Gabe Landeskog has been joining his Colorado Avalanche teammates on the ice with more regularity in a tracksuit as the 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs have progressed. But it doesn’t sound like he’ll be out there in full gear in the immediate future.
Friday is the one-year anniversary of Landeskog’s cartilage transplant surgery in his right knee. The Avs have said the recovery timeline for this procedure is 12 to 16 months.
“Yeah, I don’t think he’s there yet,” Avs coach Jared Bednar said. “He is making progress, though. The work he’s doing both on and off the ice, the intensity is gradually getting greater and greater.
