However, this year, for the first time in a while, the Avalanche don’t have as much quality depth, and will therefore really need those top players to be present and healthy.
It would be a huge boost for us. – Jared Bednar
What led Bednar to specify that Landeskog is getting closer and closer to a return to action was, among other things, the captain’s on-ice workout two days ago.
You can see that he’s putting all his weight on his “weak” knee, which is a really good sign for the future.
Landeskog working on his turns and transitions. He puts full weight on the “bad” knee in the turn. This has to be the best he has looked so far. #Avs #GoAvsGo @TheRinkColorado pic.twitter.com/h7RRO9eSEo
