Gabriel Landeskog’s 2025-26 return to the Colorado Avalanche is one of the most anticipated subjects in all of hockey. While some people are skeptical regarding whether or not he will return to the ice on time, we’ve gotten some clarity on the team’s expectations regarding their captain in the upcoming season.
