Avalanche Journal: How far can Colorado go without Gabriel Landeskog in Stanley Cup Playoffs?

Gabriel Landeskog’s right knee remains a mystery worthy of Sherlock Holmes, but you’ll have to wait until next season to find out if he cracks the case.

The Avalanche captain has officially called it quits for his 2022-23 season that never was, ruling himself out for the Stanley Cup Playoffs while he tries to figure out how to cure the cartilage injury under his patella. Landeskog is still consulting medical experts about next steps to take this offseason, and a fourth surgery since 2020 is an option.

Sure sounds like a plight that will bedevil Landeskog and the Avalanche at least into next season, if not longer.
