup, the team has operated without an interim captain, leaning instead on experienced players like Andrew Cogliano and alternate captains such as Nathan MacKinnon, Mikko Rantanen, and Cale Makar to guide the team.
In other news, defenseman Samuel Girard is showing signs of improvement after a concussion, actively participating in practice drills. Additionally, Mikko Rantanen, who also suffered a concussion, is getting back into his groove, notably scoring a goal in a match against Las Vegas.
