The 31-year-old hasn't appeared in a game since June of 2022, and it's not yet clear when he'll return to action.

Avalanche's Gabriel Landeskog: Might return early in 2024-25
Gabriel Landeskog (knee) isn't likely to be available Oct. 9 for Colorado's regular-season opener, but he might play not long after that, per Tom Gulitti of NHL.com on Saturday.Landeskog has been skating over the summer, and while there's no timetable for his return, coach Jared Bednar said there's increasing optimism that the Colorado Avalanche captain won't have to go too deep into the 2024-25 campaign before making his season debut. Landeskog hasn't played since June 26, 2022, but before experiencing injury issues, he was an elite forward. After shaking off some rust, he could produce at about a point-per-game pace while serving in a top-six capacity and working on the first power-play unit.

Avalanche's Gabriel Landeskog: Not ready to retire
Gabriel Landeskog (knee) will not be retiring and is focusing on returning for the 2024-25 campaign, Meghan Angley of DNVR Colorado Avalanche reports Thursday.Landeskog's future was understandably in doubt considering he hasn't played in an NHL game since June of 2022. If given the all-clear ahead of next season, the 31-year-old winger should be in contention for a top-six role and should still be capable of putting up 25-30 goals as long as he's able to remain healthy.

Avalanche's Gabriel Landeskog: Takes ice Thursday
Gabriel Landeskog (knee) was able to get onto the ice Thursday for the first time since undergoing cartilage transplant surgery in May, Brennan Vogt of The-Rink.com reports.Landeskog's recovery is going to be a slow process, which is why the team ruled him out for the entirety of the 2023-24 campaign even prior to his surgery. Still, it's a step in the right direction for the 31-year-old winger, who will no doubt hope to return to being a 50-plus point producer starting with the 2024-25 season. For now, Landeskog's presence on the ice will only be a factor for dynasty/keeper formats as he still makes sense as a future stash player given his offensive upside.
