Landeskog scored a goal on seven shots, doled out two hits and added two PIM in Wednesday's 2-1 overtime win over the Coyotes.
EDGE Analysis
The Avalanche controlled most of the game but only mustered one goal in regulation. Landeskog spared them from a worse result with his tally in the final minute of overtime. The Swede now has seven goals, 16 points, 67 shots on net and 32 hits through 22 contests. With Nathan MacKinnon back from an upper-body injury, Landeskog should see a bump in offense while alongside his usual center.

Landeskog scored a power-play goal on on four shots and added three assists in Wednesday's 4-0 win over the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
Landeskog's three assists were all at even strength. The 28-year-old hadn't registered more than two points in a game this season entering Wednesday. The Swede now has six goals, eight assists, 53 shots on net and a plus-1 rating in 18 appearances.

Landeskog scored a power-play goal on two shots in Monday's 6-2 loss to the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
Landeskog gave the Avalanche a 2-0 lead with his second-period tally. It's his fifth goal of the year, and he's added five assists, 49 shots on goal and 27 hits in 17 appearances. Landeskog has three points on the power play -- if he can start clicking more with the man advantage, his overall numbers will likely improve.

Landeskog scored a power-play goal on three shots in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Coyotes.
EDGE Analysis
Landeskog gave the Avalanche a 3-1 lead early in the third period. His tally stood as the game-winner Saturday. The 28-year-old Swede is up to four goals and nine points through 16 contests. He's added 47 shots on net, 10 PIM and 27 hits. While he won't score quite as much as linemates Nathan MacKinnon or Mikko Rantanen, Landeskog's physical play helps to make up the difference.

Landeskog started Monday's game on the third line but was promoted to the top line for the start of the third period in a 3-0 loss to Vegas. He had four shots and one hit over 17:29 of ice time.
EDGE Analysis
Landeskog returned from COVID-19 protocols Saturday, when he skated on the third line, and he opened Monday's game on that unit. However, head coach Jared Bednar tweaked his lines mid-game Monday, likely looking to trigger the offense, by putting him back on the top line, where he made a home prior to missing games.

Landeskog had two shots on net over 19:01 of ice time in Saturday's 3-2 win over Vegas.
EDGE Analysis
Landeskog, who was activated off the COVID-19 protocol list earlier this week, played for the first time since Feb. 2. That layoff may have factored into the decision to have him skate on the third line -- he's normally on the top unit with Nathan MacKinnon and Mikko Rantanen. It's unclear if the third line will be his new home, perhaps a way to balance scoring among the lines, but it should be noted that Landeskog maintained his spot on the power play, logging nearly six minutes while Golden Knights were in the penalty box.

Landeskog is available to play in Saturday's game against Vegas, Adrian Dater of Colorado Hockey Now reports.
EDGE Analysis
Colorado coach Jared Bednar said "all of the COVID guys" are eligible to play, including Landeskog, who said he "feels great" and is "ready to go." The Colorado forward missed two games while in COVID-19 protocols and hasn't played in a game since Feb. 2.

Landeskog was cleared from the league's COVID-19 protocol Wednesday, Peter Baugh of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Landeskog was expected to play in Saturday's outdoor game against Vegas in Lake Tahoe, and this news will cement his status. The 28-year-old has racked up three goals and eight points this season, and he's expected to hop right back into his top-line role. In addition to Landeskog, Tyson Jost was also activated from the protocol list Wednesday.

Landeskog (COVID-19 protocol) is expected to play in Saturday's outdoor game against Vegas in Lake Tahoe, Adrian Dater of Colorado Hockey Now reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Avalanche returned to action Sunday after a pause in the season due to COVID-19 protocols, and they played without Landeskog and several other regulars. In addition to Landeskog, head coach Jared Bednar expects both Tyson Jost (COVID-19 protocol) and Samuel Girard (COVID-19 protocol) to return Saturday.

Landeskog (COVID-19 protocol) won't play in Sunday's game versus the Golden Knights, Peter Baugh of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Brandon Saad is expected to flank Nathan MacKinnon on the first line as a result. It remains unclear when Landeskog will clear the league's virus protocol and return to team activities. The Avalanche's next scheduled game is Tuesday versus the Golden Knights again.
