Avalanche captain Gabe Landeskog leaves game after crashing into Panthers net

Gabe Landeskog left the Colorado Avalanche’s game Sunday with the Florida Panthers after crashing into the opposing net and then the end boards behind it.

The Avs captain was down on the ice for several minutes after he went headfirst into the net at 1:22 of the second period. His left skate appeared to stumble, then Landeskog crashed into the Florida net and then the end boards behind it.

He was helped off the ice without using either leg to stride, and immediately down the tunnel towards the team’s locker room.

Landeskog has played in all 41 regular-season games this season.
