Terrible News for Avalanche Captain Gabriel Landeskog
Yesterday we received terrible news concerning Colorado Avalanche captain Gabriel Landeskog.
Landeskog, who initially went on LTIR at the beginning of October, and who underwent arthroscopic knee surgery, was given a 12-week recovery estimate.
Now, 12 weeks later, head coach Jared Bednar was brutally honest about Landeskog's return.
Gabriel Landeskog is nowhere close to returning
This will pose a serious problem for the team, who have been cursed by injuries all year. Hopefully things will turn around quickly, as the hope for a second consecutive Stanley Cup feels to be fading away.
