Denver Post sports writer Bennett Durando opens up the Avs Mailbag periodically throughout the season. Pose an Avalanche- or NHL-related question for the Avs Mailbag.
This team has had missing links all season and just can’t seem to get everything going. Some like to talk about Nazem Kadri leaving as a main factor in the struggles, but I would argue the team misses their captain, Gabe Landeskog, more. Am I missing something with this team?

I think there’s a distinction between classifying Kadri as the biggest unfilled hole and characterizing Landeskog as the player Colorado misses most.
