Landeskog speaks to media, says he feels good, could go on weekend California road trip.
The Avs could use the services of their young captain as they have struggled without him. Monitor his status in the next couple days to see if he will be in the lineup against Los Angeles, Anaheim or San Jose.

Gabe Landeskog back at practice with #Avs. Orange jersey on though
Landeskog hasn't played since January 26th when he was hit hard by Sharks defenceman Brad Stuart and suffered multiple injuries. The Avalanche need him back but aren't going to rush their young captain. It appears as if he is still at least a week away from returning.

Landeskog did not skate with Avs this morning. Won't play tonight

Landeskog will sit out tonight. Issues with head and leg.
Landeskog took a big hit from San Jose D-man Brad Stuart on Saturday. He only has one goal on the year, and it is unknown how long he'll be out but it doesn't appear to be serious.

#Avs Gabe Landeskog sick and questionable for tonight against ANA
Landeskog probably doesn't play tonight after being held out of practice. The rookie has 18 goals and 43 points in 70 games.
March 12, 2012, 1:58 p.m.
Young Avalanche forwards Matt Duchene and Gabriel Landeskog missed practice Sunday but both are expected to play in Monday's game against the Dallas Stars at the Pepsi Center.
Sounds like Landeskog needed a maintenance day. Even though he only has five goals and 10 points through 23 games, the rookie has contributed at all ends of the ice.

Also reunited today was the line of Gabriel Landeskog, Ryan O’Reilly and Daniel Winnik.

Not that there seemed any doubt, but it is now official: Gabriel Landeskog will spend the rest of the season with the Avalanche.
Landeskog should stick on the second line all season as he continues to wow on the ice.

At practice today, No. 92 skated on a line with Paul Stastny and David Jones.
Certainly a good sign for those invested in the 2nd overall pick. Landeskog captained the Kitchener Rangers last season, leading them in goals with 36 and finishing third on the team with 66 points in 53 games. He remains a front-runner for the Calder Memorial Trophy in the preseason.

He’s still just 18, but Landeskog has a man’s body, the demeanor to use it to push opponents off the puck, and the elite skills to create offense. He’s set to play on Colorado’s second line – but easily could jump to the first forward unit – and is a lock to be in the Calder mix all season long.
Last season, the three Calder Trophy finalists scored 30 goals -- which would be a great season for the former Kitchener Ranger. In leagues with deeper rosters, the 18-year-old would definitely make a solid addition to your fantasy roster. The 2011 second overall pick also is a must-have in any dynasty league.
Sept. 21, 2011, 9:56 p.m.
The Colorado Avalanche Hockey Club announced today that it has signed first-round draft choices Gabriel Landeskog and Duncan Siemens each to three-year, entry-level contracts.
